HERVÉ – Since the death of James Brown, Joshua ‘Hervé’ Harvey AKA The Count of Monte Cristal (with Sinden), Voodoo Chilli, Speaker Junk and a host of other monikers is probably the hardest working man in show business. The undisputed king of heavy-weight bass, he runs his own label, Cheap Thrills, has remixed everyone from Bloc Party and Lily Allen to The Chemical Brothers and Prodigy, has a double mix CD on the way, an album as Young Lovers and a new single, Who Da Champ.  How he finds time to also go out with Annie Mac, we have no idea.

FOAMO – Raised on a diet of drum and bass, dubstep, grime and garage in, where else, but High Wycombe, 21 year-old Foamo exploded onto the fidget house scene when his track ‘Moving It Over Here’ was championed by Kissy Sell Out on Radio One. Releasing the most successful track on Lee Mortimer’s Wearhouse records, he’s since remixed Primary One, MSTRKRFT and The Mystery Jets becoming an in-demand DJ across the UK and Europe. This month see him start his exclusive new monthly residency at Chew the Fat!

JESSE TITTSWORTH – Having toured with Kanye West and Kid Sister, Tittsworth’s high energy sets blend Baltimore Club, rave, house, and more.  With praise from the likes of A-Track and Diplo, his music is a permanent fixture in blogs, charts and the press which has led to remixes for everyone from disco legend Grace Jones to favourite DNB frontrunner Subfocus. Tittsworth’s debut album, ‘12 Steps’, features unique collaborations with various A-list vocalists and has gained numerous plays on Ministry Of Sound Radio, Kiss FM (London) and Radio 1.

DUKE DUMONT – Last year’s ‘Hoy’ EP, out on Switch’s über-cool Dubsided imprint, was listed in every discerning DJs end of year charts as was his re-working of the Mystery Jets ‘Two Doors Down’ which gained particular fans in Erol Alkan & Laurent Garnier.  With further remix magic recently sprinkled on Late of the Pier and EPMD, his sets are an exciting mix of deep house & techno with a dose of FX trickery…

A1 BASSLINE – One half of internationally loved electro duo, Partyshank, Christian Sibthorpe began A1 Bassline as a side project to make tunes influenced by his first musical love, garage. When the power of blogs saw his mixtape downloaded 50,000 times however, the ‘Girl Thing EP’ soon saw the light of day on Tapedeck’s Meal Deal Records. He has since worked his sound, a mixture of 4×4 garage, bassline and electro, on Cadence Weapon, The Qemists featuring Wiley, Yo Majesty! (possibly the world’s only Pentecostal lesbian rappers) and Frankmusik while also playing gigs on both sides of the Atlantic, a strong LA following meaning he returns to California’s Nocturnal Festival in September.

HEY JOE – After bringing his party, No Way Back, to the lounge of Chew the Fat! at The End, Hey Joe takes up monthly residence as warm-up DJ in the main room of Chew the Fat!

HYP HYP HYP PRESENT….. In Room 2 the Hyponik crew throw down with a room of fierce line-up of further fierce bass action. Dubstep innovators Loefah and Distance join Cursor Minor, who was making electro back when it was actually electro. They’re joined by the crunked-up, booty sounds of Tomb Crew and Patchwork Pirates. Brooklyn based beatmeister Kotchy plays live while Rootseady bring their heavy dub sound.

HOLIC PRESENT… Following their long-standing residency at AKA, this Japanese house crew bring their blend of deep, tech, electro, minimal and soulful house to room 3.  Tomoki Tamura plays a four hour set alongside DJ JunkBoxx and more tbc.
