Tallywhacker says hi...

My musical journey started when I was flyering events in London and nearly finished when I ran off to ibiza with a van full of roller skates.  I got bitten by the music bug and diagnosed with dance fever. It's taken me all sorts of weird and wonderful places; 

I’ve warmed up for Rub’N’Tug, I’ve rocked out with Mick Jones under the arches in Ladbroke Grove, I’ve remixed U2, I’ve done various gigs with former members Africa 70 and Egypt 80, I’ve destroyed Art Deco Pubs in South London with a former member of Can, and I accidentally electrocuted James Jagger. These are some of the memories represented in my sets and better ones are imminent… Looking forward to sharing some great music with you tools!

Tallywhacker(soundcloud) started DJing in London about 15 years ago, playing with various disco and festival crews.  Together with Metermaid he ended a 30 year absence of Roller Discos on the Balearic island of Ibiza.  He now plays Festivals, Clubs, Bars, Weddings, and Bar Mitzvahs in Shanghai. He’s preparing a special Balearic Disco set for the Lakeside Weekender.

Stack(soundcloud) brings the funk. He is a long time DJ at Dragon Burn Roller Disco Camp as well as The Circus Dome Camp. Expect some funky grooves alone side electronics for good vibes. Tangsmash is a great bass player but also drops dance music at times, a bit of house and a bit of techno. There might just be a dance off in his set.
