Trooper

DJ Trooper is an electric force to be reckoned with. His broad musical expertise spanning three decades comes alive in his mixes, bringing the party vibes alive. Never failing to smash the techno and old skool, it’s rave time when Trooper’s in the house.
Trooper has contributed to the legacy of the London party circuit, playing at club nights such as Smash Techno, Stay Up Forever 100, Stay Up Forever after parties, Philanthropy, Braingravy and Lucid, and alongside DJs such Chris Liberator, Aaron Liberator, Julian Liberator, DDR, Geezer, Steve Mills, Gizelle Rebel Yelle, D.A.V.E the Drummer, Rachel Rackitt, Sterling Moss, Birinight, DJ Ant, Jerome Hill, Thermobee, James Kinetec, Syber Symon, Redmond, Tassid, A.P, OB1, Austin Corrosive, Bad Boy Pete, MAXX and many more.
On to top all of this, Trooper has recently returned to the studio, writing tracks with DDR, Steve Mills and The Geezer. His tracks have been released on the
legendary ‘Hazchem’ label, Abusive 303, Project 303 and Project 909 with more tracks ready to go. Keep your ear to the dance floor and listen out for Trooper’s unique energy and sounds.
Over the past 10 years, Trooper has gone from raver on the dance floor to playing on many sound systems including Freebase, E1S, Malfaiteurs, Manik, Storm, Hub, Krysis, Hackney Sounds and plays regularly for Stinky Pink as a resident DJ storming the dance floor with his own take on Acid Techno, also enjoying pushing the speakers to the limits on various rigs at Frenchtek dropping the beats that captured his heart all those years ago. He played at illusive festival in 2015 dropping a back to the old Skool 92 set that had the whole arena bouncing and smiling hard.
But with Trooper’s personal history of dance music and broad musical knowledge, you can also hear him playing a broad spectrum of sounds such as Old Skool 91/92 Rave, Hardcore, Jungle, Drum & Bass, Progressive House,
Acid House, Breakbeat and Electro.
Trooper’s journey with dance music began in 1991 when he was just 16 years of age and was taken out by some older mates to legendary raves such as Elevation, Dance 91, Raindance, Fantazia, Yikes and Interdance, as well as Spiral Tribal and Bedlam sound system parties on the underground free party scene.
The next year, he was introduced to mixing vinyl on the 1210’s by DJ SDR, owner of Shoebox Records. From that point, there was no turning back.
In 1994, Trooper started getting involved with the local music scene and began working at Ruffhouse Records in Slough, who ran Menace sound system.
Always up for a party, he was given the title nickname ‘Trooper’. He was always the last man standing, shortly establishing his turntable skills as ‘DJ Trooper’ on the underground party circuit, playing Jungle and Drum & Bass at parties in London and the South East.
Music House in Holloway Road, London, played a big part
in Trooper’s life. Top Drum & Bass DJ’s went there regularly to cut their latest tracks onto dub plate fresh for the weekend raves. Trooper got involved distributing the ‘Ravescene’ magazine and writing party reviews for raves such as Telepathy, AWOL, Roast, Innersense and Jungle Fever.
Trooper and fellow music comrade, DJ SDR, started the record label ‘Freestyle Flava’ in 1996, experimenting with different styles and beats in the studio under the guise ‘Point 2’. They produced some rockers including ‘Wait 1 Minute’, which was featured on Tony de Vit’s ‘Live in Tokyo’ album. In the studio, they wrote Trip Hop and Broken Beats inspired by Ninja Tune club nights at the legendary Blue Note in Hoxton, London.
After taking a few years out at the end of the 90’s, Trooper returned to the dance floor in the new millennium and got involved with the Hard House scene. The hard beats and vibes reignited the fire in his rave heart, but something was
definitely missing until he discovered the underground London squat party Techno scene and from that point it was full steam ahead.
Keep your ear to the dance floor and listen out for Trooper’s unique energy and sounds at festivals and raves in the future including Freekuency in Portugal, No Mans Land and Boomtown plus a few others already booked for 2016! Let the good times roll.

On New Years Eve Acid909 were at Facebar. They joined forces with Yes Yes Y’all & Liquid Filth.

What is Acid909?

Acid909 is an Event created by Spliffy B. He noticed that event though there was a small techno scene, there was nothing regular. Spliffy Ended up creating a monthly event called Acid909 which have underground & International DJs alike at very good prices. It is hosted at Facebar, Reading.

Who are Yes Yes Y’all?

Yes Yes Y’all is Readings premier Hip Hop Event. This is the first NYE event they have embarked on. The resident DJs are Spliffy B & GG Angus. They always have guest rappers spitting on the mic.

Who are Liquid Filth?

This is another brainchild of Spliffy B. It was originally an event called Filth which was run by Spliffy down in Dorset. When he moved to Reading he noticed the whole drum n bass scene was jump up and sometimes oldskool jungle. He felt he wanted to do the sort of jungle he enjoyed which is Liquid & Darkcore. So he joined forces with MiNoR cOnFuSiOn, DJ Fiber, Slimz to bring back his event filth, under some deliberation they felt they’d call it liquid filth.

NYE in Reading
In the New years eve event Acid909 had Spliffy B repping, Liquid Filth had MiNoR cOnFuSiOn, and Yes Yes Y’all had GG Angus.

GG Angus decided he would go down a different route than normal to Yes Yes Y’all and play a stompy set of house. After this Spliffy B was on with Acid Techno, Gabba, Hard Tech & filthy drum n bass.

DJ Fiber came on for an out n out filthy set of Dubstep & Drum n bass in true Liquid Filth style, what Liquid Filth had created its renowned name around.

Spliffy B came back on after with a stormin set of oldskool Jungle, Acid Techno, Gabba, Hard Tech, Out n Out Filthy Drum n Bass and dirty breakcore.

This event was one of the busiest independent music events in Reading on New Years Eve.

The event finished at 4am with very satisfied Ravers 😉
