I went along with some friends to the Icebox on Friday night to catch my usual dose of Friday night Bassix.

They were starting a new DJ called Chis Freebase from 10-12 and I arrived at 10.15. Chris's set was imaginative, fresh and most of all it had some life.

Too much recently Prog DJ's have been playing really slow dark and monotonous sets. There was none of that Friday.
He picked up the pace early and kept me interested all the way through.
There were even people up dancing from quiet early.

He played for 2 hours and at no time was I bored.
Good to see someone put together an interesting and fun Prog set that made me get up time and again to dance and I'd only had a beer.

Did anyone else get to see Chris's set, I'd like to hear an opinion as I am very obviously biased.

I've got to agree with Lambretta.
I heard most of Chris Freebase set on Friday night and he was really good.
I knew some of the tracks and those I didn't certainly made me listen.

Good one mate.
PS Is anyone going to Sweet Chilli on Dec 8th. I'll be there.

Here here, I had a great time. This guy Freebase has talent, really got me going. He was playing a more energetic prog house than I am used to, and it really hit the spot for a Friday weekend kick-off. Definitely checking Bassix out again next Friday, but Freebase won't be playing till Friday-week [7th December]. Put it on your calendar kids!

Freebase was alright maybe ended up playing a bit too hard for the last 1/3 of his set. Heard he plays some good house music though... wouldn't mind hearing that.

Yeah I've heard the same Ton-e. Would be pretty good to hear.
Got to agree with Jully about 7th of Dec.
Pity Sweet Chilli is on the next night. I'll go and see Chris again and then head home for some sleep so I am nice and rested for a great night of Prog, courtsey of the Sweet Chilli crew.
