Topic: [GLA] 16/12/11 Spectre (Chicago) and Jackee (Live)

We’ve just about recovered from our launch night and would like to thank DJ Stingray for packing his bag full with certified bangers and tearing the place apart. Big thanks are also due to all who came along to help us kick things off in style. This time round we’re very much on a Chicago tip and extremely excited to welcome two leading lights in house music…

To say Specter (Andres Ordonez) is an artist firmly devoted to his craft is somewhat of an understatement. Having finely honed his mixing skills from the age of 15, the Chicago-based producer has become a fine ambassador for the city that gave house a home. His sound retains the spirit of the genre’s roots, while also often incorporating the deeper, darker elements that permeate much of Detroit’s output. With a string of impressive releases on labels such as Sound Signature, Sistrum Recordings and his own Tetrode Music under his belt, and with the likes of Marcellus Pittman singing his praises as a DJ, Specter is well placed to headline Tributes first foray into house.
Our second guest is London-based acid aficionado, Paul Mitchell, and we are delighted to be hosting his debut live performance under new moniker, Jackee. The native Glaswegian has already made waves as Meschi, with releases on Lunar Disko and Snuff Trax establishing his status as a gifted producer. Jackee’s sound is more dominated by the intoxicating squelch of the Roland 303 and perfectly combines the atmospheric splendour of the Meschi releases with the driving, dancefloor style of vintage acid house. With releases upcoming on Abstract Acid, Snuff Tracks and Our House Recordings, we feel rather privileged to be the first to let you experience Jackee in action.

Warm up duties will be left in the more than capable hands of residents Avant Radge and Sidrad.

£8

As we do, this will be follow by an after party at a secret city centre location. This will be manned by the legendary TRAXX DJ team consisting of Laurence Hughes, Jamie Thomson and Tom Churchill. It’s been a long time since all three of these guys rocked the spot at the same time and it may be a while before it happens again so I can say with confidence that this is not one to be missed!

Traxx oh those were the days. I would hardly discribe them as Legendary however I guess it was a long time ago.

Never heard Specter before should be a good one. Is that the cat out the bag for Jackee then ? yikes

Outstanding performances all round. Jackee killed it; just what the crowd wanted and perfect contrast after Spectre.

Do hate the Darrio makeover - that booth is Ibiza stupid.  The club doesnt have the same underground vibe anymore.

Anyway, good to see the Glasgow lads and well done to the Tribute crew, roll up their for a ridiculous new year line up.

Re: [GLA] 16/12/11 Spectre (Chicago) and Jackee (Live)

Haha just remembered the girl that asked Jackee whose music he was playing. There's always one.  big_smile

big_smile agreed, half arsed...shiny, plastic crap.

Paul was grand, shame the power cut took him out as he was cranking it up...but got back on it no problem & nailed it. Mr Andre Specter is a nice guy, played some good stuff at the afters as well...so did the Traxx boys. All round good craic cool
