Last
month DJ Dust made his way down to London where
Terminalhead, residents of the Star Bar breaks room
at John Digweed's Bedrock night, were hosting a
launch party for the second 'Y3K' album with
special guests DJ Hyper and General MIDI. Here is
his report.

After
wandering around Nelson's Column looking
at pigeons, myself and my good lady
finally got to Bedrock to find that the
guest list was longer than the cue to get
in!! After the door man had taken 10
minutes looking for our names with
everyone staring at you with "Look at dem
blaggers" written over their faces, we
finally got in.
We
walked the steps to the Star Bar as the
bass hit me square in the face. Mr. Spee
from Terminalhead stood in front of me he
and asked if I'd seen a ghost!! was I that
scared!! Yes Nightnurse
was banging out bass heavy dirty funked up
nu skool. The room was already packed and
the floor was full already!
Nightnurse
finished with Vigi & Flip's 'Freak
Frequency' (the original mix) and
Uberzone
vs Rennie Pilgrem: Black
Widow.
Mr. Spee was back and forth MCing before
introducing the Terminalhead
Sound System who play the tech breaks
style we all love, dropping the
Terminalhead remix of Hyper & Dylan's
'Trigger' before finishing with the Timo
Maas mix of Azzido da Bass 'Dooms night' -
are there any other mixes in existence I
don't think so..!

DJ
Hyper,
man of the night, then steps to the decks
to unleash his Y3K sound as well as a mix
of breaks techy progressive that makes him
a true breaks pioneer with all those
secret records that no else can get hold
off, Hyper has 'em and uses them to full
effect. From BT:
Fibonacci Sequence
to the Plump DJs 'Scam' that is the tune
of the night - hairs go up on the back of
my neck and I get the uncontrollable urge
to scream!! Even Graham Gold was seen
wandering around and hovering around the
DJ box giving props to Hyper.
General
Midi
takes the decks for a more breaks trance
set with deep percussion and basslines. He
raises the roof with a few choice remixes
and he's got a lot to choose from as he's
been a busy boy of late - Silvio
Ecomo: Standing (General MIDI
remix)
a personal fave - before doing a
back-to-back with Hyper to finish off the
night.
