Save the Settler (namely Bob) @ Rockafellas - 30th Aug 2011

Well ya boy started off proceedings by getting lads from his work together and having a cheeky Thursday at our fave weekly night in the Midlands the one and only Sno where we were put on to play via matey Andy Bell (SmakPony)as a last minute thing. Transpired to be a decent set, decent crowd and as always decent neet had by all, which then set us up for what happened next……….. 



Bit of background here:- After smashing up a Save The Pony gig at what can only be described as back of a social club back in May, our man Twon Mendiloco was obviously impressed with what he heard/saw and from there decided (good or bad, only time will tell) to invite us for a second sitting which resulted in us supporting the one and only Russ Yallop (who I have to give kudos to after the session on Sat, ‘safe pal’) at a Save The Pony Gig on Friday @ Rockafellas, Leicester



DS rocks up there fashionably late (in standard attire, Orange Stars everywhere) about 10 mins before the Gig, but plenty of practice had made perfecto (as if) we still managed to play our RAW HOUSE sound and please a crowd (if only we could please our Boobies hey?) before Russ took over and stormed it culminating in, and im not gonna lie to ya, an EPIC NIGHT all round with the after session being just as good!

ps Don’t forget we are playing this Sat at FACE & Cream Ibiza Classics - STREET CARNIVAL BIRMINGHAM on 1-2.30 in the Garden


Blatantly support us and as always we much appreciate, DUTCH LOVE xxx

ITS FREE ENTRY!


Next stop we have an extended set in Birmingham for FACE @ the Rainbow, now for those of you that came to the FACE vs VIVA party back in May you will remember that it was the best event seen in Birmingham for a long time and there is the same excitement for this party on 6TH AUGUST, we are playing in the garden again which has that alluring summer vibe and more importantly a  booming  funktion 1 sound system.  We WILL absolutely smash the place to pieces again i promise, definatly shouldn't be missed, also the lineup really is something else i know that the FACE team has put so much time effort and money into making this the party of the summer so DO NOT MISS THIS.... let me do some name dropping, the lineup to name but a few consists of JAMIE JONES, DEREK CARTER, EDU IMBERNON, TIM GREEN, SCOTT BLEEPZ, ELLIOT CROFT, JEREMY HEALY, TALL PAUL BRANDON BLOCK SHORTERZ AND FRIENDS, ELECTRONIQUE DJS AND WWJD DJS...... wowza  thats  world class!.......

                               We are extremely moist about this event, not only are we teaming up with our closest DJ allies SMAK PONY  we are also playing at what we think is undoubtedly THE best club in the midlands, we played there for the first time last month and we were blown away, recently refurbished it is now home to the  sickest soundsystem we have played on ( a ridiculous Funktion 1) and state of the art lighting...you almost feel  as if your in berlin or detroit! you gotta see it to believe it and when we are tearing the place apart with SMAK PONY the roof will come off! other djs on the night are Obie Tryce, Rogan, HoH and Rio. The back room hosted by DJ Kuska and Mark Barrett... EXPECT ROLLING UNDERGROUND RAW HOUSE BEATS!

On a closing note i would like to give a massive shout out to everyone who has supported us and believed in us over the last year! we have played some amazing gigs and met some even more amazing people, its mad how things keep on snowballing and at risk of sounding like " not naming names" a cheesy 90's trance DJ... just like toilet paper were on a roll, also we are in talks with various people/labels about getting our material a release so stay tuned folks. We are also in talks with the global clothing brand RELIGION and a Dutch Settlers* limited edition T-shirt will be avaliable very soon! we take our music seriously but we also know how to F*****G party, no ego no attitude... SEE YOU ON THE DANCEFLOOR


 Love & Peace,

IBIZA VOYAGE JUNE 2011

This was our 2nd trip to the magic isle this year and my did it not disappoint. We set off on Friday night and arrived early Saturday morning to amazing weather and the calling sounds of the clubs. Saturday was all about Zoo project and the release of the animal. It was a packed out zoo with many crazy sights to behold. Massive respect to Johnny D who taught everyone a lesson that night in the seal pit. We sat and watched in awe. The bass lines we're crazy!


