SLAUGHTER ON THE DANCEFLOOR!!

Ale Fillman

WHOA!! It’s taken me all day today to recover from last night!  Ale Fillman & Prolific really murdered the sound at ESP!!  The music was bangin as soon as  Whisperlink started the show with his uncompromising style.  Prolific came through with some heavy drum & bass riddims and moved seamlessly into a funky set of dubstep stormers, all while rocking the mic and keeping everybody jumping.  Definitely a strong presence from Foul Play Records.  Then Ale Fillman brought some serious heat to the dance with his very first selection, dropping sick, sick tunes full of energy and to massive crowd response.  He was jumping around behind the decks and bangin out mixes.  His set was full of stormers, to say the least.

Prolific

Both Prolific and Fillman displayed some wicked off-the-cuff cuts and scratches over heavy hip hop flavored tracks.  The energy was always high, moving between a more grinding style of funk to more excited and aggressive.  A great set of music from both artists, not least to mention the mighty Whisperlink, who alongside Werd2Jah opened the night with a roaring set.

AntiMatter picked up after Ale Fillman, keeping the energy high for the first part of his performance then closing out the night with fatt beats and exclusive dubs from Atlanta producers Trench, Distal, Mayhem, and Section 8.

There was a mixed crowd at Niche for ESP, which is definitely a sign of good health.  There were many new faces than usually seen around town at local dubstep events.  People came from Nashville, Kentucky, and Jacksonville.  And there were plenty of ladies in the house, too.

Big Up to our friends Mayhem, Ployd, Distal, Mite, Zagga, 818, and Jeremy for coming thru and showing us love.  Mad love to the performers for holding it down and ripping it up, and to Werd2Jah & Proppa for keeping the mics hot.

Sit tight for our next session, Atlanta.

SATURDAY, 01 AUGUST, 2009 w/ ALE FILLMAN & PROLIFIC

Our next event is August 01, 2009, featuring Ale Fillman of Dirty Circuit Records, Boulder, Colorado, and Prolific, head of Foul Play Records out of Florida.

Ale Fillman is what some call a mad sound-scientist.  He combines fast-paced mixing and scratching with an onslaught of dubs that will rattle your senses with gritty, glitched-out drum patterns and deep, dark basslines.

Aside from running his successful dubstep label, Dirty Circuit Records (which has released music from the likes of Trillbass, Downlink, and Fragile, to name a few), and producing his own original cuts, Ale co-hosts Dirty Circuit Radio, a popular mix show on Sub.FM where he showcases upcoming filth from various producers in the scene!  We are excited to have Ale at ESP for his first Atlanta appearance!

Whether it’s rocking b-boy jams, ‘tablist parties, microphones, electro/Bmore sets, or an all out dnb or dubstep assault, Prolific is moving the crowd with profound turntable routines, intricate lyrics, and original tracks with a unique flavor.

His heavyweight label Foul Play Records has had chart topping joints in multiple genres and his new project NONSTOPKROOKS w/ CoJaxx is one of the freshest indie groups to hit the industry and is setting its stamp with their album Polish Your Skills.  Prolific holds titles in several turntablist and MC battles from all regions of the USA.  Get ready for one of the most talented musicians/entertainers out of Florida to come rock Atlanta with inimitable style.

Local support from Whisperlink of Abstract Logic Recordings and resident DJ antiMatter. You can get mixes from both in our DJ MIXES section.  Hosted by Proppa and Werd2Jah, plus an all-new live visual show by Enexgee.
