DMV D&B EVENT NEWS: 11.10.16 NATTY DUB USA Tour

ELM Imprint presents: Natty Dub USA tour with Saxxon and Cabbin Fever. Saturday November 19th 2016. Hyattsville, MD

Elm Imprint and Digital is very proud to announce the NATTY DUB USA TOUR!
With SAXXON and CABIN FEVER.




DATE: Saturday November 19th 2016.
LOCATION: 3129 Pennsy Dr, Hyattsville, MD 20785-1508, USA
COST: $15 (presale) / $20 (at the door)

London-based Natty Dub Recordings was established in September of 2012 by Cabin Fever UK in order to provide an outlet for their own style of Jungle/Drum & Bass music. Straight away Natty Dub became an instant success with the masses, having a succession of #1 chart spots on DNB Arena, Juno, Trackitdown, and Beatport to name a few. Chances are, you have skanked out to many-a-cut from the platoon of bad boys over at Natty Dub. 









SAXXON (UK):
Son to a Jazz musician and a Motown fanatic, and brother to a large group of siblings, each guiding him from birth to appreciate all the various forms of soulful music.

Jumping on a pair of turntables before he was 10, with Jungle music just emerging, Saxxon was mixing up the sound where ever and when ever he could get his hands on the 1210’s – Jungle/Drum & Bass has been his love ever since.

His sets feature a balanced mix of upfront forward-looking heavy party vibes music, his style of liquid energy vibes & unique dubplate remixes of well-known jungle/dnb classics, and the freshest “straight-from-the-studio” original music than no other DJ can lay their hands on.

With releases lined up in 2016 on Spearhead/ V/ Critical/ Soul Trader/ Liondub/ Ruffneck Ting & Natty Dub & more TBA.

CABIN FEVER (UK)
Undoubtedly one of the most exciting and fastest rising talents to have emerged from the UK Drum & Bass scene in recent years, Cabin Fever UK has been in huge demand across the UK and Europe.
Producer/DJ, Malachai (formerly one-half of Nightbreed, known for the seminal D&B smash “Pack of Wolves” on Ram Records), along with vocalist, Regina, make up Cabin Fever UK.

Renowned for the ability to select and deliver for any crowd – Cabin Fever UK will deliver the big vibes from start to finish. To date, Cabin Fever UK have performed at major events such as Glastonbury Festival (the UK’s biggest festival), City Flow Festival (Belgium’s No. 1 D&B Festival), and Random Concept.

Cabin Fever UK’s releases consistently receive support from premier league influential DJs across the D&B spectrum including Andy C, DJ Hype, Bryan Gee, Ray Keith, DJ Hazard, Noisia, The Upbeats, and Heist to name a few.

In fact, Cabin Fever UK releases have been so popular, they stormed the Drum&Bass Arena charts for weeks on end keeping the likes of the mighty Ram Records and Playaz Recordings off the top spots.

Cabin Fever UK’s 2013 discography reads as a who’s who in D&B label land with releases on Ram Records, Viper Recordings, Radius Records, Smokin’ Riddims, Grid Recordings, Chronic Records, and Co-Lab Recordings amongst others.

Responsible for the recent dancefloor anthem “Hard Goin” (on Co-Lab Recordings), the tune has been featured in most DJ’s sets around the globe for the most part of 2013 and 2014— the track also found itself on Andy C’s mixed CD “Nightlife 6″ on Ram Records.

Cabin Fever UK’s has also been releasing music under their own imprint, Natty Dub Recordings, which is run Patrick Moran ( Patman ) , and it has been developing at a rapid pace. Cabin Fever UK’s Natty Dub Recordings has a distinct branding and sound that is entrenched in jungle’s rich roots.
Cabin Fever already blessed the global D&B community with 11 high-impact releases on the imprint, 8 of which have achieved #1 status on the Drum&Bass Arena charts, and top 10 status on every other reputable download store.

As I'm only one part of this evening of D&B delights let me tell you about the full cast of characters I'm playing with:

12:30 - 1:30

This brings us to me...

In case we have not been acquainted, I'm a Jungle / Drum & Bass DJ, who more often then not fines a more ragga vibe in my track selection. If you like what your hearing bounce over to http://www.fromtheannex.com for more and do come out to Transit and say hello. I would like to give a shout to Transit, VA Pressure, Tribalistix, Faction Digital Recordings & my wife for supporting me. Thank you.

I hope you all will be in attendance. Here is a little intel on on Transit & REDZONE Grill:
Nine years ago, Give Productions created the idea of a weekly EDM party in the heart of Fairfax that grew beyond expectations. We raged! We partied! We had fun! We also hit a few speed bumps along the way... A couple in fact. Fire, snow, floods, city codes...you name it, forced us to change venues a few times. We dealt with the good, and the
bad... yet felt a responsibility to keep things going, no matter the challenge.

Now we are back where all this effort began. The space that was once "Bridges" is back with a face lift!

Admission - FREE
*21 + Only* - MUST HAVE A VALID ID!!!!

TRANSIT is located at
REDZONE Grill
10560 Main St., Fairfax, Virginia 22030

*A HUGE Dance Floor

PS - On a tech note. This was shot with a 2 camera set up ( iPhone & iPad ), so I'm aware of the movie magic / inconstancy (smiling). But for being shot and edited on my devices it only took a whooping 8 hours to make something that looked decent. ba ha.
