After kicking off in December 2008 Trancefusion is going from strength to strength bringing you bigger and better nights.
*********************************************
This February Trancefusion will be joined by none other than Neal Thomas!!!!
*********************************************
Neal Thomas prides himself on having a style that is unique and that offers something different to the scene. His music is full of energy and drive, the atmosphere he creates is driven by a passion for clubbing and music… you will always catch him dancing, be it in the crowd or behind the decks! He has even been known to go on the dance floor during a set! These antics have contributed to making him one of the most loved, entertaining, and respected DJ's around.
**********************************************
Neal’s career really began when he earned his residency at Liverpool’s leading club Garlands aged 18. He quickly became a firm favourite with the Garlands crowd, with the club actually selling out for his 4 hour leaving set. Leaving in 2004 to put more emphasis on his career nationally, he soon started playing nationwide for GoodGreef. Neal’s growing fan base have followed him around the country to see him playing at some of GoodGreef’s biggest and busiest nights; including the 5th & 6th birthday events at Nation in Liverpool, Manchester Academy, 53 Degrees, The Tuxedo Princess in Newcastle and most impressively numerous gigs at Tall Trees in Yarm (England’s biggest club).
*********************************************
Other top gigs include Sundissential North at Evolution in Leeds, The Infamous Tidy Christmas Party & Tidy Weekender, Eddie Haliwell’s FireItUp events, Storm at The Emporium in Coalville, Frantic's 11th Birthday at Koko in London, The Hard Dance Awards at The Plug in Sheffield, Alex Kidd’s underground festival Kiddstock 2007 & 2008 and Gatecrasher Summer Sound System!!
**********************************************
Neal has made appearances, and had his sets broadcast, on Liverpool radio stations New Hayes Radio, 107.6 Juice FM. Radio City 96,7 and Galaxy FM, as well as having mixes broadcast live from Garlands. Neal has also appeared on Galaxy FM’s NU BREED show and as a result was asked to play at Yoji Biomehanika’s one off night at Nation, Yoji & Friends.
**********************************************
Neal's international career took off in 2006 for hard house legends Tidy Vs Extreme Euphoria as their weekly pool party resident. His success earned him a regular slot warming up the crowd for Cream @ Bar M, earning himself somewhat of a reputation with workers and holiday makers alike. 2007 brought more success, playing Freqklash and the Goodgreef closing party at Es Paradis, various boat parties and pre parties, and returning this year for Kiddfectious’ Ibiza 2008 events.
***********************************************
Neal's productions include his debut track C64 (signed to Traffic Records) and a techno remix of CRW – ‘I feel love’. These tracks are currently storming the clubs and attracting a great deal of interest.
Most recently his tracks 'Evolve', 'The Virus', 'Avalancha', 'Ripper' & 'Chemical Bass' have had regular plays on Radio One and received backing from Judge Jules & Kutski. These tracks have also been signed to Traffic records with the first three due to be released as an EP in February 2009, and the others being on Traffic’s Music Journal in March 2009, Neal and Traffic have plans for an artists album in 2009.
With more exciting plans in the coming months, Neal Thomas is certainly a star in the making!
***********************************************
Kutski (Radio 1) – "In times when the variation of music in the harder scene is at an exciting peak, Neal has separated himself from the masses by crafting his own unique brand of techy, hard dance!! Every time i see a new track come in from this guy, I'm almost sure I'll be supporting it before I hear it, which is a real rarity these days!! Add this to an ever increasingly busy DJ diary, and you know this boy is going to be one to watch closely over the next 12 months!!!"
Barry Almond (PFA/Goodgreef) – “Neal is one of the north's finest rising talents, and is a very versatile and skillful DJ. He has been gaining a great following from his various GoodGreef gigs across the U.K. & Ibiza”
Susan Clay (Frantic) – “I remember watching Neal play at Garlands years ago, and he had the room packed for the whole of his set. He’s kept that crowd-pulling skill as he’s progressed, and I still love watching his sets now.”
Amber D (Tidy/Chic) – “The one to watch for sure. Not only has he got the talent, he's also got the looks!”
Alex Kidd (Goodgreef)– “Neal Thomas' dashingly rugged handsomeness is only matched by his superb skills behind the decks, from all the up and coming talent and out of all the nu-breed DJ's that are climbing the ladder, this star in the making certainly gets my vote. Musically versatile and now also pushing his creativeness in the studio, I expect big things to come for this young whippersnapper!”
***********************************************
Also joining Neal will be Loki's very own Richard Alexander!
***********************************************
Richards new brand Loki will be collabarating with Xposed on its launch night and he will be playing alongised Goodgreef very own Shan.
***********************************************
Richard grew up in Liverpool but relocated and thrown himself into the Manchester music scene 2 years ago.
He had a very short fling with House music about a year ago but luckily for us in 2009 he is now back to concentrate on the trance and electronica side of the spectrum.
***********************************************
Trance in its purest form is how to describe his style - tough & driving when it suits but melodic, synths & strings, hands in the air every time. In 2008 Richard played at various venues across Manchester such as Sankeys, Area 51, Ampersands and Plush all on a regular basis. You can expect to see him through February at Branded, Versatlie and Loki v's Xposed aswell as gracing our own decks so we look forward to seeign what he can do!!
***********************************************
We also have our very own well establised residents Dj Woz and Louie Fzzard doing what they do best aswell as another addition in some more local talent making his Southport debut. El Rigby, El is quite elusive at the moment on the scene so we can wait to see what this guy can do!!
***********************************************
This is going to be our biggest night so far and is definately not to be missed!!!
