\\one for the money, two for the show//

It that time again where we at the BC HQ knock our heads against the wall and try figure out a once off special event. Well, with a few bumps and bruises we came up with a very special concept for a one night show.
//
The idea is that we are paying some much need respect to some artists that stand out to us. The guys who may have not received the most votes, but the guys who truly know what they are doing in terms of music selection and production.
//
Its going to be a once off genre battle between the djs who will be representing their flavors within a time space of an hour and a half.
Line up as follows:

10:00|11:30 (BROKE GUY)
11:30|01:00 (VIBE NATION)
01:00|02:30 (KENNEDY)
02:30|CLOSE (PZIEZZO ELECTRIC)

Date: 19th November
Doors open at 9.
Half price drinks till 11.

\\Attention please, attention please//

Brick City has counted the votes and are proud to announce the winners.
//
In no particular order they are:

IDIOTEQUE
BLITZKRIEG

Well done lads!
//
We received a record number of votes. Just under 700 to be precise and due to rules and regulations of BC we had to unfortunately disqualify one artist who came in our top 3.
Reason being is that we can only by law accept and publish talent over the legal age of 18.
-
There will always be another Brick City competition, so to those who fall under the above, please be patient and keep pushing. Your time will come, if not today, then soon.
//
With that aside. We are itching for Saturday night!
//
Line up and set times are as follows:

10:00 - 11:30 - George Daniels
11:30 - 12:30 - Idotech
12:30 - 01:30 - Illtastic
01:30 - 02:30 - Blitzkriek
02:30 - 04:00 - Bruce Willis??

Venue: FICTION
-
Doors open at 10
-
R30 gets you in
-
See you there.

\\I did this all by myself... //

Its a good thing when you know guys from Jhb are hearing about BC and sending in material. We got this in the middle of the night. A bit different from everything else we have received, but I feel there is great potential here. What do you think?

\\This is how we do it...//

Is it just me or is this Cape Town weather really F%&#ed up?? New strains of flu are being recorded and sending people home early from work. Outdoor festivals are amazingly rad then totally not as the wind picks your tent up and blows it 2km down south to no mans land. Things are just beyond me at this point and I want answers.
//
Alas, there is the internet and talent that weather cannot change. These two things are very, very important to us at Brick City. The mixture of human skill and techno-lo-gy... making the ultimate human being appealing to young girls and boys on weekend at early hours of the morning. This is what we strive for. An never ending quest to fulfill the young hearts and souls of the dancefloor.
//
Let us know what you think of these two lads. They recently hit us up with some new cuts.
You know what to do.

\\and the winner is...//

After a month or so we have finally come to the end of the Brick City Black Edition auditions. With a record number of votes to date (270 + - ) we have great pleasure announcing our two finalists to our stage tomorrow night. But before we get to that, we must take a look to all who submitted work to our inbox over the past month and say thank you. There was also a neck and neck tie between two artists, but due to breach of rules, we are forced to choose only one as the other is off under age.
//
Tomorrow is an hour away and by the sounds of it, its going to be a banger.
So without any further ado, here are your two finalists...


DUBLUSION

DUBLUSION - 10 - 11 30

DAS KAPITAL - 11 30 - 12 30

EL GORDO - 12 30 - 1 30

TOTEM - 1 30 - 2 30

ALEX VICE - 2 30 - CLOSE

\\last of the last//

With only two days before announcing the winners to this weeks Brick City, we are still receiving mixtapes, production and millions of votes. Have to say this months BC is in a league of its own. We have not to date received such positive feedback as we have till now. We are twitching in the eye balls to how manic this coming Friday is gonna be. So before we blow some speakers, I'm leaving you with one last demo submitted a day ago.
//
Have a listen...
and if you like, you know what to do.

\\this one goes out to the east side//

Looking on the Brick City event page, there are a few votes cast towards one particular cat going by the name of 'Dublusion'. There is a mystery going around as to why there are a handful of votes towards him as some cant seem to find his work.
//
To clear this up, the demo was submitted on the FB page awhile ago. It is hidden under all the votes and is sitting at the back of the line. This is why we urge people to submit work to our email so situations like this can be avoided.
//
Well anyways, the hunt is over. Below is the demo submitted by the man himself.
Have a listen and let us know... or is it already a little late for that?

\\2 for the money 1 for the show//

Enjoy.

\\for the ladies//

What a weekend. Good lord. As a result, I'm currently vegging out in my bed trying to gather lost thoughts from the past few days. It all started on Friday and ended last night... late last night!
//
But, alas, there is light at the end of the tunnel and I cant be selfish enough to just talk about my mindless adventures of my late life, I have to pay respect, respect to all the ladies out there. Today is 'booby day' (as its politely put in my calendar) and this is my respectful shout out to all the lovely ladies of the word... Cheers B^$%#
//
As a person who always believes you cant rock up to a party with out a little something something, I present to you some fresh, cuts from some 'up and coming' lads.
Busy listening to them now and they are RAW!
//
Give them a listen and list your favorite. Im out of here.
