    HOLLA!!

    Its true and we are very pleased to announce we have Electro Royalty among us this Friday at the Weird Scientist in McGruders on Thomas Street!
    For two lucky Boards users we are going to give away two free passes!! Just answer the question below and we will pick from the entrants on Friday.

    Adam Freeland is the DJ, label-head, and producer most often hailed for the fusion of breakbeat and techno (sometimes branded nu-skool breaks) on righteous mix albums like 1996's Coastal Breaks and 2000's Tectonics. Based in Brighton, Freeland began DJing in 1991, originally mixing deep house and later drum'n'bass. After becoming an in-demand DJ around Britain and to a lesser degree Europe for his mixing skills and innovative sound, Freeland released his first mix album, Coastal Breaks, in 1996. He began producing around the same time, teaming with Kevin Beber as Tsunami One and hitting it big in underground circles with the single "No. 43 With Steamed Rice Please" on Fuel. The second volume in the Coastal Breaks series followed in 1998, and he formed his own label, Marine Parade (named after a seaside road in Brighton). In 1999, another Tsunami One production -- "Hip Hop Phenomenon," recorded with American trance producer BT -- became a hit. Earning scads of best-new-DJ reviews from magazines as well as no less an authority than Carl Cox, Freeland returned to the mix-album realm in 2000 with Tectonics, licensed to American audiences through Ultra Records. An avid fan of surfing and snowboarding, Freeland has DJed at numerous snowboarding events as well as clubs worldwide. His remixing credits include the Orb, Headrillaz, Orbital, Deejay Punk Roc, and Dylan Rhymes.

    Support on the night is from our head resident Miller and door tax is only €15 opening at 11pm, Friday 26th September.
    Freeland can rarely be caught in intimate surroundings such as McGruders so dont miss this once in a life-time chance to sweat it up with one of the pioneers of Breaks.
    Tickets are only available on the door so please come early to avoid disappointment.

    Competition: The Weird Scientist is named after an 80's movie about 2 guys who create an artificial woman, what was it called?
    Please personal mail me with your answers before Friday at 4pm and we will pick two winners from all the entrants.

    Best of luck!!
