Sneaky Pete's

Modifier is Sean Kerwin and Chris Shelswell; two musicians living on opposite sides of the earth; Sean in Glasgow and Chris in New Zealand. For this special live club show, Sean, our almost local lad will be joined by drummer and friend Ross, who will help bring this pounding live beast to life at one This Is Music night not to be missed! Modifier are already gaining fans in the likes of Slam, Laurent Garnier, Sasha and Nick Warren to name but a few.

Here are what they’ve been saying:

Sasha – “…nice! Twisted but Uplifting…”
Laurent Garnier – “Will play!”
Slam – “All cool trax, will spin for sure!”
Nick Warren – ” Ace”

The pair also also just licensed 2 tracks to Dave Seaman for his Renaissance compilation which is massive!

Modifier’s forthcoming release *Shady Lane* is a rasping electronic groove that breaks into a euphoric yet melancholic melody and then slams you back to deepness. Twisted and glitchy yet dance floor friendly.

Seekae have spent an incredibly busy few years supporting the praised release, touring heavily with the likes of PVT, Mount Kimbie, Broadcast, Cloud Control, Decoder Ring and the Midnight Juggernauts, as well as selling out their own headline shows.

Ugly Duckling are a hip hop trio, formed in 1993 in Long Beach, California. Ugly Duckling’s members are Dizzy Dustin, Young Einstein and Andy Cooper. Their style is alternative hip hop, influenced especially by old school performers such as the Zulu Nation and the Native Tongues Posse. Most of their songs follow the creed that hip hop is about having fun and often mock the clichéd gangster rappers who dominate the mainstream. An example of this can be heard in the song “A Little Samba” and “Smack” in which they rap about the enormous wealth mainstream rappers brag about, and the ridiculous nature of their possessions, such as gold name plates on their cars, pet sharks and jetting off to Bermuda on private planes.

Being heavily influenced by old school hip hop, they conform to the original basics of rap music; turntablism and MCing. Their DJ, Young Einstein, forms the backbone of the group; he is renowned for performing very complex scratches both on the record and live, unlike in most modern rap where the DJ has been pushed to the back in order to emphasize the MC. He is also the owner of a famous ‘Dookie Gold Chain’ which is the subject of the groups song ‘Eye On The Gold Chain’ and is donned by Einstein during most live performances of the track. They are renowned for their live shows in which they perform various antics on stage and interact with the crowd getting them very hyped and affording them the reputation as brilliant live performers.
