Total Niceness Christmas Bash 27 December 2005
Total Niceness returns for the craziest party of the year. That’s right its the Christmas season and We will be down at the Inigo in Clapham/Battersea for our annual Christmas shindig featuring the cream of the total niceness crew, alas no benergy but he can schuuuuuuuut his mouth as he is in Belize and I’m sure he will be raising a toast with some sort of fancy cocktail lying on a beach. I am sure he will be more than enjoying himself. If there’s one thing that Mr Benergy enjoys its getting a suntan so I’m sure he’s got everything he wants for Christmas.
Anyway, what you really need to know is what the crack is for Tuesday, so let’s get down to business...........................
Kicking off proceedings is the one and only scratch master Mr idle who will be exciting and amazing us with his cutting, scratching and general deck trickery. This week he will be serving up some old skool hip hop beats to get the party underway, expect anything and everything from 80s Hip Hop and Electro to some other exotic gems which he will be pitching into the mix. Fresh from a Christmas trip back to his suburban drum and bass homeland amongst the m25 posse Mr Idle will be causing random out breaks of bumping and grinding amongst other things.
Next up is your truly Delsa alongside Luke Envoy, who will be joining me for the latter part of the set following my daring and somewhat long mission to extract him from the dark depths of Cornwall back for the Christmas Turkle. From me and Mr Envoy you can expect a large and loud selection of dubstep beats with grime trimmings and a breakstep side salad. We will be playing a deep and varied selection. Me and Luke are gonna be packing some lethal weapons so watch out for those, some super sneak peeks of new Scuba, Caspa, Luke Envoy and more are gonna be dropped so keep your ears peeled. We shall be making sure you have a very merry Christmas and warming people up for the New Year’s festivities.
Last but not least by a long shot it’s our number one electro house smut providers Smut Roast who will be amazing and exciting with their regular blend of suggestive beats. At the moment its not clear whether we shall be blessed with both Fran and Nadia but one thing is for sure whether its one or two of them Smut Roast are guaranteed to whet your appetites both audibly and visually. They'll be taking us up to the close and be providing some late night music for skunking, grinding, gyrating and whatever else you want to do. Following o from last years Christmas bash, it would be safe to say that there may well be crazy drunk girls dancing on the tables and I’ll say amen to that........................
The full line up is as follows:
Idle 9 - 10:30
Delsa Vs Luke Envoy - 10:30 - 12:30
Smut Roast 12:30 - 02:00

DELSA BIRTHDAY SPACTACULAR !
Yep that's right one of Intergrate's founding fathers - George Rosco is turrning 23 and tonight we dedicate an evening of Total Niceness to him.
Delsa has already achieved legendary status as a master piss artist on big occasions and hopefully we can aid him on his way to a memorable 2 day midweek hangover !
As you can see from the picture he doesn’t mind a drink or 2 whilst at the controls - Please don’t be alarmed by his relaxed pose, I can assure you that after 8 pints his musical skills reach new heights.
I think I have even heard that in the past a few 'sherbets' have given him the encouragement to try his hand at MC'ing over Happy Hardcore - don't worry though no mic will reach his grasp tonight and for the record I will not and have never indulged in the public airing of Happy Hardcore - case closed. 91-93 Hardcore - well that's a different story, one that must be told over again to educate the crowds of today in raw ruff beats.
Anyway enough preaching - Spirits and mixers are 2 for 1 before 10pm and with a champagne raffle later in the night I am sure that Mr Delsa will be well on the way to birthday oblivion come 2am.
Oh and watch out for a fix in that raffle - me and the whole crowd on the Bristol leg of the Kid Koala tour a couple of years back witnessed George brazenly cheat at bingo - low behaviour Delsa - tut tut tut !
Happy Birthday mate
Total Niceness - Birthday special - 8th November
Tonight we have from the soundcistren extrodinaire Armatage Skanks the one and only boywonder who appears once again to shake you into submission with his versatilke selection of breaks ranging from funked up booty shakers to bass bin rattlers. Also tonight we have the original old boys, the Das meisters who never fail to represent, As ever we are without the professor because he got school and hes a good lad so he wont be coming, hes a teacher so i suppose he got to set a good example. Paul Torch and Gillotron though will be amazing and exciting us with a touch of electro, a slice of booty bass and a healthy injection of the nu skool business, there will probable be a touch of acid house too if they are up to there usual tricks. Also tonight we have Myself and Idle who will be providing the mid eveniung entertainment which i can garuntee will be exciting, delighting adn possible quite frightening if reg starts playing that bloody old skool again. In all seriousness though it should be banger with me and idle providing some bass tinged beats with a healthly injection of dubwise vibes from me and possible a few exclusives, Idle will be scratching it up as ever and taking the vibe a bit more out there probable to the realms of electro and far beyond. Benergy, the worlds best resident and my tireless promotional partner will be starting things off as ever with his blend of breaks, electro and prog house, all done with a smile and whilst drinking some sort of dodgy looking shooter. I digress..............................................
Full line up:
Benergy 8-9
Das Meisters (Paul Torch & Gillotron) 9-11
Delsa Vs Idle 11-1230
Boywonder 1230-2

