Battle of the Promoters Returns for Round 2!!!
After thew success of the first installment, Battle of the Promoters returns for part 2, bringing you a new selection of crews to battle it out.

This time we welcome...


Vaccine [Nottingham]
Vaccine make heavyweight, dance floor Drum & Bass with melodic leads and low rolling bass lines. Their shockingly versatile live sets venture into areas mostly untouched by other similarly named ‘live’ outfits. Organic drums, bass and vocals are perfectly blended with loops, samples and synths to create a sound that has devastating impact and competes with even the hardest DJ Sets.


Hijack Crew [Peterborough]
Hijack are peterborough's finest drum n bass collective bringing the best nights of breakbeats and bass in the area! Founded in late 2006 by members of local promotions outfit speed of sound. Hijack has been growing more and more with every event at its home the park nightclub in peterborough and has already been host to some of drum n bass's finest artists with many more touching down at forthcoming events.


Example[GT Yarmouth]
In 2004 dj's Zeal + Litta entered into "Battle Of The DJ's" @ Bar Mission in which they were voted best DnB DJ's and ame 2nd place overall. After much dispute over their placement, they were asked back to Mission to promote their own night, this went under the name EXAMPLE.

Example soon started to build a good reputation for itself and The Zeal & Litta started getting booking all over the place. They have now performed over most of the country @ events such as Konnections (Leicester), Magnum Soundz (Bournemouth), PingPong (Cambridge), Distortion (Beccles) and not forgetting the S:B:I (Lowestoft).


Killah Sounds Kollective [East Anglia]
Summer of 06 Barron teamed up with Herbalist who was also a growing Mc in the area, when the opportunity for them to go b2b is there, they take no prisoners on the dance floor showing their flare, bouncing back and forth with a lyrical display of hard worked material. The pair were spotted by another promoter within the area called Sub:Bass:Invaders owned by Mr Anderson & his brother X.n.trix, once again gaining another residency under Barrons belt.

Due to gigs coming in thick and fast, Barron and Herbalist decided to bring a new click to the table in January 2007 under the name of Killah Soundz Kollective along with DJ Malicious, Bumbleboy Mc and the (new recruit) Azza B. The K.S.K has helped all members to establish themselves more within the local area and has proved to be a success.


Cutting Edge Soundz [Norwich]
Based in the East of England Vengeance aka D.J. B-Rone began Mixing in 1998. After playing a few gigs at pubs & clubs, getting a much needed break on a Pirate Radio station in Norwich with MC Force. Junglists in & around the Norwich region would tune in every week to hear the latest Cutting Edge Drum & Bass. The Duos Reputation Getting bookings as far as Newmarket's Club-M.

In 2004 B-Rone came 1st in the Young Musician of the East Award claiming the title of Finest D.J. in the East 2004 which was judged by the man himself Goldie. Winning this put B-Rone in the spot light and Bookings began to roll in, playing big Norwich Nights such as Rumble & Bounce at Venues such as The Waterfront and Norwich's Sports village. Winning the award also took Byron to London where he played at Camden palace.

After this success B-Rone began to concentrate on making Drum and Bass and now goes by the name Vengeance.


As well as the above, dj's representing RUMBLE, Strictly DOPE, and Locked on Locked In are featuring, and if you dont know about these guys, lets just say they have made up over 60% of the urban nights in Norwich / GT Yarmouth in the past 7 years.
