This Saturday, All Caps Records are taking over the basement at La Cheetah Club in Glasgow to showcase the fine selection of producer and DJ talent the label has to offer.

Headlining the night is hotly tipped Atlanta based beatmaker Helix. The 20 year old producer has been making a lot of noise in the bass music scene over the last couple of months, including his release Drum Track, a white label for Night Slugs featuring the vocal talents of grime heavyweight Flirta D on the flip. His follow up release, the Stacks Riddim EP is due to drop at some point this month on the All Caps label. 
Playing alongside Helix is Alex Coulton, the man responsible for All Caps‘ debut release, the Representations EP. The Manchester based producer has seen his fan base grow considerably this year, with an appearance on the Boiler Room, DJ support from the likes of Mosca, Ben UFO, Jacques Greene and Blawan and releases on Idle Hands, Horizontal Ground and Syndrome Z  under his belt already.

Warm up duties on the night are handed to the All Caps Crew.

The All Caps Records Showcase takes place on Saturday 12 May at La Cheetah Club in Glasgow. Tickets are £5 before midnight and £8 after.

Following on from last week’s launch parties at Fabric in London and La Cheetah in Glasgow, Auntie Flo has been invited along to tonight’s Boiler Room with Debruit, Dauwd and Kuhrye-oo.

It all kicks off at 7pm tonight on the Boiler Room Site.

Auntie Flo’s debut album Future Rhythm Machine is out on 14 May on Huntleys & Palmers. Check out the promo video below.

This week on Compost Black Label Sessions, Thomas Herb and Show B hand the reigns to Shahrokh Dini.

No tracklist for this one…

This Friday sees the launch party of the Palace festival in Glasgow, we posted about it yesterday. The festival is being run as a series of collaborations with local promoters, producers and DJ s, and their kicking everything off with Deadly Rhythm, who are celebrating their first birthday in Glasgow.

Deadly Rhythm hosted the first half of their birthday celebrations at Chambre 69 with Braiden and Jon Rust last weekend and are continuing the party this weekend at Stereo with three headlining acts.

Hailing from New York, Falty DL‘s music is difficult to label, with multiple releases on Planet Mu, Ramp Recordings, Ninja Tune  and most recently Swamp 81, who put out his single Mean Streets Part Two. His DJ sets are  often unpredictable so be sure to expect a genre splicing hour of music.

Endian was one half of now defunct D n B act Commix. His first release Birdhouse on Nonplus signifies a departure from his D n B roots into a much deeper techno sound.

Jon Phonics started his career writing beats for everyone from Foreign Beggars to P Money. He released his first solo record last year and since then has been playing his mix of hip hop, funk and boogie all over the place.

Support on the night come from the Deadly Rhythm resident DJs.

Deadly Rhythm & Palace – Falty DL, Endian & Jon Phonics takes place on Friday 4 May at Stereo in Glasgow. Tickets are £5 before midnight and £7 after.
