New article out today in the Sheffield press. A very interesting read particularly if you have been effected by the owner of this brand. We went court in 2019 with Simon Raine over money owed us...

The Secret DJ should have a word with Nick Gibbs who interviewed people on all sides for The Ibizan after Gatecrasher's abortive takeover of Eden. Not only did Gatecrasher rip off the workers there but they kept hold of their NIA's despite promising to give them back preventing the workers from working anywhere else in Spain. Proper scum.
 
Gatecrasher is a lesson in how some club busineses work. Bottom of the power chain get ripped off constantly while headliners get paid, lending credibility to fraudsters and attracting new people to get scammed with their 'fame'. At some point someone with some clout gets knocked and calls it out.

Lots of well known DJs have worked with the same promoter in London for decades, getting paid while knowing he fleeces a new generation of want-to-be DJs and promoters year on year. The Cross and Pacha London were busy under this model for the whole of the 2000s.

Say the other dj is on a very sticky wicket, whatever verbals have happened prior

Yup, given the tweet is from a mate of the DJ doing the punching, it's hardly an unbiased view.

Didn't know he'd been accused of rape (Fat Tony, not the bloke who whacked him, to be clear), but internet doesn't seem throw up a conviction, just interviews where he says he'd been wrongly accused.

No doubt he's probably an annoying fool from some of his own accounts, but that's about it. Not really sure why anyone would think taking to the net to laud his attacker, even if they are your mate, is a good idea.
 
Plenty of comments around the net claiming FT was being aggressive and threatening, but that's not what the video tweeted above shows. Unless he somehow became considerably less confrontational just before the bloke smashed him, those comments are just defending a particularly nasty assault
 
Follow a lad from Bristol/SW on insta where there seem to be a thriving scene of free-parties still 🙌

Know there are a few crews doing it around this way Manchester/Lancashire/Yorkshire but understandably difficult to find out about them. Nothing but respect to the people who do it around here, for no financial benefit.

Cokenfold has plenty of time to post crap on Instag but not a single word on Alfredo, the man he ripped off to get where he is today... which tells you everything you need to know about that congealed sack of botox

That's properly ridiculous from him! Disappointed to read that.
 
Dave Guetta has said in an interview he is focusing on new music not samples...someone has already quipped in the comments that there aren't any 80s/90s songs he hasn't ripped off left :)

Bristol is brilliant for free parties with easy access to the Welsh hills, Marlborough Woods in Wiltshire and The Forest of Dean Bank Holiday weekends especially can get quite hectic :)

As a local, am interested to hear what his instagram name is. Just so I can avoid the area, of course....
