Jim Rivers NuBreed Interview

April 20th, 2009 from Mike
jim-rivers-nubreedWe stop in with Jim Rivers, rising British DJ and newly minted to the Global Underground family for the next NuBreed compilation. A big deal considering it has been 7 years since the last release, and the series is known for launching careers for Sander Kleinenberg, Danny Howells, Steve Lawler, Lee Burridge, Anthony Pappa and Satoshi Tomiie. Jim, Tell us about NuBreed 007,  what was your goal? "It's the same format as the original NuBreed, it’s a double disc compilation -- so I wanted to try and cover as much as possible what I’m all about -- this is the first compilation I’ve ever done, so some people will know my music a lot of people won’t, so that’s quite a challenge.  I guess the first disc covers some of the deeper, even jazzier edgier stuff.  I play stuff with a bit of a vocal, with ..

Steve Angello vs. Paris Hilton | Pacha NYC presents – Friday, April 17

April 15th, 2009 from Plexi PR
THE story of WMC wasn’t a single big track, or an epic DJ set, or your friends getting so wasted that they got lost downtown and had to walk home across the bridge. Nope, the thing that everyone was talking about was the smackdown between the newly minted hero of dance music, Steve Angello, and the mistress of vapid evil, Paris Hilton. We’ll keep it short. LIV nightclub at the Fontainebleau. Angello tearing it up. Hilton arrives with her nameless reality show boyfriend. Asks Angello to play hip-hop. Angello says in half-Swedish/half-tequila: “Hell no.” Full-on brawl breaks out between Nameless Reality Douche, Angello’s manager, and finally, Angello! So Pacha is double-proud and super-psyched to welcome Steve Angello:
