The Clubguide with Stuart Ojelay - May 24th
Forgive my absence for the last couple of weeks with trips to the very intriguing Belarus and ever impressive Poland plus studio commitments (trying to create a few Summer anthems of course!) I've had to take stock! But with a bumper Bank Holiday weekend in store I'm primed and ready to go.
Poise at Sobar, Birmingham bring you a weekly fix of House & Bass with urban influences from the Midlands' finest Djs and upcoming talent. This week the sublime Marc Spence headlines alongside resident Pete Graham.
Moving into Saturday and great to see new nights cropping up in Kidderminster. And with successes in Ibiza, Pareja hit the town with their tropical Adventures Tour. DJs include Matt Bennett, Ali O'Sullivan and James Newman.
Elevate at 7's Nightclub in Burntwood continue to bring the heat with their Bank Holiday special with DJs Will Bailey and Becki De Funk.
Bringing the Bass to Monty's in Sedgely will be ill Phill and Craig Price.
Twisted team up once more at the Prince Albert, Wolverhampton for a back-to-back DJ special. Tom Shorterz, Cause & Effect, Danny Jones, Brett Walters, Alex Hughes and James Hughes will be providing the soundtrack.
It's honestly refreshing to write about something off the cuff in Clubland and Raw based in Wolverhampton certainly is the purveyor of diversity. This time around they hook up with The Bop! to take over The Frixxion warehouse for a night of eclectic grooves.
Birmingham is looking lively for your Saturday night with another refreshing twist at Spotlight in Digbeth for The Celestial Recordings Showcase. This label is bringing us some serious tracks right now. Get down to hear them live.
Second City take over the Terrace at Bushwackers again with another dose of Chicago influence jackin beats. Mr. Pickle and Tom Special Interest are among the star cast of Djs.
Swiftly onto your extended weekend and Bank Holiday Sunday brings us these delights. All funk'd up is a classic vocal and funky house at Moochers Jailhouse in Stourbridge. DJ Brett A will be in deck control.
Ego is a brand new late night concept in Wolverhampton. With a 6AM license at Walkabout they've brought together some great DJs to put on a mighty show. Hannah Wants, Rossco, Edd Cooke, Joe Campbell and Darryl Williams are all here.
I'm delighted to be playing at Mechu in Summer Row. This place never disappoints to attract the who's who of Birmingham and creating a vibrant atmosphere. Adding more glamour as it's a masquerade party to bring out your devilish side! Djs include Gavin James, Ashley West, Jen Kaye and Paul Henry.
Glas at Rainbow set for another stellar production from day threw to night with Hector Couto headlining and 2.31 have a bank holiday showcase with Breach.
Have to give a special mention to IF at Bushwackers. As when many club nights steal the limelight for a short while this place has been consistent for seven years now and is still at the top of its game! Celebrating by bringing in DJs Max Chapman and Matt Jam Lamont with resident Onefour.
