Geiom & Falty DL @ DubWar Fri, Apr 16

Friday, April 16, 2010
The Berkane Sol founder Geiom makes his debut at Dub War this month. His anthem "Reminiscin" saw remix treatment by scene heavyweights Skream, Kode 9, and Shackleton. He has since continued to push the envelope, exploring 2-step garage and house way before it was fashionable in dubstep. He introduced the world to Brackles, Shortstuff and Spamchop through his Berkane Sol label, and has continued to produce uncompromising new sounds and tempos under his new Hem alias.

Then the New Yorker Falty DL makes an overdue return to Dub War. Since playing his first ever live show at Dub War last year, he has released an album and an ep on Planet Mu, seminal 12"s on Ramp and Rush Hour, and has found himself in demand around the world for his unique take on UK garage, jackin house, and IDM.

+ residents Joe Nice, Dave Q, Juakali and Incyde hold down the fort this month.
