J Dilla Changed My Life - London/Manchester/Brighton (3rd-5th February)

For the sixth year running the UK is set to celebrate the life and work of the irreplacable James 'J Dilla'  Yancey - but this year is special, as the show is set to take to the road with three seperate events in London, Manchester & Brighton. The dream team of DJs, including Mr Scruff, Mr Thing, Harry Love & many more, will once again be joined on stage at all three events by last year's suprise guest, Dilla's mother, Maureen 'Ma Dukes' Yancey. Dilla's long-term friend and collaborator Phat Kat will also be hosting the events and will be performing some of his own Dilla-produced classics. I'll be down at the Manchester gig paying tribute to my favourite producer of all-time, and will hopefully see some of you there - it's going to be a special night. All the info you need for the 3 dates are after the jump. R.I.P. Jay Dee.

Parklife 2012 - Early Bird Tickets

On Friday October 14th @ 9am, the early bird tickets for Parklife 2012 (Manchester) will go on sale.

Next Friday will see a very small number of super-saver early bird tickets go on sale at the bargain price of £49.50 for the whole weekend. There will only be 500 of these tickets available and we expect them to sell out very quickly indeed. These will be the only tickets released before the main launch of Parklife early in the New Year.
