MATHEMATICS (NYC)
On tour in Europe right now, Mathematics completely smashed it down at Swerve earlier this month, with his own track �Fire� getting the massive rewind at the end of the night by Fabio himself. He�ll be out here until May 15 so any last minute inquiries are welcome.
No wonder, as unlike the many producers with mediocre dj skills, James is a true drum�n�bass dj with 13 years experience, who delivers a tight mixed and versatile dj set in its true sense, rather than just a showcase of his latest works.
Mathematics and their label Social Studies offer yet another deadly collaboration with Hungarian super collective, Tactile: �Chonga� b/w �Vibra Theme� in shops now. Social Studies sostud008 is on promo soon : Mathematics:: Fools gold / Qur'an. Other projects include a vocal project with NYC R+B street minister Peter Hadar and also due out soon is a 12� by Mathematics on DJ Hype�s new �Liq-weed Ganja� label. So watch this space!

Storm�s excellent �Winter of Content� mix cd is out now on Metalheadz. Storm has been touring heavily of late, with international gigs almost every weekend and UK ones to fill the gaps� plans for the coming months include a tour of Asia in May with gigs in Japan, Taiwan, Thailand and Singapore, followed by additional trips to Australia and New Zealand later this year. Storm is also in preparation for the launch of her new radio show with Red Bull Music Academy. This monthly 2 hour show will be sure to offer the most upfront drum�n�bass in the scene, with general chat with Storm and MC Rage and also a mixed section as well. Originally approached to highlight her favourite DJ�s, Storm will be presenting classic mixes from DJ Kemistry�s live sets from the Blue Note era And further back in the day. So don�t miss it!
