Heh, as well as the cream of Bristol DJs, Hot Buttered Soul occasionally like to bring you the country's finest craftsmen .. so we're proud to present London's RED GREG ladies and gentleman, our very special guest DJ for July at Hot Buttered Soul. ** About RED GREG: Red Greg aka Darren Griffiths grew up in East London and got his first taste of DJ'ing around '85 after gathering a few records and listening to local sound systems and dj mix tapes from Froggy (RIP) and Derek B. (RIP) who were both DJs at his local club. Shortly afterwards he started playing Funk, Soul, Rare Groove, Go Go, House and Acid, however his love affair with Disco & Boogie didn't start until a few years later in '88. With an ever-growing collection and passion for the underground sound he met DJ Louis Heel at a London gig and the two launched their own club night, 'Ebonite', the night has become a huge success. Darren's depth of knowledge, diggin' passion and technical ability has led to worldwide DJ gigs including the revered NYC party 'Love Chant', plus Paris' 'Mona', 'Club Sandwich' and the legendary 'Maxim's'. More recently Darren has been approached by Joey Negro, aka Dave Lee to compile a forthcoming Disco/Boogie compilation 'Under The Influence', which is due for release shortly on his Z Records label. Red Greg has also been busy in the studio editing his favourite tracks, some of which have found their way onto vinyl, and onto his Hot Buttered Soul mix (download link below) .. ** So, expect nothing less than a soundtrack of high-end soulful Disco gems with a sprinkling of Boogie goodness to match and maybe one or two surprises. It'll be an 'all vinyl affair', just how we like it! Hot Buttered Soul's record-changer Mike Shawe will also be at the controls. In the meantime check out his exclusive mix for Hot Buttered Soul: http://www.divshare.com/download/15149047-917 And for a further taste of the RED GREG sound check his page for more free downloads, nice. http://waxdj.com/djs/28 ** So get excited .. tell your friends .. and click 'attending' .. for this party's gonna rock x Hot Buttered Soul presents RED GREG Saturday 16th July 2011 The Bank of Stokes Croft 84 Stokes Croft Bristol BS1 3QY ** facebook
