Yes, even I admit it’s well over due!! But the wait is finally over!!!
Thanks for all the messages of congratulations since booking the legendary JUDGE JULES once again - we had so many wonderful calls and messages when Jules gave us the biggest night in Reading in 2009, it was truly something special. The dance floor was completely rammed by 11pm and with Andy Trafford banging out some big hitting House and Electro tracks right from start, it’s fair to say, Mango just went off all night long!
So here it is after the huge success of Jules playing for Raw Filth in Sept 2009 (over 150 people were turned away from Mango!) we have invited the man back to rock the party in a very special PIMPS & WHORES themed event!
Its time for the guys to don their finest pimp hat, get the moustaches ready and prepare the chest rug. The whores will be out in force in their frilly knickers, uplifting bra's or whatever naughty outfits they can find! One things is for sure, it will be an amazing sight! Always a memorable night in the calendar, do not miss this unique one off party!
The DJ's on the night;
International Superstar DJ and Radio 1 Legend
Jules began playing in 1987, launching the career that has easily notched up hundreds of thousands of miles, millions of spins of the decks and countless gigs in far-flung destinations, as well as the odd dirty warehouse thrown in for good measure. Jules’ DJ sets are the epitome of what DJing is about - passion, amazing tunes and a set of hands capable of the most nimble of mixing.
With a list of awards that would make the American Olympic team blush, Jules has earned his place amongst the DJ aristocracy. Rarely out of DJ Mag’s top 15 in the annual Top 100 DJs poll, Jules has won such accolades as - “Best DJ” (Muzik Awards), No.1 DJ (Mixmag reader’s poll), “Best International DJ” (Dancestar), and “Best Radio DJ” at the Smirnoff Dancestars.
Awards aside, there is no doubt that Jules remains one of the most popular figures in dance music, who has had the pleasure of playing some of the most sought-after gigs - notably for his beloved Arsenal FC and also, in January 2007, at the 20/20 one-day Australia v’s England cricket match at Sydney Cricket Ground.
This was Jules killing it last time!
If there were a big name to come to Reading to tear RAW FILTH up... we could not wish for anyone else...
Porno-groove duo Paul Jay and Shaun Southall, aka FFF, have been busy boys since coming together in 2006, making a mockery of the traditional back to back DJ duo by remaining on the decks at all times, coming up only for air and jäger. Their sets ooze countless acapellas, loops, re-loops, filters and layers with massive build-ups and drops.
It was only a matter of time before some of the biggest brands in the industry wanted to get in on the action. Promotions like Hed Kandi, Pukka Up, Ministry of Sound, Gorgeous, Flawless, Connected, Smartie Partie, Toolroom, Lamerica, Kick Da Night and Dusted have all recruited the boys to provide maximum exposure, and obviously bring a completely different set to the table. Being busy boys rocking thousands of clubbers every month means that they’ve have had plenty of practice to perfect their now-known enthusiasm and technical ability behind the decks to work the crowd into what can only be described as a ‘frenzy’.
FFF now incorporate their own productions into every set. Several tracks have now signed up by Stylus Recordings, who will be releasing an EP in 2010, containing a handful of their tracks which have already been tearing up Europe's dance floors by both FFF, and some of the names they’ve played with through the years…
We need no introduction to welcome back this devilish and dirty duo.... Known for their Jacked up, Loud N Proud filthy Electro Shenanigans... Only Happy when they are stood up on the Decks, saluting their crowd.. These boys have been there.. torn up.... and shredded the scene since we last had our liaison, and are well on their way to Dirty Stardom...
Neil The Porno and Grim Cowboy make up, and are the head Honcho's of the Dirty Cowboys DJ collective.
The are known globally for being a showcase and genre breaking, technical duo of Filthy Electro and breaks. Cutting the scene up from an early age, has kept the young rodeo's finger's on the pulse, and on the edge of everybody’s lips! Firm local hero's and Now Internationally growing young superstar's. known For their Multi genre Mixing skills, and pure adrenalin behind the decks, the Boys stand out from the crowd both in stage presence, and raw natural enthusiasm for their trade, starting young has definitely paid off for these Musical Magician's. Now Holding a Residency with the Massive London Outfit The Heavyweights, and successful Production making its way on to Track It down.net and backing from Fakt records, and Very soon a massive International Label.... That has to be Kept Quiet...there is now no stopping the Duo.
With such support of Radio1’s Judge Jules, Eddie Halliwell, Trophy Twins, Ed Real, Nick Sentience, Tim Sheridan and Coburn, to name just a handful These Boys are a Firm Favorite by all who witness them, and a name that will take a while to withdraw from your lips once witnessed live.
Hold Tight..... and Prepare to Dance..... Yeeeee Har ! …
Shane Davies is a young, talented, up and coming DJ from the south east of England. His passion for electronic music came from the dance floors of big London haunts such as Turnmills and Ministry of Sound where he was captivated by how the big jocks and residents alike would conduct the music to send a crowd wild. It was this which inspired Shane to first get a pair of decks.
It wasn't long till Shane developed his own driving, uplifting, vocal and melodic sound which can be seen put across in his sets with such power behind the decks. Not only does Shane perform with a high degree of energy and enthusiasm which he feeds from the crowd but his technical ability which allows him to manipulate the music by sampling, looping and effecting tracks to remix them live in front of your ears, which makes his sound unique. It's this wizardry behind the decks that has led Shane to securing big gigs such as the legendary boat parties with Electronic Sessions, The Gallery @ Ministry of Sound, Raw Filth (Reading) and his very own brand new show ON THE BRINK on one of the world’s leading internet dance stations slinky.fm. As well as being a part of these big nights Shane was also nominated by Ministry of Sound as BEST BREAKTHROUGH DJ of 2009 at this year’s Ministry of Sound/ The Gallery awards which was a "complete honor to of even being considered for this award."
So for the next Raw Filth event you can expect an array of Shane's own productions and personal edits, put over the decks in his own unique way which is not worth missing!
Andy has been collecting music and DJing since 1989. In the early 90’s he played in some of the best clubs in and around London including The Gardening Club in Covent Garden and at Mirage in Windsor
In more recent years Andy has played in various countries around the world including Greece, Thailand and Australia.

Andy’s awesome Vinyl 10-12 set of Uplifting / Dirty House music will provide the perfect musical platform for the night ahead and nail you to the dance floor as soon as you arrive. After the success of Andy’s set on the last Judge Jules night where the club was virtually full at 11pm this night is sure to be an equally brilliant affair!