Total Niceness with secret drum and bass content 25th October
Tonight Total Niceness is delighted to welcome back our favourite tag team partnership of Fran and Nadia AKA Smut Roast. It’s been far too long since these two have graced the decks down at Total Niceness and it'll be a warmer night down the old inigo having these two smiling beauties down there. They will be getting everyone in the mood with there trademark brand of slightly rude and mildly arousing blend of electro house with the slice of something different. Rob "the rudebwoy" Reng, west records finest returns as well to continue the warming vibes with his usual selection of funky electro tinged breaks guaranteed to get you up and at em with the best of them. (We were also meant to have
For tonight only we've got a classic from back in the day good old mark monks who we used to mix up with back in the day when I spent my time harassing mics rather then spinning the plastic. Anyway I digress, mark is gonna come and spin some classic drum and bass flavours for this special appearance, I sadly wont be there as I'm in Bristol working hard at my new job and making some beats and generally trying not to be a waste man. Any way total niceness hoes and hoettes this is gonna be another bouncing adventure so get down there I've heard there are some super cheap special drink promos and the like going down too so no excuses to miss it.
FYI: The next one is my birthday bash and is gonna be crazy feat Das meisters, Boy wonder and Myself (Delsa)...........................

Total Niceness - Birthday special - 11th October - I am Serious
For this musical celebration of the little scumbag i've let him have some hand in what music is being played and although i refused to let him play his classic spice girls and mr blobby set i did give him some options on what djs would be playing for his and your audio delectation. Asever the evening is starting off with the one and only Benergy, who reujmour has it has got hold of some new records and will be entertaining and amusing us with a selection of breaks and prog-house between the hours of 8 and 1030 although we usually turn up a bit late so it will most likely be 830 onwards. Second to grace the decks will be the one and only Blunote who is a welcome return to the total niceness stable after a couple years spent wandering in the wilderness of bristol. Blunote is garunteed to inject both some fun and some funk into your evening with a selection of phat hip hop beats mixed with scrathing and juggling and all sorts of deck trickery which i would have problems explaing let alone performing (thats why i have my helpful sidekick idle for that technical bizzle. Standard). Next up we have the one and only Luke Envoy who is playing another of his now infamous hip hop sets although this time its gonna be for all the right reasons, he swears he'll only plasy tunes with guns shot noises in them if they are grime tunes, which is fine by me. Anyway hes gonna crunk the party up with some large hip hop cuts which me bro has even had a hand in suggesting a few (this maybe a very bad idea going on my brothers tastes but i reckon i can trust envoy on this one). Last but by no means least its (delsa) me and the old boy dj Idle, we're gonna amaze and amuse, toment and confuse anyone who is still there and ive even bought myself some new breaks tunes for the occassion evgen though i'm stil langushing in poverty out here in the sticks in brizzle. In all seriousness though me and Idle will be injecting a large quotant of electro tinged breakbeats and and sub bass harmonisation. Watch this space this ones gonna be big, ish.

