❖ - T.D.U.K PRESENTS – MICHAEL WOODS & FRIENDS - ❖
SATURDAY JULY 2ND 2011
BANKS, MAIDSTONE – KENT
☼ DOORS OPEN 5PM☽
You’ve seen the videos, you’ve heard the rumors and yes, it’s all true..!
We’ve been away for a little while working on a number of events to bring you and there’s no better way to kick off our Summer parties with something quite special, a 1st for Kent with a debut performance.
Once again we lock horns with the UK’s biggest Weekly party team ‘The Gallery @ Ministry Of Sound’ for a succulent slice of sonic splendour.
We are taking over the legendary BANKS TERRACE in Maidstone for a nine hour session of some of the most uplifting and cutting edge dance Music around. Banks has been made famous by the Brilliant OFF-KEY team that have delivered some of the best parties to ever have hit Maidstone..! This party will be a little special in comparison to what we’ve done before, outdoors and stating early to take full advantage of the Summer Vibe!
Included on the day will be an outdoor bar, bar-b-que, cocktail bar for those tequila sunrises, screwdrivers and err, sex on the beach. Whatever your tipple, we’ll have it covered.

The Patter...
There are very few DJ’s & Producers that can boast the achievements of our headliner, hailed by the likes of Tiesto and Deadmau5 as THE inform man at the moment, with a production and remix catalogue that boasts some of the biggest tunes of the last few years, there’s no one else that we could think of that could sum up our intentions better than the mighty MICHAEL WOODS!
One of the most in-demand stars of the global dance music scene, ability, originality and accomplishment. In Michael Woods' short career he has managed to touch on every cornerstone, leaving proof of his musical competence at producing big room, progressive and tech-house tracks, along with a discernible motivation to better the quality of music being distributed. This has not gone unnoticed with DJs like Pete Tong consistently throwing props his way.
Michael Woods’s productions carry a deep, driving and delectable collection of electronic sounds, with melodious, cascading synths and hands-in-the-air rush-inducing drops. This is what Michael Woods is renowned for, and has created an individual sound that he is pioneering, making him a stunning example of an artist that flows with, as well as initiates, music’s changes.
Collaborations with the likes of Chris Lake, Funkagenda & Mark Knight conclude as featured tracks on various compilations and act as proof of his skilful production abilities. It’s alliances like these that excite the growing fan base, but are not the sole examples of his talent, as original tracks such as "Nitro", "Midnight Run", "Dynamik", “No Access” and "First Aid" are continually supported.
In addition, mainstream artists such as Kylie, Lady Ga Ga, Estelle, The Ting Tings, The Temper Trap, P Diddy and Ginuwine ft Timbaland & Missy Elliot have all borrowed his insatiable remixing skills, leaving his studio rarely empty. His ability to rework music with an exceptionally sharp ear for quality production has left him in high regard with many artists and labels across the industry, leading to a nomination for ‘Best Remixer’ at this year’s 2011 IDMA's (International Dance Music Awards).
Adding to this we see a welcome return to our good friend and genuinely lovely chap Paul Thomas.
Paul, like Michael has had an amazing year, most recently with his Toolroom release ‘Ultraviolet’ topping the Beatport chart and now his remix of Gareth Emery’s Sanctuary causing a major stir on dancefloors around the world. A 100% proven; talented DJ & Producer that can control a dancefloor as easy as a lawn mower.
If you’ve never had the pleasure of hearing Paul play then this is an absolute must, Paul has been DJ’ing since 1998 and earned his stripes at some of the early Sundissential parties and Stereo, where he was noticed by Bedrocks Steve Gerrard. However, it was not until 2003 that he had a massive breakthrough, being signed as Godskitchen’s resident to open their own flagship venue, Air. Since then, with the backing of the Godskitchen crew, his profile has risen enormously. A mammoth 6hr set NYE earned him a legion of fans and an official residency with the UK’s biggest club.
You can guarantee one thing, when Thomas drops, the dancefloor rocks!
Our Final Headliner makes his T.D.U.K Debut, Birmingham’s Russell G.
Not a name you may be familiar with but trust us, this boy is already mingling in the big league. Signed to Marco V’s ‘Incharge’ imprint and with a string of releases on Armada, 303 lovers, Whartone and Spinnin...
Not to mention his regular performances at Godskitchen and Global Gathering
His collaboration with Paul Thomas and Lissat & Voltaxx ‘The Real Life’ is one of last year’s highlights for us and his recent productions ‘The Gathering’ and most recently ‘Rush’ are Peaktime tingler’s.
Musically, this event is one of the best we’ve ever planned, if you like it big, if you like it loud then there’s only one place to be..!
On Support duty we welcome our bestest buddies FLH, you know the drill with these guys, great quality music, first class performances and a unique energy that leaves you with no other option but to smile... FLH have been our tag team partners since we started and we’re pleased and very proud to have them supporting us once again for what will potentially be one hell of a night to remember.