.......Sunday we popped into Sankeys after playing Manchester the previous week we thought we'd go and show our support. None other than Mr Todd Terry was playing and we was all pleasantly surprised to hear this legend in the mix. Big up Sankeys for a great sound system too........



 Monday as always was about DC10. Our favourite club on the island and to be fair in the world. With the Void Airmotion soundsystem, new soundproofed roof and new flooring it is a clubbers club which takes no prisoners. We was the first in there and the last to leave. Dubfire smashed the back doors off the place and if anyone was there to witness this they are probably still recovering now. What a night with all our friends we love you and we love DC10. Peace out and BE WELL x

DUTCH SETTLERS SMASH SANKEYS!

What a weekend! We had a call out of the blue asking if we could play Sankeys in manchester so we made the journey up on Saturday evening to play what can only be described as one of the best clubs in the UK. We teamed up with Smak Pony and a bus full of amazing party people to make the journey up there. We arrived at approximately 11pm after the crazy trip up on the disco bus. We played from 12 - 1 dropping some of our classics which went down a storm. The crowd was bubbling and the system was BIG. Smak Pony came on after us and basically ripped it up as they always do. An amazing evening had by all! Just want to say special thanks to Andy Bell and Ste Savage for arranging the trip, Ricky Hatton for making the trip to see us and everyone else who was involved. Will go down in history ;) x

DUTCH SETTLERS @ DC-10 CIRCO LOCO OPENING PARTY MAY 2011

What th!!!!!....We're back from what was an epic 15 hour marathon at the mecca that is Circo Loco @ DC-10. The day started with a huge thunder storm and heavy rain but that wasn't enough to put a dampener on the party.

For the dedicated followers that braved the weather, Clive Henry served up the first set of the day (and the season) in the garden....which set the scene for the rest of the day.....The garden steadily filled up with a perfect mix of Spanish, Italian and English seasoned clubbers gasping for their first taste of the NEXT LEVEL at Circo Loco. The next level is exactly what we got when Kerri Chandler took to the decks outside to ....by this time the garden was heaving and amass with a crowd only DC-10 could attract.

The SmaK Pony boys and Face resident Elliott Croft joined us in the garden just in time for Dyed Soundorom & Dan Ghenacia who got the first crowd sit down of the day and season which you can see here --->


From that point on everything went a bit double dutch.......Davide Squillace & Matthias Tanzmaan back to back in the garden and on the terrace provided the perfect combo of deep, melodic, tech house which is the defining sound of the summer already.....on that note...be prepared for 2 new fresh Ibizia inspired mixes coming very soon. Love you. BE WELL x

DUTCH SETTLERS IN GUINESS WORLD RECORD ATTEMPT FOR MACMILLAN CANCER FOUNDATION

We made the trip over to the Rescue Rooms/ Stealth Club over in Nottingham on thursday 12th May for a event  called All Hands On Decks. The idea was for a Guiness world record attempt of over 100 DJ's from all genres to have one mix each. It started off at 7pm with Deep house (When we all had our mix) at 120 bpm and went through all genres up to about 170bpm. The current record stood at 83 DJ's and it took over 6 hours to reach that mark. The evening just got better and better and there was a great vibe buzzing around the place. It was great to meet Dj's from all types of music who love what they do and all in the aid of Macmillan cancer foundation. Just want to give a massive shout out to all who organised this great event especially Ross westland, Dave thatcher, Eastern Fidget posse and sparkly shorts girl. Check out a small clip of the night via this link.....

Birmingham hasn't experienced such a party for a long time with an amazing crowd and rolling tunes,....everything was perfect! Just want to say a special thanks to the guys who arranged the party and all the guys at the Rainbow. Top night and hope to see something like this again very soon.
