SLAM AT FUSION IN GERMANY.... ........ .... ....INTRO: The legendary UK techno duo of Stuart McMillan and Orde Meikle have travelled far and wide, touring Australia, the USA , Europe, South America and Japan and they hold residencies at 3 of the UK's best clubs (Pressure & Return To Mono in their home town of Glasgow and Fabric in the nation’s Capital, London.) .... SLAM ON FIRE: The last 2 years has been one of their busiest periods ever. Performing dynamic sets at many of the world’s leading festivals including Monegros, Oxygen, Bestival, 10 days off, Extrema, Glastonbury and T In The Park, they have also played at some of the world’s best clubs including the legendary Womb In Tokyo, Cocoon in Frankfurt, Rex in Paris and Berlin's infamous Watergate and Berghain to name a few. They recently celebrated 10 years of their illustrious club night Pressure @ the world famous Arches club in Glasgow with a Mixmag cover mount CD and have started their own Podcast series, recorded live at their Return To Mono club nights the Glasgow bunker, Sub Club. They have had a string of monster releases on their own PARAGRAPH & SOMA imprints, while releasing and remixing on Ovum, Material Series, Mobilee and soon to be Drumcode. .... PARAGRAPH: The first release “City Destroyer”, with its sinister pitched vocals and crafty, crisp and skippy electronic sound-scapes, secured club plays from the likes of Richie Hawtin, Adam Beyer and Laurent Garnier. Paragraph 2, “Hot Knives”, was even bigger staying in the Beatport top 10 for 10 weeks with plays from just about every big name including Carl Craig, Anja Schneider, Dave Clarke and Dubfire. Paragraph 3, 4 and 5 “One Note Samba”, “Variance”, “Heart of the Soul” respectively, were massive successes seeing Slam combine their love and talents for both House & Techno on the same EPs. Slam now bring their friends and peers onto the label to remix the first 5 Paragraph releases with Germany’s finest tag-team, Pan-Pot first to bat. Turning out 2 outstanding remixes, they set the bar high for those who follow, including Harvey McKay, Alan Fitzpatrick, Gel Abril, Adam Beyer & Jesper Dahlback, Steve Lawler, Chris Liebing, Gary Beck and Julien Chaptal. There will also be an album with an exciting new concept based around Paragraph later in the year. .... REMIXES & RELEASES: This surge in activity has put them in demand as remixers with fellow big names such as Josh Wink, Paul Ritch, Pan-Pot and Radio Slave calling on their services. On top off all this they still find the time for new projects like Paragraph records. New releases include Paragraph 5, featuring Slam tracks “Variance” and “Collecting Data”, Paragraph 6, the Pan-Pot remixes of “Room 2” and Slam remixes of Samuel L. Session “Can You Relate”, Paul Ritch “The Wolf” and Fabio Gianelli “Apparlas” on Material. They have recently released an EP, along with Rejected’s Joris Voorn & Edwin Oosterwal, for Podium boss Len Faki’s Figure label, and are soon to be releasing a mammoth Techno work out on Adam Beyer’s Drumcode Label. SLAM have also just remixed Josh Wink ‘Everybody to the Sun’ for Ovum and The Black Dog’s “CCTV Nation” for SOMA. .... SOMA RECORDS: SLAM are also the proud co-owners of Soma Records, which, in its 19th year, continues to be one of the world’s finest purveyors of cutting edge electronic music, with recent releases and remixes from Silicone Soul, the Black Dog, Mihalis Safras, Mark Broom, Joris Voorn, Prompt, Samuel L. Session, Christian Prommer, Radio Slave, Paul Ritch, D'Julz, Adam Beyer, Steve Rachmad, Itamar Sagi, Reset Robot, Gary Beck, Harvey McKay and Funk D Void & Sian. ....

INTRO: The legendary UK techno duo of Stuart McMillan and Orde Meikle have travelled far and wide, touring Australia, the USA , Europe, South America and Japan and they hold residencies at 3 of the UK's best clubs (Pressure [The Arches] & Return To Mono [Sub Club] in their home town of Glasgow and Fabric in the nation’s Capital, London). Their Soma Records label hits its 20th birthday this year, which is quite an achievement in any business never mind the music business. In this prestigious year Slam have also been nominated as the ‘Greatest Dance Act of All Time’ in the institutional UK Dance music magazine Mixmag.

SLAM ON FIRE: The last 3 years has been one of their busiest periods ever. Performing dynamic sets at many of the world’s leading festivals including Monegros, Oxygen, Bestival, 10 days off, Extrema, Glastonbury and T In The Park, they have also played at some of the world’s best clubs including the legendary Womb In Tokyo, Cocoon in Frankfurt, Rex in Paris and Berlin's infamous Watergate and Berghain to name a few. They are about to celebrate 13 years of their illustrious club night Pressure @ the world famous Arches club in Glasgow and have also started their own Podcast series, recorded live from their Return To Mono club nights the Glasgow bunker, Sub Club. They have had a string of monster releases on their own PARAGRAPH & SOMA imprints, while releasing and remixing on Drumcode, Ovum, 8-Sided Dice, Material Series, Ibadan, and Mobilee.

PARAGRAPH: The first release City Destroyer, with its sinister pitched vocals and crafty, crisp and skippy electronic sound-scapes, secured club plays from the likes of Richie Hawtin, Adam Beyer and Laurent Garnier. Since the first release, Paragraph has avoided being pigeon-holed as they combine their love and talents for both House & Techno. Massive tracks like Hot Knives, Variance, Black Gold and Metro Noir have been working crowds the world over, whether it be to festivals of thousands bunkers of hundreds. Up next is the massive Chasing Shadows EP with two Slam originals that are sure to set light to dancefloors the world over.

REMIXES & RELEASES: This surge in activity has put them in demand as remixers. In the immediate future you can expect to see Slam interpretations of Carl Craig’s Paperclip People on Planet E and a massive new track from Alex Under, amongst others. You’ll also note future collabs with artists like Gary Beck and Paul Ritch. Slam have also been tied closely with Adam Beyer’s Drumcode imprint in the last 12 months, seeing 4 singles, Area 51, Crowded Room, Maffaking and Cacophony destroy dancefloors with a hybrid sound of Drumcode thwack and Slam groove. Two brand new tracks have just been signed to the Drumcode 15 Years compilation also. In the last year the duo have also remixed Spencer Parker, Christian Smith, Josh Wink, Paul Ritch, Pan-Pot, Radio Slave & Samuel L Session. SOMA RECORDS: SLAM are also the proud co-owners of Soma Records, which, now in its 20th year, continues to be one of the world’s finest purveyors of cutting edge Electronic music. Soma’s recent releases and remixes include The Black Dog, Heiko Laux & Steve Rachmad, Adam Beyer, Joris Voorn, Silicone Soul, Gary Beck, Regis, Loco Dice, Mark Broom, Nick Curly, Mark Henning, Pan-Pot ++ and upcoming remixes of Slam originals from Carl Craig, Radio Slave, KiNK and Sebo K ++. The 20th birthday celebrations will go on throughout 2011/2012, seeing parties at festivals and clubs around the globe, plus a host of vinyl, digital and box set releases from friends and affiliates over the label’s 20 year history. Big names. Big tracks. Big year!!
