Total Niceness Christmas Bash 27 December 2005

First off i'd like to say thank you to all the Total Niceness troopers who have followed us from our humble beginnings in the Medusa and wish you all a very happy Christmas and a devastating new year from all of us in the total niceness crew. I wish you all the best for 2006, this year is gonna bigger and better than ever for total niceness, watch out for Mr Luke Envoy its been a long time coming and he is about to release some serious business, one to watch for 2006. Anyways.....................................
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........................

Total Niceness ................................. A Brief History

Total Niceness started out as a back room project for the Intergrate raves that we were doing in the early nauties. We aquired the name from something we heard goldfinger saying on the radio a few years before. Started by Delsa and Luke Envoy, with support and encouragement from Benergy; the aim was to provide somewhere to chill out and wace about smoking spliffs and generally getting high whilst people were dancing like nutters to techno and such in the main room. Musically we wanted to provide a diverse selection of laid back but bassy music that you could dance to or just spin the fuck out. The early parties included sets of tripped out nu skool breaks and electro from myself and the Breaks Proffesor, drum and bass from Luke Envoy and fucked up electronic house from Tarek, as well as Vince and his totally horizontal philosophy. We recruited many miscreants on the way and slowly morphed into a party in our own right when we finally knocked intergrate on the head as we had become to lazy to dance to fast music anymore. Staring out at the mighty Medusa club in the back waters of Brixton, we then moved around such esteemed venues as the Imperial Gardens, The Viaduct, Jamm, and Mass and many dodgy places in between. Finally in 2004 we moved to a permanent home for Total Niceness at Inigo in Battersea and pushed the more dance floor sounds whilst still keeping the total niceness eclectic approach to music policy and selection. We moved on from Inigo after 2 happy and successful years and on to the White Lion in deepest darkest Streatham where we have spent the last year but we are now on the move again in search of a new home much like the inhabitants of the battlestar galactica, except we were not forced to flee by the cylons, rather by the incredible ineptitude of some the White Lions staff and security and by some of the proper inbreds that seem to inhabit streatham high road of a Saturday evening. Some of the reprobates who have played and contributed to Total Niceness over the years include in no particular order although Benergy does deserve special props: Luke Envoy, Idle, The Breaks Prof, Paul Torch, Gillotron, Tarek, Smut Roast, Rob Focuz and the apply the breaks crew, Rob Reng, Mjoogoo, Plazadefunk, Shaman, Henry Blocked Nozzle, Woody, Clive Morley (Wanker), LadyKilla, Scuba, Elemental, Deekline, Gus, Dtism, Ms T, Funkbudha, Collins 303, Unique 3, Andy Simmonds, Moldy, not forgetting the Colenal, Clair Honey, and Mike. I'm sure there are more and they will be added when I remember them. Special mentions also go to the girl that Benergy booked who couldn't actually mix, even more props to Luke Envoy though for telling her to get off the decks.
