Üdio 1st Birthday with Greg Wilson!


Our last party was perhaps the best yet. We had Bill Brewster bringing some great afro-inspired house music to the Gramaphone basement and Sativo shaking the whole place nicely with his lively showcase of pitched-up bumpty hits. Massive thank you to everyone who came down and helped make the night what it was.

On the 16th Jan we are really happy to be celebrating our 1st birthday in the Gramaphone basement. We set up Üdio to push the funk (in all its incarnations... from deep funk to techno, disco to breakbeat) and with this in mind, who better to invite to help us celebrate our first year in London than one of the pioneers of the UK electro/funk scene... G r e g W i l s o n. There's loads of footage of him doing his live thing on youtube, suffice to say we are expecting a lovely night full of ace music and happy faces. Hope you can make it down too! The facebook event profile is here. Its rare to be able to see a dj of Greg's stature for a fiver in London but we are all about keeping the door prices down. We said that right at the beginning and there's been no deviation since.

I'm lucky enough to be following on from Greg on the night and have so much music that needs airing on the new improved Gramaphone soundsystem. You can see a couple bits on my phonica chart here. Just a slight correction... ignore the hercules LP right at the end - it was meant to be a nod to their "classique 2 / ROAR" EP. Most of the music is from later in the year because I didn't really have my thinking cap on but there's plenty of samples to get stuck into. Enjoy.

Happy new year!
