▀ ▐ Release Notes: ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ Nite:life compilation series rolls into 2004 with a ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ mighty fat DJ mix from Mr. Superchumbo himself, Tom ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ Stephan. Titled "These Beats Are...", Tom has mixed up ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ 74 minutes of dirty and chunky beats that proves why he ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ is such a highly sought after DJ (and special guest at ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ Danny Tenaglia's WMC party next month!). ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ "These Beats Are..." contains productions and remixes ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ by the likes of Joey Negro, Chus & Ceballos, Eddie ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ Amador, Carl Craig and Peace Division, and results in a ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ mix that makes just as much sense in your living room ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ as it does on the dancefloor - a hedonistic romp ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ through twisted dark beats and jackin tribal cuts. ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ The native New Yorker, Tom Stephan, cut his teeth in ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ London clubs, DJing with the essence and vibe created ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ by the likes of Junior Vasquez back in NYC. Tom has ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ since gone on to hone his own unique sound, producing ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ under the Superchumbo moniker as well as remixing the ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ likes of Yoko Ono, X-Press 2, Basement Jaxx and Missy ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ Elliot. ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ Tom Stephan's "These Beats Are..." gets released on CD ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ and unmixed 2 X 12" vinyl LP. ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ Mix compilations from Tom Stephan are rarer than hen's ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ teeth. Whilst there are a few live bootlegs in ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ existence there is precious little opportunity to take ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ home a slice of one of his blistering DJ sets. The New ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ York born, now London-residing DJ and producer, has ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ only released 1 commercial DJ mix in his career, the ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ highly acclaimed Soundworx Session Two. So it's a ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ godsend that NRK's nite:life 018 lands in Mr. Stephan's ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ capable hands. ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ Tom's production alias, Superchumbo, has taken most of ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ his attention, creating the classic 'The Revolution', ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ and a run of highly-successful artist singles including ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ 'Irresistible' and 'This Beat Is', as well as remixing ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ Kylie, Missy Elliot, Pet Shop Boys, Basement Jaxx and ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ many more to international success. His DJ sets have ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ caught the imagination of a global clubscene and the ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ result is a hectic tour schedule that can cover Space ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ in Miami and New York's Crobar in one weekend, then ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ Agaya in Tokyo and Zouk in Singapore the next. A truly ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ international fanbase turn up in their thousands to ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ hear his awe-inspiring sets of dark, electronic rhythms ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ spiked with anything from house, techno, and tribal, to ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ the hip hop bootlegs he's renowned for using. ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ This live mix then, is a rare chance to hear the kind ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ of set that has inspired long queues each time his ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ Superchumbo party has taken over The End. Mixes like ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ these are a glimpse into the hedonistic world of the ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ dancefloor that, like it or not, will always offer far ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ more riotous abandon than watching a gang of ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ prima-donnas replay the tired rock formula on stage at ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ a gig.s ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ A club experience is all encompassing. The perfect mix ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ of technology, chemicals, and music ╓ held together by ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ a DJ with a box of tricks that these days extends far ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ beyond just two decks and a mixer. 'These Beats Are...' ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ was mixed live using an array of gadgets including ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ Cycloops, a pair of 1210's, CDJ1000 CDJ mixers and ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ more: exactly what you'd hear him utilise in booths ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ across the world. ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ For the music, Tom has looked across the electronic ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ spectrum. Highlights include the beat-driven house of ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ Chus and Ceballos vs Tedd Paterson's 'In Stereo', the ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ quality, shiny funk of Harry Choo Choo Romero's ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ 'Corruption', the dark acid synths of DK's 'Murder In ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ The Bass' (a pitched down version of the hard dance ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ anthem), and Carl Cox's eastern-tinged techno-funker ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ 'Moraccan Chant'. 'These Beats Are...' is the sound of ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ a DJ at the top of his game, it may be three years ▌ ▀
▀ ▐ since the last one but this is well worth the wait. ▌ ▀
