The Big Chill House, Kings Cross www.bigchillhouse.net/house

On Saturday 30th April Amstel and The Big Chill Present 'Scratch' who this year celebrate ‘15 Years Of Hip Hop’ as one of the capital’s leading Hip Hop parties. For this monumental occasion we are truly blessed with a rare individual performance from DJ Primecuts, one the UK's most well known and respected turntablist DJ's.

DJ Primecuts first played at Scratch back in 98' and it was clear even in the early days that this DJ had special skills on the 'Wheels of Steel'. One year later and he and the other Scratch Perverts, (Tony Vegas, Mr Thing and First Rate) went on to win the world-renowned 99' World DMC Team title, in NYC.



Since then the Perverts with Primecuts, Tony Vegas and Plus One at the helm have gone from strength to strength, not just touring the world showcasing their world class turntable skills, but also releasing and producing quality music and remixes.



Our second guests should really create quite a stir when they perform live at Scratch on 30th April. The Hackney Colliery Band (releasing music on the excellent Wah Wah 45's record label) are a brass band with a difference, not your typical horn blowers, but brass musicians inspired by the sound of funk and Hip Hop. Expect to hear plenty of Hip Hop covers that should have the whole Scratch crowd singing and chanting from start to finish.



Not forgetting our host for the evening Tukka, the ever reliable resident DJ's Matt Smooth, Richy Pitch, Lyley and Tomski and the usual crews of B-boys and B-Girls

SCRATCH PRESENT : DJ WOODY TURNTABLE IN TECHNICOLOUR !! SATURDAY 26TH JUNE @ THE BIG CHILL HOUSE!!

SCRATCH Present: DJ WOODY'S TURNTABLES IN TECHNICOLOR FULL LIVE AV ON 2 BIG SCREENS

Scratch are proud to announce their special guest as DJ Woody with his awesome AV set

Back in March Woody teamed up with Scratch for the Brits snowboarding event where riders experienced for the first time Woody's newly designed AV set, a DJ set with live videos being scratched and mixed, videos that have actually been created by the very talented Woody himself!

The night in Switzerland was so successful that Scratch felt it necessary to invite Woody back so that the Big Chill House in London could also witness his amazing show. Woody is not only creative with his video, for those that aren't already aware, he is also a former ITF World DJ champion. So combine the visual experience with the audio experience and you have a match made in DJ heaven!

AV is nothing new to Woody infact audio and visuals have been a life long obsession.

Art teachers pet, at school he was that kid who could draw. Along came hip hop culture and music and by the end of school he was that kid who could scratch.

In another life Woody worked fulltime as a graphic designer for Britian’s largest independent TV station (Granada- ITV), a couple of World DJ titles later Woody becomes a fulltime DJ.

Today aided by cutting edge technology these 2 obsessions are finally allowed to co-exist in one creative outlet, enter Turntables In Technicolor.

An all new eye-popping, crowd-rocking AV DJ show designed to blow your mind and move your behind!

Utilizing his televisual design knowledge to create innovative custom visuals for the mix, Woody brings a unique insight and unrivaled DJ skills to the AV scene.

"A highly entertaining and unique take on the AV genre" - HEXSTATIC

As always Scratch also include the usual fresh mix of B-Boys and B-Girls plus the ever reliable, uber funky Scratch residents Matt Smooth, Lyley, Tomski and Richy Pitch!

SCRATCH PRESENT : DJ MR THING & FIRST RATE, HOST MC, JEHST (YNR PRODUCTIONS), & SPIN DOCTOR.

Scratch are proud to announce their next special guests as Mr Thing and First Rate with host MC, Jehst.

Scratch are super proud to announce their next special guests as the incredible turntable party monsters Mr Thing and First Rate with host MC, the lyrically intelligent Jehst.

This event is a particularly exciting for two reasons. Firstly our guests DJ Mr Thing and First Rate come as a pair and will therefore include a very rare 4 turntable performance from two of the UK's finest turntablists.

Both were of course part of the Scratch Perverts back in 1999 when as a foursome (with Tony Vegas and Prime Cuts) they won the DMC World Team Championships with their legendary winning performance in New York.

The second reason this night is special is DJ Mr Thing and First Rate were one of the first DJ guests to perform at Scratch all the way back in the summer of 1996 at what used to be known as the Cross Bar (now the Big Chill House).

Since then, the two have been very much part of the Scratch family on regular occasions, performing at most of the Scratch nights both in the UK and abroad at events such as the MTV Cannes Film Festival and Snowbombing.

So expect to see some absolute magic on the decks from two very special friends of Scratch.

Hosting alongside Mr Thing and First Rate we have another UK Hip Hop stalwart, Jehst. The man who gave us classic cuts such as the critically acclaimed "High Plains Drifter" EP and the man behind the excellent YNR productions record label will be there to bless the mic and keep the crowd very happy!

Alongside our residents Matt Smooth, Richy Pitch, Lyley and Tomski we also welcome Doctors Orders resident DJ, Spin Doctor and as well as the turbo charged B-boy and B-girl battles and free entry before 12 (yes you haven't read that wrong) it guarantees to be an amazing night!
