Discotheque steps it up another level every Friday this August with an incredible lineup of local and international guests. Hosting guests from France and UK we continue to strive in bringing you a diverse line up that promises a great Friday party night that is focused solely on Dance music in all its forms. Next Friday 14th we are very proud to present 2 of the UK’s brightest underground beacons, rolled into one night of an eclectic musical tapestry.

HINT
Hint became a household name for any downtempo / Trip Hop fan when his remarkable debut album ‘Portakabin Fever’, was released by Legendary Label NINJA TUNE in May 2003. Its style being dubbed ‘rural beat’, is a testament to the subtlety and depth within Hint’s musical ability and his deep understanding of rhythms both regular and broken.

He has had a multitude of acclaimed releases since then mostly through ‘TRU THOUGHTS’, a label that is renowned for its high standard of exceptional quality music releases.

An Excellent Jazzy DJ with down tempo beats and grooves contrasted against future-dance floor bombs. This is idyllic electronica. Expect Hint’s ever evolving style to keep you guessing and wanting more.

“Really fat and super funky. Full club support from me” – Laurent Garnier

“Filled to the brim with genius, forward thinking awkward dance music” - Mr Scruff

“this man’s DJ sets are joy, and the dance-floor-orientated tracks on ‘Driven From Distraction’ demonstrate an practiced understanding of what makes a floor bounce…. Hint’s knack of combining the uncombinable shines.” - iDJ Magazine

BOOM MONK BEN
Supporting Hint on his SA tour is Glasgow based Mixtape Magician - Boom Monk Ben. Benny The Boom’s list of top notch mixes is ongoing..he has laid down some of the most seminal mixes ever heard on Solid Steel (Ninja Tune). In no small feat, Ben beat off competition from Mr Scruff, Kid Koala, Cut Chemist, DJ Format, MANDY, James Holden and many, many more to finish runner up in the Best Of 2006′ Solid Steel guest mix competition.

A frenzied fanatic of all things bass, the Boom Monk leaves no stone unturned and no sound unheard in his quest for dance-floor devastation. From hip hop, dancehall, funk and break beats to house, electro, dubstep and drum and bass, as long as it makes him, us and you move on the floor then it will get put the through the blender in his inimitable style.

The Booming Monk has graced our Cape Town dance floors twice in the past with knock out shows at FICTION…earning him a loyal local following.

Not all fun & games ;)…Ben runs a niche DJ & Artist booking agency – MixedBizness.co.uk

‘One of Glasgow’s finest DJs, he’s so cheeky we nabbed him for our own purposes on Solid Steel - surely never a better recommendation? The man knows bass and he will give it to you with both tables (or three sometimes!)’ - DJ Food
