The Ransom Crew put on a Boxing Day Special at Club Splash Stroud. All the crew attending to make this a fun night for all. Sets came from Donovan Smith, Access, SE and others. Utilizing the local 14K "Dirt Sound System" the boys proceeded to shake the windows and rattle the bar!
Access warmed things up nicely, testing out the system with some fresh and funky beats such as "Like A Bird" and "Barcelona". Tight mixing (ive got the minidisc to prove it) made way for more floor fillers as the night rolled on. Some of the forthcoming material coming on Infrared was showcased including the epic "Caporeira" and a new remix of a Groove Armada's "Final Shakedown". Closing the first set of the night with "Start The Fire" the floor was filled and the venue was getting hot.
Continuing that party vibe with some older jump up classics were the "Dirt Sound System" resident Dj's. Playing some Undiluted tracks and some Fresh Kutt bits the boys kept the crowd happy and the party lively.
After copious amounts of Budweiser a slightly worse for wear Access went back to the turntables joined by fellow Ransom resident DJ SE for some back 2 back biznizz. Playing for enjoyment and for the local crowd of familiar faces the Ransom duo dropped tunes both old and new.
Donovan rolled through the door at 01:00am to the crowds approval and took to the technics with glee!!! A bouncy set of V Recordings and Full Cycle style floor tracks that brought the night to a happy finale. Tracks featured "Scrambled Eggs", "Freestyle Mambo" and the T.I. remix of "Like A Bird". Much has to be said for the vocal talents of MC Dread who was on top form all night ably asissted by the local MC Alpha.
A good night was had by all and we hope to continue last year as we did this one at Ransom.
Shouts to Russ, Oz, Sam, Donovan, Pavan, Mikel, Dave, , Junior, John, Luke, Lawson and all others that couldnt make it. Peace
