Mixed In Sheffield – Saturday 25th April 2009

I haven’t updated this site for a while but I was asked to spread the word about this event so here goes…

‘Mixed in Sheffield’ is about electronic music made in Sheffield NOW!

Drawing from a virtual A-Z of electronic artists active NOW in Sheffield. UMSD has put together a 360 DJ mixtape of the new electronic community in Sheffield. Experimental abstract ambience to dubstep to wonky fidgety glitchety thingamy jigamy to house to minimal techno to Sheffield quirk. Toddla T to I Monster – Darqwan to Chris Duckenfield – Run Hide Survive to Hiem – Ultramegasupadeadly – Autistichi – Darlings to Sophie Toes and Ross Orton. It’s ALL in one big fat mix that is going live as a free download from www.mixedinsheffield.co.uk on 25th April. There will be a covermount mini-mix free with the next Article magazine too. The event is also a fringe event in association with Sensoria – essentially opening the festival program for them!

This is for Sheffield, and to celebrate what a bonkers selection of talent we have in this city – it’s a TOTAL TARDIS OF TALENT HERE !!!!

To mark the occasion of the Mix going live as a FREE download, and the website going live – a website that hopes to act as a forum for Sheffield electronic music culture. There is going to be a special event at Yellow Arch Studios. Spread over two rooms of glorious funktion 1 sound, the stupidly large and boundary smashing lineup will be…
