Full line-up small area hosted by Dub Infusions/Planet KL: R Funk, Swindle, Presk, Astroposer, Elijah&Skilliam

First up the godfather of Oi!, Dj Gomes himself. This man knows what turns on a crowd and his parties have been growing in popularity these past years to become a sell-out nearly every time. Watch out for his own productions as well, with some releases coming up at Oi! Recordings together with Dion47.

Don't hestitate to skip the next video to 01:27 to see the wildest dubstep pit you've probably ever seen. The Dutch are a bit mental... (please don't take their example) And Kutz provided them with the right tunes to go loose. The man probably played crowdwise the best tune selection of the evening.

Oi! / Kutz

In between some time for Elijah&Skilliam, the Butterz duo, playing a wide selection of grime, funky and dubstep in the small area hosted by Planet KL. These guys have an ear for hot tunes and upcoming producers in the grime scene. Follow their adventures over here

Next up Joker. A very talented young producer he is and he played a very versatile set. Some people had difficulty getting into his flow as it was so different from the bangers played by Kutz, but it was inspiring nevertheless.

Last man I got to watch this eve was Hatcha. He was a last minute booking as Rusko got stuck at the airport, but didn't need any introduction himself of course. The crowd build up their crescendo of enthusiasm, to explode at Datsik's set which I unfortunately had to miss due to some sleep issues for a flight to DMZ the next day (oh boy...)
