**SUCKERPUNCH ZOMBIE DISCO FANCY DRESS SPECIAL**

EVIL NINE (DEX ‘N FX 2 HOUR SET)

Bloomin’ hell! I think I have only just recovered from the 1st Birthday party. It feels like only a few hours ago we were partying like werewolves from the set of Jacko’s thriller to the sounds of A.Skillz and Trevor Loveys – the club, the guest DJs, the residents and you lot made it ka-frickin-fantastic.

Now its the turn of one of the best DJ / Production outfits in the world to come join us at ‘lil old’ DQ for a Zombie Disco of frightenly good proportions. It’s time to dig out our (not so glad) rags from the coffin, give them a brush and rise from our dreary sleep 6ft under. Ahhhhh yeeeeah it’s EVIL NINE!!

Evil Nine have experienced huge success the world over, releasing two critically acclaimed albums ‘You Can Be Special Too’ & ‘They Live!’, which include collaborations with the likes of Aesop Rock, EL-P, Autokratz, Juice Aleem, Toastie Taylor & Emily Breeze.

Tom & Pat Evil were quickly signed by breaks pioneer Adam Freeland to his Marine Parade label. Since then each of their releases have distinguished Evil Nine as innovators who refuse to blend into the scene. Forthcoming remixes of NASA, The Temper Trap, Juice Aleem & Ian Brown are imminent whilst the duo are currently working on new material for release on Marine Parade.

We’re sooooo excited to have the lads back & join us at Suckerpunch for a stunning decks ‘n’ FX set – every time they perform they seemlessly blend the darkest sounds of electro, breaks and techno to devasting effect (scary). Now equipped with Funktion One sound, DQ has never been more prepared to face such a menace on the turntables. We’re going to wake the dead.

We’re also drafting in our boy Krook Kid to join the Suckerpunch residents to keep the disco of doom alive to the early hours of the morning. With that and you ‘orrible lot in fancy dress – this event looks set to go down as the most terrifying chapter in our year long history. It’s gonna be EVIL.

DQ is getting dark. Very dark.

Miss this at your peril.

Fri 19th March @ DQ, Fitzwilliam St., Sheffield. 10pm ’til 4am.
Early Bird Tickets £5. More on the door.

TAYO (Fabric // Cool & Deadly // Soul Jazz)

Mr. SHANKS

TIMMY DUTCH

JANUARY SALE! ONLY £4 OTD!

There really can’t be a better way to kick off SUCKERPUNCH in 2010 then with FABRIC resident DJ, TAYO: a champion of BASS music for over ten years.

His night ‘Cool & Deadly’ started life in 2007 as a club night at Fabric and has since gone on to host it’s own tent at the Glade festival.

The opening remit for the project was to explore music where “The backbone is dub and the body is bass”.

Guest DJ’s alongside Tayo have included the likes of Digital Mystikz, Skream, Oris Jay, Drop The Lime, Iration Steppas, Freq Nasty, Buraka Som Systema, and Trojan Sound System.

He’s also had radio shows on both BBC Radio 1 & 1Xtra.

His “Fabric Live 32” mix was the winner of ‘Best Compilation’ at DJ Mag’s Best Of British Awards.

One of the original pioneers of breakbeat Tayo started Mob Records in 2000, one of the first breakbeat labels and early home for the Stanton Warriors, and released classic records by artists like Rennie Pilgrem, and Beber & Tamra, as well as the first Plump DJs mix album.

His sets now take in everything from dub reggae, breaks, garage, dubstep, jungle and beyond – if the bass is big enough to rattle your ribcage, this guy’s sure to be rocking it.

Support on the night comes from steel city bass soldier Jack Opus, and the Suckerpunch DJ team.

ANDY H / MR SHANKS / TIMMY DUTCH

JUST £5 OTD per usual!

With only a week before Santa packs your Xmas stockings we’ve got a extra special line-up to help burn the inevitable Christmas pud pounds! Get set for the return of the SUCKERRRPUNCH! Making a long overdue welcome to the Steel City, needing little introduction and joining us for a pre-festive workout is U&A records head-ho-ho-honcho the ‘Shakforce’ ELITE FORCE. With a record-box rammed with peak-timers so filthy they have guaranteed his place on Santa’s naughty list for years to come. He’s collaborated on breaks, house and tech-funk productions with the likes of DEADMAU5, D.RAMIREZ, PLUMP DJs and STANTON WARRIORS and he’s even developed his own dubstepbreaks sound with refixes of BENGA, AC SLATER, CASPA & more. On the decks he has to be seen to be believed – Smashing floors from anywhere from Russia, India, Japan, Belarus, USA to Timbukto. A regular feature on the bills of GLASTONBURY, GLADE and BURNING MAN festivals his music gets continued support from some of the best DJs on the planet, JAMES ZABIELA, SASHA, FATBOY SLIM, CRYSTAL METHOD and LAURENT GARNIER to name but five. This is an act not to be missed. Joining him on the bill are Santa’s little helpers ADAM CONNAL and JONNY TOWNSEND in a SUCKERPUNCH bout of techno, house and breaks. As former Urban Gorilla Residents and working with the LOT49 nights this should prove to be a festive clash that even your Nan (before the glass of sherry) would get down and rock the “rocking robin” to. And continuing in a similiar festive vein are the SUCKERPUNCH residents. With scratch-artist ANDY H combining his DMC skills with the four-to-the-floor breaks of MR SHANKS and the bouncy dnb of TIMMY DUTCH. They look set to knock the stuffing outta any unhappy scrooges – Bah Humbug nowt!
