Tyler Stadius - Fragile @ World HQ (Thursday 14th August)

my m8 who is the new ressie @ kellys in port rush warmed up for Cass the other week

cass is

perception is one of my all time favs

love opera, genesis and mind rewind as well

nice list mate

phil keiran is quality, his mix of acid rave music on shine records is soooo good

Never actually seen him but heard a few sets and he doesn't play like his productions with Slide like what was relased on Fire. Loads of breakbeat and tech-y stuff.

I'd love to see him play, we should start a 'Bring Cass to Newcastle' petition. Or even better, everyone should come along to the first Fragile to check out Tyler Stadius and tell Paul yourself!! The more people at the first night the more chance another ones gonna happen and the more chance we'll get Cass!!!

yeah, his sets arent as proggy as his releases are they??

i know theyre darker, bit more minimal

i aint up here for the first fragile, but hopefully it will be success then i can go to the next one!!

I'm m8s with the resident DJ and owner of the club shine and the label Alan Simms. Shine records is going off ATM

Think thats probably why Fire records didn't last. A lot of the tunes they were releasing near the end really didn't seem like the kind of stuff Cass or Lee Burridge would play. And whats the point in releasing stuff on your own label that your not gonna be totally into.

So far Cass's label Sabotage Systems is a bit more of a reflection of his sets. Check out Cass's recent '8' mix album for what I mean. It also features a track by our own Paul Lancaster, 'Don't Stop Burning'. Quality Stuff!!!!

Me too, lush tune.

yeah, id agree with that

not a bad bloke to be mates with eh??

and its a track that IMO wasnt spoiled with the vocal that was added to it

gives me goosebumps everytime

didnt know fire had stopped. pity, there was some good stuff on it, like

ben shaw- so strong
cass/slide/ d.ten- fever rising

2 of my favs

ive heard of that 8 mix album, but i aint heard it.
will look out for it now!

I agree, the tune would be basic as fuck without the vocal, quality all round.

Yeah, it folded quite a while back. They had some quality releases but in my opinion seemed to go bit downhill (too many vocal tracks) at around the same time they changes the record sleeves with a few exceptions like Fever Rising.

Not to worry though, now Cass has Sabotage and Slide and Lee Burridge both have started their own labels but I forget what either of them are called.

you must not get out much, loads of people play tech house in this area

not on this board

That the problem your on this board all the time!!! YOU NEED TO GET OUT MORE

I spend all day at work infront of a computer I don't use the net at home

Yeah, yeah more underground funk and less drums please

Fire Recordings was one of my favourite labels but Cass, Slide + Lee Burridge were all moving in different directions as DJs and prooducers.

Lee Burridge wanted to concentrate more on his Tyrant project with Craig Richards as well as his own busy DJ schedule and albums for GU. Cass' new label Sabotage Systems is putting out some quality music from a broad range of styles (prog, tech-house, acid house + breaks) and Slide is showing his true talent with a whole host of amazing remixes and productions on his new label Frontier.
