What: Calvin Harris Dj Set

Where: Metros Freo

When: 11 March 2011

Cost/Ticket details: 45+bf, heatseeker

Here’s some good news for Calvin Harris fans who might’ve been worried that they’d need to brave hordes of pimply Rihanna acolytes to catch the UK producer-turned-DJ when he arrives in Australia later this summer to as the pop starlet’s support DJ! Calvin’s doing his own club shows and he is the star guest for Limelites 4th birthday bash!!

As well as the already announced Melbourne date at Super Disco, Calvin Harris will take in a whole bunch of club gigs around the country away from the Rihanna tour, giving fans plenty of chances to watch him do his thing behind the decks and promote the new Onelove Sonic Boombox compilation.

Music artist

Malente

Malente looks like a madman, and that’s because he is, but he knows how to get a good party started. Lucky for you he’s playing this Friday night at Limelite (event info). He’s quoted as saying “evolve or die” in relation to his changing musical styles. He’s been a great artist to periodically follow because he’s mastered the ability to update his sound and stay interesting. If you want a taste of his evolving sound then read on after the jump…

LIMELITE Presents YACHT CLUB DJS supported by Jus Haus?, The Pearly Whites, Zelimir, Suave & D Tuck

LIMELITE is gonna see out 2010 staying true to form by unleashing the buzz act of the year! Always loaded with goodness we will be reigniting one of our favourite nights. Remember when the dancefloor warped into a pit of swarming energetic bodies close to rioting? One night sails into mind … that time we went yacht clubbing.

The …mighty YACHT CLUB DJs roll in over the high seas and return to LIMELITE to wave in 2011. The mash-up merchants bring their mixes and melds of every-fkn-genre-imaginable back to the port of Freo for one mother of a PJ party!

Yacht Club are going to tear apart your favourite songs and smash them back together amidst a flurry of flying pyjamas, nudity, crowd invasions, dancing on the decks and general looseness. Downstairs the mainroom decks will be awash with our local land lubbers Jus Haus?, The Pearly Whites and Zelimir smashing out the tunes.

Climb the mast to level 2 where Suave will be serving up latino salsa at our sleepover. For sounds more ghetto D Tuck will be steering the ship to the land where hip hop and commercial cross over. With mashups downstairs and party favourites upstairs the bighouse will be shaking.

Go to bed with the Limelite crew for the maddest slumber party of your life waving goodbye to 2010. Don’t forget your PJs: sleep not included!

The Only & Ajax @ Razar


What: Razar feat. The Only & Ajax

Where: Metros Freo

When: 10 December 2010

Cost/Ticket details: 15/20 door sales

RAZAR is the redhead bastard stepson of that new wobbly sound. The very spawn of when nu-skool electro went to bed with heavy bass whilst filthy dubstep watched begging to join in. Razar is inspired by all things French and enjoys a swig of indie on the weekends. The only way to unleash this abomination is with a mutha fking rave party on Friday, December 10.

Selling out nights, creating blood baths at festiv…als, championed by Aoki, remixing and being remixed THE ONLY are clearly sitting pretty in club land. Absolutely unique and prided for being leftfield with their method of delivery The Only induce frothing at every set. They have been smashing the ARIA chart with their debut “The Only F*cking Rave Party” and dive in for their Bad Girls Go to Hell tour.

In the land of mash-up AJAX is King. Self proclaimed Dance Legend and piss taker and voted Best or favourite DJ by anyone that fkn matters over the years. Ajax formulated the blueprint for a new kind of DJ set – the mash-up kind that he and the Bang Gang DeeJays would become renowned for. His label Sweat It Out paves the way for music as we know it. The master of 3 cdjs he will cut and paste his way through the flesh of electro.

Supported by purveyor of wobbles and sweat Jus Haus? and Moe Steez & Master Dash for some acid washed funk.

Music review

Everyone wins

The Bingo Players brought the house party to Limelite on Friday night. It was a really good night, plenty of people on the dance floor and plenty cheering and clapping for the Dutch duo. With their style of house music it’s pretty easy to see why people were having such a good time. Full review after the jump…

Pearly Whites & Friends @ Limelite


What: Pearly Whites & Friends

Where: Metros (Freo)

When: 22 October 2010

Cost/Ticket details: 10/15, door sales

From the bedroom, to the backyard, to mixing it alongside the big boys The Pearly Whites have hit the ground running. Its been a massive year for the duo and with an epic countdown to their set at Stereosonic we have handed over the reins. Our shiny toothed lads call the night their own and take control of the bookings, support slots and programming on October 22 for The Pearly Whites & Friends at Limelite.

It kicked off when… JS and Mo’Fly paired up with a little mixtape sent into Limelite HQ five minutes before the closing of entries. The Pearly Whites were born and they sailed through the heats to be crowned winners of the first “Into the Limelite DJ Competition”. Embracing gold saw them smashing out party mash up set at Creamfields. Since then they played alongside superstars Drop the Lime and Anoraak at Limelite and secured gigs at almost every bangin club around town. Even scoring a one hour live set guest slot on RTR FMs “trainwreck”.

Phetsta’s DJ skills have seen him tour both nationally and overseas, including two eight week long sell out tours of Europe and one in The United States. His music has found its way into the record boxes of the likes of Pendulum, Grooverider, Andy C and Annie Mac. Expect a mixture of electro, dubstep, DnB and everything in between with expert mixing over three decks

M!SPR!NT exploded onto the scene with one of his earliest gigs taking him all the way to the limelite finals. Since then he’s been in high demand playing gigs at geisha, ambar, limelite, bar open and recently scoring support for Jack Beats and Aston Shuffle at villa. This man knows how to make a dance floor move.

DNRGFLD is the front runner and main man behind break the seal. Winner of the Mullaloo beach DJ comp this home boy plays everything from funk to breaks and knows how to bring the rukkus.

Mister Ed was an intelligent palomino horse who could talk. Mr.ED however is a nu school DJ, who’s style is hard to top and makes for exciting sets. As head honcho of Beat off, and a bar open and ambar regular, you can expect a set filled with party style electro and breaks.

Witness The Pearly Whites tear the place a new one with friends in tow

dishing out an array of electro, dubstep, breaks and party with a sprinkling of madness to make you move.

Its been a huge huge year for the boys, releasing tracks through Defected, building a new iphone app and website and the biggest new of all, filming a reality tv show for Foxtel. So grab a late night date and head down to welcome the guys back and get your funniest face on the idiot box.
