Oblivion Recordings, hailed by DJ Magazine’s Simon Eve as ‘the label to watch in 2006’ have launched Oblivion Digital to run alongside the main label. It is divided into a series of different colour sub labels each representing a particular style of electronic dance music from down tempo grooves through to techno making it easy for DJs to find what they are looking for.
Oblivion Digital Purple (UK hard trance) has already made an impact with debut track ‘Illusion 2006’ by MDA & Spherical vs. DJGRH featuring Donna Marie establishing itself as the number one hard dance track at Trackitdown.net knocking Anne Savage & Vinylgroover off the top spot.
With trance, psy trance, hard house and techno catered for and with the upcoming vinyl release of future anthem, ‘The Butterfly Effect’, by Greg Brookman & Ben Bennett, Oblivion Recordings look set to be taking things to the next level.
DJ Comp Winner & Event update
Before we announce the winner, special mention has to go to a few entries who made it to the final selection stage.
DJ Symbiosis, V-I-C, HiFreak1C, Steve Birch, James Ellis and Andrew Martin all submitted fantastic mixes which merited a 2nd listen and were all very close to being selected.
Now, on to the winner.
The winning entry has come from a 22 year old man from Leeds – PHIL METCALFE
Phil’s mix was exceptionally well constructed and showed a maturity which belies his club DJ’ing experience of only 2 months. It had fantastic tune selection, great mixing and we collectively feel that he is a worthy winner of the competition and are looking forward to having him down to play for us at Innovate.
As mentioned above, you can listen to Phil’s mix from tomorrow on the Innovate web-site – http://www.innovateuk.net

As the Israeliens hit London this Saturday, there is a very special reason to check out this event: the launch of Dali’s debut album Hectic. HarderFaster gets the exclusive scoop on one of psy trance’s leading ladies. [Full Story]
It was Flash Point’s 3rd birthday and time for me to head off to the stunning Fire club for another night of hard house. But it wasn’t any old hard house, it was Insekt‘s version and boy they know how to party. They said ‘let the music do the talking’ and it did just that: Insekt spoke loud and clear. [Full Story]
Slaying the Cerberus
– Craig Gunn talks parties, people and promoting.
A long time ago the Cerberus protected the entrance to Hades, keeping the living out, its three heads lined with teeth. Not so long after, Cerberus helped to keep the nights of the living dead rocking at parties like Quake and Chaos.
These days the three heads are gone and so are the hard trance beats, having been replaced by progressive house and trance. Since his Gallery DJ competition win Craig Gunn has stepped out of the shadow of his ancient influences and into a brave new world lining up with some of the world’s greatest djs. [Full Story]
[IMG]http://www.harderfaster.net/images/features/11374.launch%201108.JPG[/IMG]Dave Joy finally hits London
How is it possible that one of hard trance’s most respected djs and label owners has never played in London? After hearing Dave Joy‘s promo cd and label sampler late last year, not only was I converted from my usual funky house vibes to the dark side, but I knew I wanted to see this man play. After all, he’s djed at some great events around the UK and Europe and, earlier this year, Australia, so why not London?!
My subsequent flirtation with the world of promotion to make this happen is another feature in itself, and probably of little interest to the many jaded HF crew who’ve been there, done that and come out the other side. The purpose of this feature however it to introduce Dave Joy, my favourite hard trance artist, who’s playing his London debut at Electrolysis at the Factory this Friday night. [Full Story]
It seems only yesterday that I came on board with the Proactive team to help with pr for their promotion. It was then a small-to-medium event with a steady label with some solid releases to its name. It’s hard to believe than only a year later I am sat at my desk writing about the first of a long string of events at the legendary Turnmills. Party Proactive has, in short, boomed. London town has been blessed with a promotion that is based 100% on fun, flamboyance and inclusion of all party goers from every walk of life. The most obvious reflection of its growing success is its awesome line ups! [Full Story]
