Electric Mausoleum

The newest goth night to hit Eddies in Birmingham has now been moved from the third to the first Friday of the month.

We will be playing a host of different music for the darkly inclined. 

Flux Vortex and Electric Mausoleum

The next events myself and Cai are DJing at are;
Flux Vortex - Facebook Event

And the night I co-run - Facebook Event


The last Electric Mausoleum had an amazing turn out and we are hoping to do something very special for the October one. More on that closer to the time!

Flux Vortex - updates

As a special request (my other half is now a resident DJ for this night mind) I was asked to DJ the May 2013 Flux vortex as they wanted to feature some batcave, synth-pop and goth music. So I obliged.

For those that don't know Flux Vortex is a Rave/trance/hard-style night at Eddies in Birmingham on the 3rd Friday of the month. Its actually not too bad a night. I'm not quite sure Eddies is the right place to hold such a night but there you go really. There are some nice plans for the night so keep an eye out

Flux Vortex Facebook Page

Its worth a look if you like ravey music.

Next event soon so hope to see you there

New Night for Children of the Night

There is a new night at Eddies Rock club in Birmingham. Called Electric Mausoleum.
Aimed more at post-punk, batcave, goth, Darkwave, gothabilly, deathrock and early ebm/industrial.

Nice change from all the electro and bleepy oontz around at the moment

Third Friday of the Month. Starting May17th, Should be great fun.

Trip to Sheffield

Things are going well with Flux Vortex, we should be making a trip to Sheffield soon for a Versus night with one of the local trance/hardstyle nights. Looking forward to this.

On another note, not long now. Anyone who is in the cyber/industrial scene will know of the festival Resistanz. The last few years have been amazing and its a relatively new festival. I see good things coming from them. So we are going there again this year, outfits are almost sorted. So I'm getting quite excited.

I'm loving the line-up. A great mix of synthpop, electronic and noize/aggrotech.
Worth it to see Noisuf-x again ^^


If you haven't heard of the festival then check it out!

This years bands include;
Noisuf-X
Neuroticfish
C-Lekktor
Alter der Ruine
 iVardensphere
Alien Vampires
Cygnosic
Seabound

and other impressive bands.

Second coming

The first night of Flux Vortex was a success. Lots of stompy hardstyle, happy hardcore, trance and gabber. The next night is already sorted. March 1st at Eddies in Birmingham. Let us melt your mind!

Entering the ... Flux Vortex

It's been a while, time to dust the cobwebs off this blog. New night, here in Birmingham. Especially for those that love cyber, trance, raves and all things glowy and dancy.

It's not an 'industrial' night... but instead a place honouring 25 years + of hard dance music. Including but not limited to; Trance, Hardcore, Hardstyle, electronica and techno.

Found the first friday of the month at Eddies in Birmingham. Hosted by TK and co hosted by myself

Odyssey

Another night for your calendars folks. Ebm, trance, hardcore, hard style, electro  and all things bouncy and stompy. To take place on the 10th August and Eddies in Birmingham. Its a one off night with a prospect for more in the future. 5 DJ's all turning out fun tunes ranging from the well known to the obscure.  Why not pop down and see what all the fuss is about. Great for Cybers, gravers and ravers alike. Get your stomp on!

Date change

Previously I sated that I was DJing the goth set at Dystopia in June, this has been changed now to the May dystopia. Which works out fine as I have that hole weekend free anyway (except the Saturday evening) where I will be present at the goth ball. I have missed that place quite a lot.

Twisted will be restarting again soon which is good if I didn't mention it befor I have now.
So see you all in May

Return to work

Of late I have been busy, sorting out new venues etc for twisted, I uni, work, the usual but I have not vanished and did not surcombe to complete idolness whilst Internet went down. Proceeding my break I have undertaken seeking out new haunting grounds on which to DJ, and I have found several. More details of each to follow but initially and for this post I shall announce that I will be DJing the goth/post-punk/batcave/dark wave/80's set for Dystopia in June which should be fun and gives me a chance to teach my better half the ropes as he wants to start DJing.
So yea, I think you should be there

Twisted Starts again

I have recently been told that the night where I am resident DJ is re-opening this year. Details of dates and venues have yet to be released but already I am looking very much forward to it. All updates on it shall be kept up to date and I hope to see some new faces there. So next night its running come along for some wonderful fetish fun and a blend of 80's/90's/batcave/deathrock/darkwave and stompy electro/psytrance/techno/industrial/ebm

bulC norT - 26th August 2011

A different night I suppose... not quite what I expected (except the turnout), very small amount of people out though that was due to infest being on at the same time and thus.... myself and Doka Chapman ended up DJing a replacement night for the knowned cyber/ebm night that occurs at Eddies on the last saturday of the month. It was an okay night. Oddly Doka asked me to play Tradgoth/Batcave/Deathrock as opposed to the nights usual ebm/electro and industrial. A bit odd but I got more people on the dancefloor than his ebm set did so I'm not complaining. I really want to thank everyone who came out and danced, it really made it a good night.

My playlist for that night was (more mainstream due to the crowd) as always * for requests;

Sisters of Mercy - Floorshow
Paralysed Age - Nocturne
Clan of Xymox - Liberty
Rosetta Stone - Ruination
Alien sex fiend - Now I'm Feeling Zombified
Nosferatu - Keepers Call
Bauhaus - She's in Parties
Suspiria - Allegedly Dancefloor Tragedy
Sixousie and the Banshees - peek-a-boo
The Mission UK - Deliverance

****************************
Part 2
Wolfsheim - Once in a lifetime *
The Fear Cult - Safety Dance
Type O Negative - She Burned Me Down
B-52's - Rock Lobster
Abney Park - Airship Pirates
Sopor Aeternus - Leeches & Deception
Killing Joke - Love Like blood
The Cure - Lovecats
Sister's of Mercy - Dominion(Mother Russia)
Angels and Agony - Forward

Club Tron will resume as usual next month (september) with guest DJ Geoff Lee (Modulate).. enjoy

Club Nort

Due to infest clashing over the same weekend as what is normally club Tron, and the DJ/ promoter is actually at infest Doka and myself are running a replacement night as DJ's. I am not sure how it is going to pan out as Doka has ideas as to what he wants to do with the night... I think that it was supposed to be an ebm night but then again I am not sure once again how Doka will take it. I will be playing electro, trance and ebm anyway. The Night to my knowledge will be called club Nort and will be ran on the 26th August. Should be fun anyway.. taking place at Eddies rock club in Birmingham

Return to old haunts

I have been out in more local areas recently, though up till this year I was reknowned for travelling silly miles for gigs and nights out, from Coventry to yorkshire in some cases, London others.

For the case of this blog I am very happy to announce that I shall be persistantly returning to all my old haunts and continuing to do so again, tooo many friends that I miss :(

Club Antichrist, I haven't been here for a while now, sadly it has clashed with exams and work, other DJing etc but as I am moving to London it will be great to go there again and put on my bridle and tail.. oh yes did I mention I'm a ponygirl. Also I have a lot of Burlesque performances in London that could lead to me working at AC with any luck... I really hope so, I missed D and Missy's (the lovely people who run AC) Birthday and feel bad for that :( sorry guys, see you at the next AC if not before.

Rubberlove - as with AC, miss you all :( I have some new latex-y goodness in the form of outfits I have made especially to see you all again ;) love you my sexy friends!
