Groove Armada and Dimitri From Paris
This is a spotlight on two separate outfits.... but both are influenced by DISCO... Groove Armada and Dimitri From Paris. As the French Ambassador of house music, Dimitri from Paris is everything his nation could be proud of: a DJ, producer, and remixer of the highest standard, and a stylish snake-hipped pin-up with French reserve. In a nutshell, there are two distinct sides to Dimitri: a undeniable dandy and, a devoted dance music fanatic. Groove Armada are a big beat group/dj duo from England, composed of two members, Yorkshireman Andy Cato (real name Andrew Cocup) and Tom Findlay, hailing from Cambridge. They are now primarily based in London, and continue to produce and record music as well as hosting semi-regular club nights in London and an annual London festival under the Lovebox banner. |

Jhevon Paris with August
Jhevon Paris with August. In a game that's over saturated with artists who often choose to be someone else as opposed to being who they are due to someone else's vision, Jhevon Paris has decided to go a route that many will find controversial. The Rock City Born Rapper/vocalist/songwriter's music brings a graphic depiction of topics that most would find unsuitable to touch on, "I'm not just swearing every second like an idiot, when you stop bobbin your head and listen, I'm story telling and touching on situations that I've actually went through, this whole album is real! It's my escapades given to you uncut." |
