And here's my review from his set @ Fluid in Philly from early January. Don't miss this rockin show. Peace.

Well the rumors are true. I did indeed make the trek

back home (I'm originally from Philly) for 1 nite to

see Digweed's lastest prodigy live on the decks in

person. And as expected, he's a supercool, nice, andtalented bloke.

He stopped by Cue records, down the block from Fluid

(far and away the best club period between NY and

Buz), a lil after 7, did the usual photoshoot/PR stuff

with the store's staff and then spun a few records and

chatted with me and some of the store staff for a few

mins b4 heading off to dinner.

It was pretty disappointing imo that barely anyone

showed up to see him @ the store, especially since it

was promoted on this site and elsewhere (that's not a

slag at anyone in particular, more a comment on how

small Philly's own breaks scene is). We talked about a

few of the tracks on his comp and he said he too is

working on an album hopefully for release later in the

year, but definitely not on his own label since he

thought that'd be a conflict of interest.

He also told me his plans are to be here in NY in

March and he's quite looking forward to it since he's

never played here before. January isn't happening b/c

they couldn't find a venue, as Draco announced on this

board himself, and as others up here have told me. So

mark your calendars NY, with him, the Plumps, and Soul

of Man all tentatively slated to be here, March'll bea heavy month.

He also mentioned to me a few places over here he was

really looking forward to, but unfortunately he was

standing right under a speaker that drowned him out

and I rather foolishly neglected to ask him to repeat

himself. However, the one name I did catch was

Spundae, so LA/SF get ready for some great shows next

week since he's amped to see you guys.

The set itself was quite nice and the vibe @ Fluid is

as lively as any club I've seen, especially

considering Philly's breaks scene is even smaller than

NY's, so a few local DJs told me anyway. Hyper drew

heavily on his album and kept it pretty proper and

bangin in a nu skooly, acidic, bassy sound music wise.

He must've played half or more of the tracks on

Bedrock Breaks, which in this case was basically a

good thing since so many of em are upfront, such as

Rennie's "This is Acid: Pt 2,"Terminalhead's "Give Me

Head," and Puretone's "Addicted to Bass," among many

others. He also dropped a track by the Insiders (so I

was told) that was very proper acid, right after the

Pilgrem one. Nice transition. He was very energetic,

very interactive with the crowd during his set (though

so relaxed and chilled during the warmup sets that

came before him that I almost wondered if he'd dose

off...just kidding). And he answered everyone's

questions after his set was done a little after 2

(Philly really does close way too early).

Let me add, contrary to what some have said previously

about his mixing, it is spot on tight, exciting, and

hot. His song transitions are smooth, lively, and

interesting. He's really lacking nothing in the mixing

skills department, and I'm sort've miffed as to where

that criticism arose from in the 1st place. He's

rightfully one of the best up and coming breaks djsaround.

I don't wanna forget to mention that my evening was

made much better by the people I met and hung with

from Philly, Todd from Cue records, Imri who opened

for Hyper and gave a blinding set himself, Anton Chasm

a local jock and one of his friend/promoters Pete, and

1 of the women who helped brign Hyper to Philly and is

playing Fluid on the 23rd with Imri herself if yer

gonna be down there, Summerjoy. A great time was had

by all and certainly myself. Get ready North America,

Hyper's about to rock the continent like he did theCity of Brotherly Love!!!

For a full review of Phil K and Ivan, go here

Some friends caught Phil K over at the WMC last week and said he was absolutely sick. He'll be rocking out with 3 tables, 2 cd mixers, and an effects deck that he's such a wizard at that Pioneer made him their official spokesperson for the unit. SHOULD BE WIIIIILD!