England reclaim the ashes.................................
I told them australians (any i could find) that we would win, but they were too sensible to listen to my crazed ramblings and even on friday the guy from work wouldnt believe me that when i told him we would still have them up and be celebrating tuesday. Well the day after and i'm still reeling from the celebrations last night. They would have lasted longer had i not been drinking since midday and didnt feel like death come midnight, or probable even earlier. Any way hardluck to the australians ( is there any nation that its more fun to beat, possible france or germany?) they played very well especially Warne, that fat skillful bastard, the only shit thing to cxome of this is that the cricket is never gonna be on regular telly any more only sky sports which is a fucking ripoff. No longer will i be able to while away 5 days at a time just drinkin beer and getting high and such with a semi-valid excuse. Anyway heres a picture to commemorate our historic voistory and soon i'll stick up a picture of both the breaks professor and ricky ponting as they look the spit of each other and it would amuse me and the breaker atleast if no-one else.

Everythings been a bit slack recently around here.
Well, i just got back from canada last week and ive been a bit slow in sorting everything out around here. Idles been having some internet troubles at work aswell so hes not been on the case properly either. We are reevaluating how we are going to manage the flyering and promotion for the total niceness events with a generic flyer that we'll put out with the rotating residents and then post the specific line ups on this blog and on the other regular channels. It also looks like ui have finally securred myself a perminanant show on nuskoolbreaks.co.uk/radio, although it is in the daytime it will open new routes t foriegn listeners and offer a foot in a door for getting a later show at some point. Preliminarily it will be from 1-3 GMT every tuesday which will mean there should be one before every total niceness , which will be good and i might have some wierd guests on although it will probable depend on who is free during the day and we be able to come and get drunk of an afternoon. There will definately be an appearance from dj Gul (newport and south wales's finest) but apart from that who can say. The radio show will mainly be breaks'house/electro although i think i'm gonna do a little 30 minute grime/dubstep education spot every week just to keep people up to date with some different music that they might not know about. My two weeks in canada went even better than expected with some crazy sites to be seen and a set in one of the better/best clubs in Ottawa which went really well, it really makes a change playing in a club where all the most beautiful girls are just loving the music instead of coming up and asking if you've got any R&B or Garage. I played mostly progressive and tribal house with a spot of breaks to finish and although i didnt educate them about dubstep at the club, i saved it until the after party at chris's house where i was staying and everyone seemd to enjoy it. French canada was definately a highlight of the trip and damn, the girls there are ridiculous. we went to a strip club and this girl was humping the ceiling at the top of this pole, thats a sight i wont forget soon, i tell thee for true. All in all it was a properly decent holiday and me and luke envoy only had two proper bust up which is less than i expected going on holiday with him. Heres a little photo on me sleeping at envoys dads pictursce garden in the middle of knowwhere, i'm looking a bit like a ghosts but then who gives a fuck about that, eh (the eh is in honour of the canadians). I'd like to say a big thanks to steph and mel for putting up with me and envoy and a special thanks to chris for driving us all over the place, letting us stay and generally making sure we had a great time whilst we were in canada, orh and also paying for those table dances at the strip club. i'll be coming back next year if you'll 'ave me and if i can afford it. Props to the paulo and paulo and the Onervesal crew aswell for having play and offering me subsequent gigs next year. Recognise Fools.

PS. Idle has just done a brand new cd that he'll probable be giving away after printing off hundreds at work today, i'm sure he'll stick something up here about it anyway when he gets round to it and then you'll be able to download it or order a cd off him.

FRUITSTOCK - regents park london 6-7 August
On saturday and sunday i'm working at some crazy free festival in regents park called fruit stock, i'm not sure what im meant to be doing there but hopefully you wont see me going round dressed as a giant lemon or anything stupid like that. Hopefully they'll be some good weather although thatsa never a given on these beautiful isles. Theres a quite eclectic world music line up including giles peterson (who im looking forward to) and loads of other madness and people who I plainly havent heard of but will be good non the less i'm sure. Go to www.fruitstock.com for all your info
needs relating to that. Heres a little picture of the one last year it looks massive.
After the festivites on sunday are finished i'm gonna flee east to the realms of old street for some dubbed out dubstep action with large portions of sub-bass to discombobulate my body to the next dimension. Its got all the regular dubsteppers playing and its lookings to be heavy weight, if only in the bass department. Theres Mala, Coki, Loefah, kode 9 and benny ill . and its at the old blue last, 39 great eastern street ec2, just off old street . it runs from 7-midnight and i reckon its gonna be the perfect way to finish off the weekend. I'll post up the flyer in a minute.
