Re: Mash it up: 2manydjs hit the UK

How right you are. I can't wait for the Bristol show, shame its on a wednesday, the same day as club malice.

I love the Radio Soulwax albums, but I was REALLY disappointed when I saw them at Glastonbury this year.

Re: Mash it up: 2manydjs hit the UK

I personally thought they were great at Glastonbury - some of the new songs worked really well. I can imagine it working even better in a proper club.

shrewd move... be in an ok band that doesn't sell a lot of records. muck about in a studio sticking bits of tunes together. when everyone goes mental about it and says what fun it all is, tag your own set onto the back of the tour and try and flog some of your 'proper' music as well. i don't hate either soulwax or 2manydjs but i was pretty sure that they were completely separate entities? must be a pisser when you need your dj act to tour to sell some of your records, and you have to support your side-project every night

Wasn't this, like, announced months ago?

Mash it up: 2manydjs hit the UK

I went to the Glastonbury set expecting lots too and came away very disappointed, and thinking they it was very average. Maybe i should give them another chance. Maybe I should forget they ever existed

Re: Mash it up: 2manydjs hit the UK

Soulwax and 2manydjs are completely seperate. Soulwax the band are dubious at best. Vitalic is indeed pretty good, i like the album a fair bit.

Re: Mash it up: 2manydjs hit the UK

well theyre not completely separate are they? they mash up their own soulwax songs all the time.

Re: Mash it up: 2manydjs hit the UK

Vitalic is the shit though. I cant believe I was away when he was at Fabric. I never go anywhere, then the one time something good happens Im not here!

Re: Mash it up: 2manydjs hit the UK
