It has been a little while since our last gig and we were keen to come back with something special, so upcoming on Friday January 28th we welcome two legends of the scene to The Button Factory - CJ Bolland and Frank De Wulf - playing strictly old skool sets. As two people who laid the foundation of Europe’s exploding scene in the ‘90s, there are literally no better men to represent this period of time, when they get together to play many key tunes that define these essential years.
CJ Bolland
Besides being one of the producers of a generation – kicked off by a slew of outstanding releases on Ghent’s legendary R&S Records - English-born but Belgian based CJ Bolland was one of the pivotal figures in Europe’s rave and burgeoning techno scene from the early ‘90s. Working under various names like Ravesignal, Sonic Solution, The Project, Space Opera, and of course his own, CJ’s skills in the studio made him both an underground and overground superstar, while as a DJ he became one of the most widely renowned performers around. One of the few high profile names to regularly incorporate different styles into his sets, despite the growing sub-genre purism that seeped into the scene, CJ Bolland has played some of the best dj sets we have witnessed in Dublin over the years. Expect this performance to be no different, as he digs into his crates for a special selection of retro gems. www.cjbolland.com
Frank De Wulf
Frank De Wulf is an originator, a pioneer, a living legend. Making his name originally during the Belgian new beat era of the late ‘80s, De Wulf set the scene alight through classic tracks like ‘Acid Rock’ (as Rhythm Device) and most notably the ‘B-Sides’ series on Music Man - a collection of eps that displayed the unusual splicing of elements from well known records of the time, made into killer dj-friendly tracks. Casual fans will recognise much of De Wulf’s own music and remixes (The Orb, The Shamen, Jam & Spoon, N-Joi, Human Resource, Paul Hartnoll all benefited from De Wulf’s remixing talent) while hardcore fans will tell you of how their lives changed when they first heard Frank’s music or saw him play back in the day. After a long-term hiatus from the dance scene, Frank De Wulf is back, and back to play in Ireland for one night only! www.frankdewulf.com
Appearing on the night also is Pierce Rooney. Better known for his ongoing achievements as a dj/producer on the global hardhouse scene, Pierce leads a double life as one of Dublin’s old skool vinyl overlords. Pick a random label of the past - like for instance Network, R&S or Jumpin’ & Pumpin’ - and there’s a good chance that Pierce owns their whole catalogue; if there’s an ultra rare house track you heard on an old mixtape but never knew the name, there’s a good chance Pierce has double copies. Pierce is one of the true soldiers out there and we are delighted to have him warming up on the night.

Alright Niall, didn't know you were back, how was Aus?? Yeah mental weather, love the sneachta myself though!
Don't know what either of them play these days but would expect them both to be banging out techno, maybe CJ might go back to his mid 90s buzz and lash out a bit of this...

Thanks for the support guys, will be wicked to have you there. Great early feedback for this so far, maybe the best we've had for a gig yet. Re: what they'll be playing - we asked both of them to play old skool sets, and they agreed. Obviously there is a hell of a lot of stuff that comes under the 'old skool' banner, but we're expecting that it'll all be from the early era. Either way, there will be no current day stuff getting played

Simply reply to earwiggle@gmail.com letting us know your favourite track of the lot.Winners will be notified by Thursday afternoon.
For those wanting to stay safe, €12 tickets are still available at: www.eventelephant.com/bollanddewulf
Lastly, we’d like to confirm (as a lot of people have been asking) that Frank will be playing tracks from the 1989-93 period only
Nice one!0 -
Hi there,
So we're finally here. The arrival of the Belgian godfathers Bolland and De Wulf in Dublin, and it's going to be a night to remember.
We had a massive response to our competition - CJ's 'Horsepower' and Frank's 'The Tape' were the most popular choices, but it was close! Thanks for all the entries and well done to all of the winners.
Make sure you get in early - Pierce kicks off at 11, while Frank will hit the stage at midnight. You can probably work out the rest!
On a final note, we have Kun Kontrol doing visuals on the night. Expect to be transported right back in time
Catch you later!0 -
