Last Saturday was one of the best clubnights for us in a long time! Not much to it then to check out the photos and videos below. Thanks to Joy Orbison, Jackmaster, Girl Unit, Presk, Trouw and all people that came out to witness, we had a blast! We will see each of them return to Colors without a doubt. Also keep your ears on the ground for our ADE program, It will be solid as a rock!

After this successful first edition with Roska and Untold as headliners, Colors now strikes back with an even fatter line-up than the one in May. No one else than London’s wonderboy Joy Orbison, and Glaswegian all rounder Jackmaster will make their Dutch debut and will set fire to Trouw’s Funktion-one soundsystem on Saturday the 24th of July. Next to that, Presk and Colors resident Cinnaman will be present to provide you with the ‘funk’ you need. This is definitely a night you should not miss out on!

Source Festival 2010, a well organised festival in the region of Utrecht with a capacity of around 7000 people. Names on the bill were Theo Parrish, Robert Hood and Mala, Aardvarck, Koze and Superpitcher to name but a few. Despite a beautifull day, the organisation had to evacuate all visitors around 21.30 because of the VERY bad weather conditions that struck the festival site all over sudden. The Source crew was therefor forced to cancel the second day of the festival. A big Shame, as the vibe was extremely good, and we had that real festival feeling we hadn’t felt for some time. We had the pleasure to work names like Mala, Silkie and Quest, while on their turn, they were able to play on King Shiloh Sound System, where we think their music belongs. It was a real honor to be part of a festival of such size and hopefully we will return to Source next year! Check out the photo and video review of our day at Source Festival below.

Lockdown blaast je weg op Source Festival 10 juli
Bij Lockdown ben je aan het juiste adres voor reggae, dubstep en experimentele beats.
Bredda Neil on King Shiloh Soundsystem staat garant voor onvervalste reggae in de Rastafari traditie. Het Britse dubstep-icoon Mala komt je trakteren op een portie experimentele beats. Silkie & Quest zijn onlosmakelijk verbonden met het label van Mala, Deep Medi. Ondersteund door King Shiloh Soundsystem zullen ze de Lockdown stage op zijn kop zetten met hun melodieuze, soulvolle sound.
De Estlandse L-ow werd in de jaren negentig gegrepen door het speed garage virus maar legt nu al zijn passie in dubstep waarbij de aandacht voor detail en melodie groot is. Cinnaman is de man achter dubstepplatform Viral Radio en brengt een mix van progressieve elektronica, experimentele beats, UK funky, abstracte hiphop en rauwe dubstep naar Source. DJ+ is een ware veteraan als het aankomt op ondergrondse elektronische muziek. Hij is resident van Sonic Warfare en Dubstep aGoGo en radiomaker bij Red Bull Music Academy. Een jongeman die zich weet aan te passen, zowel aan de stroming als zijn publiek. Akkachar speelt net zo makkelijk ‘electrobreakzdubsteptechnobootymiamibass’ als Detroit georiënteerde deephouse. Een man vol verrassingen dus.
Een ding is zeker, de bassen op de Lockdown stage zullen je regelrecht van je sokken blazen.
Source Festival, 10 & 11 Juli 2010, Nedereindse Plas Utrecht. Lockdown is op 10 juli

The third mix for Lockdown has arrived and it’s by nobody else than Rwina imprint boss, Akkachar. A solid 30 minute mix with nothing else than fresh dubs and recently released tunes. Akkachar was able to establish himself, and his Rwina label, with the huge A Milli EP by Starkey late 2008, which was followed up by releases from Playdoe, the Scotland-based Taz Buckfaster, another Starkey, Eprom with his Humanoid EP and the lastest, but not the least, SRC with the mighty Gion Out EP. With forthcoming releases by Rachet, Swindle, Terror Danjah and Doshy, all scheduled later this year, we can say that Akkachar has steadily been building on a label that can be considered as the number one Dutch label of its kind. Have a look the tracklist, download the mix below and turn up your speakers! Enjoy!
