He duly obliged and above and beyond the call of duty, he has done us proud with a couple of storming cuts that have been two of our very own Dave Seaman’s secret weapons in recent weeks. ‘Pony Up’ is a genre straddling peak timer driven by an hypnotic percussive riff and featuring a couple of explosive drops whilst ‘Bring It Back’ is a barnstorming slice of main room tech house that weaves it’s way to yet another dancefloor destroying payoff. Seriously guys, these are not to be missed. Our casa es su casa!

For further evidence, check out this little vid of Mr Seaman playing Pony Up in Mexico recently…

Annexe is named after the legendary back room at Cream at Nation in Liverpool. You’re still a resident there. How is it compared to ten years ago?
And can you tell us some of your favourite memories from there?

Yeah, Cream’s my home.. Well it’s not weekly anymore they just do 3 or 4 massive shows a year at nation now, it’s great to be a part of,they all sell out and the crowd there is up for anything so it makes my job really easy. In a lot of ways cream is bigger than ever right now..

I’ve been closing my sets with ‘The Annexe’ at the last few gigs and the response has been unreal, hence the name. Favourite memories in there for me as a clubber are of course the legendary Laurent Garnier 6 hour sets

And what about Liverpool clubbing in general. We hear good things about Circus, Chibuku and RIAC. Is it just as healthy as its always been?

Liverpool clubbing is actually better than ever i think, almost too good for the size of the city.. Every week there’s something great to go too, which makes it really competitive between the promoters but fantastic for everyone else

You still run 3 Beat records online since the shop closed. How are you finding that? Is there still a solid demand for vinyl or is it just a matter of time before the format dies forever?

No the shop is still open too.. It’s going really well, certain styles are still selling well; disco/house/d&b/techno.. But otherwise we’ve shifted more emphasis towards tickets, merch and cds..I really hope vinyl never dies but of course it’s becoming increasingly difficult.

Which 4 people (dead or alive, real or fictitious) would you invite to your perfect dinner party?

John Lennon, Robbie Fowler, Bob Dylan & my dad.. purely for the weird conversation, as well as meeting a few heroes

What was the number 1 record when you were born? If you don’t know, give us you’re date of birth and we’ll tell you.

Chaka Khan ‘I Feel for You’ so wikipedia tells me.. mad

What was the last album you bought and can you give us a few other recommendations of albums to check out?

Well I’ve only just really got onto ‘The Black Keys’ (after seeing them at Glastonbury).. So i’ve basically been catching up with their albums of late, really really good band, if you’re into Hendrix/Zeppelin etc.. you’ll love them!

What 3 things are the worst about touring?

The positives massively outway the negatives, but i do miss my family and dog when i’m away for too long

Tell us about your upcoming plans over the next few months.

In the next few months,lots of gigs including; Silo Aztec, Format four, Ministry, Cream etc.. Aswell as running the record shop and spending lots of time in the studio.. I’m going to New york with the Mrs in February too, which will be a welcome break

Jemmy & Aztec ‘The Annexe’ is available to download now from our own online store and from Beatport.

Jemmy will be playing at Cream for the party on Boxing Day Night. Check the Cream website for further details.

Release date – 28th October

Tell us how you came to be called Fusion F & Come T?

How is the clubbing scene in Poland at the moment?
We really enjoy the Polish music scene, we have many great events and almost every week we play to full dancefloors. People here understand the music and really appreciate the DJ’s. Sometimes we do our own events with guests DJ’s from abroad and they are always impressed with our clubs and the enthusiasm of our clubbers.

What is your own personal favourite production or remix you’ve done together? The one you’re most proud of?
Our favourite tracks that we have done are “Superb Fly” from Baroque Records and “Native Place” from our own label Fruit Machine. From remixes we really like “Gigitech” for Presslaboys and “Favoured Nations” for Trafik. We are the most proud of working with the likes of Audio Therapy on tracks “Wonder” and “Green Housing Estate” and also with Global Underground on the track “Our History”.

What is the most difficult thing facing young producers starting out today?
For us it is difficult to find the time we need as the 21st century is a crazy time and everything is in a big hurry. But we don’t think about it, we only want to do good music.

Which 4 people (dead or alive, real or fictitious) would you invite to your perfect dinner party?
Its difficult to find even one person with whom we want to both meet, maybe Paris Hilton is a good choice ha ha but we have chosen John Murphy, the English film composer. His music from movies like “28 Weeks Later” or “Sunshine” is amazing!

What was the number 1 record when you were born? If you don’t know, give us you’re date of birth and we’ll tell you.
We are young guys (Fusion F 1986) and (Come T 1990). When we were born we just thought about a cuddle to the breast of a sexy nurse, without asking her what was top of the charts.

