Christian
Pineiro, Deep blue & Base Italy bring you another double headliner
night with Lee Burridge (UK) and one of San francisco's favorite local
DJ/Producer Miguel Migs.
LEE BURRIDGE BIO:
Lee Burridge (born
November, 1968, Eype, Dorset, Hampshire, UK) is an internationally
recognized DJ, producer and record label owner who helped launch the
underground club scene in Hong Kong during the early 1990s, and today
plays at nightclubs across the world.
Renowned for his DJ sets
that mix together varieties of electronic dance music into the early
hours of the morning, as well as for his antics behind the turntables in
the DJ booth, Burridge was a member of England's Tyrant Soundsystem
(along with DJs Craig Richards and Sasha) and has mixed albums for
labels such as Global Underground, Hooj Choons and Balance.
MIGUEL
MIGS BIO:
Though he didn't found the label, Miguel Migs' productions
(under the Petalpusher and L'isha aliases as well as his own name)
gained the most fame for Naked Music, the house label formed by producer
Jay Denes (aka Naked Music NYC). The template for Naked Music --
audible since its first release, Petalpusher's "Breaking It Down" -- is
smooth, polished, organic house music, much more chilled than mainstream
house and surprisingly song- and musician-oriented for the norm in the
dance world. (Also a contributor to building the Naked Music brand was
Stuart Patterson's exotic artwork; the most immediately identifiable
marriage of audio and visual since Designers Republic first designed a
Warp sleeve.)
Migs, born Miguel Steward, grew up in Santa Cruz
and was playing guitar in a local reggae band named Zion Sounds when he
began producing on his own. He released his first record (the Mercury
Lounge EP) in 1998 on La Casa, and his mellow house tracks began showing
up in DJ sets on the West Coast; a bastion of chilled house thanks to
pioneering mixers like Mark Farina. Jay Denes, who had already produced a
full-length as Naked Music NYC (distributed through the like-minds at
San Francisco's OM), invited Migs to contribute the first release to his
new Naked Music label (formed with Dave Boonshoft) and the results
earned notice throughout the dance community. While Naked Music began
work on a series of well-received compilations (Nude Dimensions, Carte
Blanche), Migs produced for labels including Yoshitoshi, Large Music,
and NRK, occasionally in tandem with DJ Rasoul (as Nite Source). He also
mixed a few Naked Music compilations, including 2000's Nude Dimensions:
Petalpusher Sessions and 2002's Nude Tempo One. His first full
production album, Colorful You, appeared late in 2002 as part of a
distribution deal with Astralwerks.
