Space Cowboy
 If
you like Fatboy Slim, Tim Deluxe, or even The Naptunes , you should
check this one out! Space Cowboy spins all kinds of stuff: funky
disco house, breaky hip hop, “oriental” tunes and even
the cheesy Prince cover ‘I would Die 4 U’. Under the name
of Loop Da Loop, he’s been doing some remix works with Lisa
Stansfiled, The Wiseguys, Afrika Bmbaataa etc, etc... This guy’s
got talent! He’s also looking for singers and rappers for his
new project (www.spacecowboyonline.com)
so don’t miss this chance to catch the man live if you fancy
yourself on the cover of a music magazine.

X-PRESS 2 Japan Tour
 If
you have never heard X-PRESS 2 before, you are missing a lot. Even
if you don’t recognize them by the name, you definitely know
their song ‘Lazy’ if you’ve been anywhere near a
club in the last two years. One of the UK’s biggest and best
dance groups, comprising Ashley Breedle and DJ Diesel from the legendary
Black Science Orchestra plus DJ Rocky, they are finally coming to
Osaka! This crazy trio uses six turntables at one time and plays
catchy tech-house with a progressive bent and we like them very
much indeed. Even better, they are playing at cool new America-mura
venue, Fanj Twice. Bound to be a blast.