What was the last album/compilation you bought and can you give us a few other recommendations of albums to check out?
Our last albums that we bought is “None But The Brave” by Trafik on Global Underground and “Cavalier” made by Antix on Iboga Records. We also bought compilation “Globaltech” from Babylon Rec, where you could find Progressive/Tech stuff released in the last few years. In last year we really enjoyed the meldodic techno and techouse style with little bits of progressive. Usually we are buying stuff from artists like: Egostereo, Eelke Kleijn, Zoo Brasil, Guy J or Christian Smith.

What 3 things are the worst about touring?
We see only good sides of touring but if we need to select worst things it will be: delays, climate change and traffic.

Tell us about your upcoming plans over the next few months.
We wonder about releasing our first album really soon, we think its good time to make it!. Also we are planning releases on our own label Fruit Machine where we want to cooperate with artists like: Rui Da Silva, Markus Lange, Presslaboys, Nikola Gala, Paul Jackson, Federico Epis, Cid Inc or Alex Dolby. As Djs we have a lot of plans with big and known gigs in Poland and Europe.

The hour long broadcast will be aired exclusively by Frisky Radio on the third Tuesday of every month before being syndicated on to terrestrial stations worldwide the following weekend.
“If I had a grain of rice for every time I’ve been approached to do a radio show over the years I’d probably be able to make you a risotto”, said Dave “but it’s never really felt right until now. Finally I think we’re in a position to deliver a consistently exciting and relevant programme that will cover a broad selection of electronic club music. Needless to say, I’m very excited.”

The first Radio Therapy show will be broadcast on Frisky Radio on August 17th at 8pm GMT/ 9pm CET.

So whether you like it quirky and techy (Open Your Eyes on Baile Music), warm and emotive (Atlantium EP on Urbantorque), or deep and soulful (Without You on Smalldog Records), Neil will have something right up your street over the next three months.

The New York and Moscow based DJ/Production partnership Monaque, made up of Alex Monakhov and Serge Que are quickly establishing themselves as a force to be reckoned with and one of the hotly tipped names to watch this year. The duo have deep roots in electronic music dating back almost 20 years and has seen them residing at some of the worlds most prestigious parties held by the likes of Godskitchen, Renaissance, Cream and Global Underground playing alongside some of the most famous names in the industry such as Sasha, James Zabiela, Pete Tong and John Digweed to name but a few.

As well as the CD release there will also be singles on Renaissance along with Hernan Cattaneo’s ‘Sudbeat‘ label and forthcoming releases to feature remixes from Jim Rivers , Sei A and Bedrock superstar Guy J it would seem as if their profile is set to rise to the next level and above.

On the production front, their ‘Cobra’ has been signed to Yoshitoshi and was one of the biggest tracks of WMC Miami, whilst their brand new remixes for Global Underground and Audio Therapy are now ready to go.

Further remix projects for Renaissance, Shinichi and SAW await them in the coming months as the list of labels looking to work with the duo grows every day.

Two brand new original EPs for their M.O.D.E. label have been completed and are due out in May and July and with support for their music coming in from Sasha, Dubfire, Booka Shade and Boratto, 2010 looks set to be a great year for M.O.D.E.

Over two decades in its long and illustrious career, amid various walls and open spaces, Shindig has boxed an uncompromising vibe together with a genuine subculture that is cultivated not bought. Since way back in 1992, Shindig has been responsible for bringing the best talent across the House, Techno and Electronic worlds to the North East; Mention the term “House Music”, amongst Newcastle’s proud cobbled alleys of clubbing and Shindig’s reputation will most certainly come up in conversation. Shindig are set to host two suitably special Newcastle events which kick off a UK Tour, celebrating their 18th Anniversary for the duration of 2010.

On Saturday 1st May, Claude Von Stroke will be blowing out the candles at World Headquarters in the good company of Get Physical’s and BBC Radio1’s Heidi.  In the comfortable surroundings of downstairs, OOFT Music alongside the creative trio of One20, will be providing a hotpot of exclusive edits, deep-as-you-like house, forgotten funk and more. This is followed by a return to Digital Newcastle on Friday 11th June with someone who’s been on board for the entire journey…Shindig is extremely proud to announce the long awaited return of Sasha, who will be joined by Tel Aviv’s finest tech export Guy J for what is set to be a date to remember in 2010’s clubbing calendar.

Shindig’s 2010 Tour powered by Pioneer will be visiting our favorite clubs and venues across the UK and as far as Dubai; rolling into Circus (Liverpool), Back To Basics (Leeds), Sankeys (Manchester), Yello (Belfast) Digital (Brighton & Newcastle) Ultragroove (Edinburgh) Koola (Newquay) Riff Raff (Middlesbourgh) and more to be confirmed with our tightly knit residents and uncompromising Shindig vibe.

As clubs come and go, with today’s scene a far cry from the early days of house music, what started as a small party for friends; has firmly stood the test of time …Shindig18 – “Growing Old is Mandatory… Growing Up Is Optional…”
