Mikkael's new residency
Mikkael's new residency in Bristol. Dates tbc.
Check them out !!
"Notorious Duvet Gang is a bunch of Bristol based wronguns who sporadically gather to indulge in a touch of the old "Duvet Vous?"
We have been hosting parties - either indoors or out, for the past 9 years with a firm dedication to all things House.
During this time we’ve enlisted the help of friends and colleagues such as Inland Knights, Kinky Movement, Jazzy Eye wear, Deep Cartel , SAS and Smokescreen, to name but a few.
Fortunately, recent years have seen a resurgence in the number of people attending such gatherings of debauchery (or is it just the fucking good music?) so we have decided to indulge on a new no holes barred venture in the centre of this cider swilling town."

Bobby & Klein
Bobby and Klein are French duo GIOM and VINZ, from Niort, France. Originally a drummer and a bass player influenced by Funk, Disco, Acid-jazz and Hip-Hop, they started DJing and making beats together in 2001. At first inspired by the French Touch sound of the late 90s, it was discovering the likes of Derrick Carter and Dj Sneak that really got them hooked on house music. After many years spent producing music, and working on their sound, GIOM and VINZ began to send their music to record labels. In late 2005, their track “Party All Night” was requested by DJ Chuck Daniels for his then upcoming "Night Moves" mix cd. The track quickly gained the approval of many top underground house DJs, such as Jason Hodges, DJ Heather, Raoul Belmans and Jacob London, as well as the one and only DJ Sneak. Sneak eventually included “Party All Night” on the Oomph Records 2006 Miami sampler cd, and asked the 2 Frenchmen to play at his London residency, SNEAKBEATS at Ministry Of Sound. Bobby & Klein now have a few releases under their belt, including their remix of UK Hip Hop greats The Nextmen ("Let It Roll", on Antidote Records), Bryan Jones' "Chicago Jack" on Ringside Recordings as well as their own debut EP "G-String Blues" on San Francisco's top label Guesthouse Music. Upcoming work includes the official release of "Party All Night" on the great Spatula City record label as well as several EPs and remixes coming out on higly respected labels such as Lingo and Flatpack Traxx. They are currently spending time working and recording in their studios in London and Paris.

If you are new to Bristol, want to shake your pants and are starving for house music, there is only one way to sort yourself out. It's called "Duvet vous?".
Those guys throw the best house party in Bristol.
Believe me or not... just judge by yourself:
Once a month at the Queens Head in Eastron Road, and once in a while at the Black Swan ....
Just keep an ear on the ground
It's probabaly the most influent free party crew in uk for the past 10 years and they never stop to impress by their guest and the quality of their parties. They hold one of the most powerful (taylor made for house music please) sound system so if you never came across a smoke screen party then you have missed quite a lot of the uk house scene.
So just a thought, go to http://www.smokescreensoundsystem.co.uk/ ,
Find yourself a nice party, check by yourself and I promise you won't regret it !!!
Ok so we called our label TRENDY MULLET! WTF is all that about you may ask? Well this industry seems to contain so many attitudes and over inflated egos and to be fair we’ve come across a few of these in the short time we’ve been putting on nights, making tracks and playing out. There’s nothing worse than a Barry Big Bollocks who in fact isn’t a Barry Big Bollocks! We as people have neither attitude or an over inflated ego and therefore we take the same approach to our music. That’s why some of our releases may contain a little quirkiness! The occasional slice of funk, bit of a cheeky sample and at times lashing of techy sauce! It's music to make you shake your buts, we wont follow any passing fad to stay up with what the masses are buying. If we dont feel it we wont make it. Our aim is simply to put out quality tracks made to make people dance, from the deeper stuff to jackin’ right through to some proper tech house. We’ll even throw in some down tempo beats for the after hours. To date we've done this using a blend of young up and coming talent fused with some more well known players on the scence. We’re only releasing in digital format at the moment and you can find all of our releases on either stompy.com or juno download. We’re always on the look out for tracks so if you have anything you feel may go with our vibe send em over to; trendymullet@hotmail.co.uk
