...where's he gone? :?:
Does he still DJ? Does he still produce? Does he still run Tortured Records? :eh:
he does on all counts
he sure does
I've not seen his name on a flyer for years. What sort of evens has he played at recently? Same goes with the tunes, what was the last track / EP he released? Info me up!
he played Voodoo about a month ago, only one of the biggest techno nights in the uk! :lol:
he's never put much out in terms of releases and i have no idea of his last ep, and as far as im away he's never put an ep out under his own name so a search would come back fruitless, altho he's released stuff under the name "Kamaflarge", did an ep years back called Diskotamination that was fairly popular
maybe check his websites or the Tortured sites for details ;)
Cool! Thanks for the info. I'll search around the net. Must have missed the flyers for that Voodoo... :oops: :lol:
he regularly visits Croatia couple times a year, I think there isnt one bigger club around here he didnt played at ;)
He did an electro set for sequence in manchester as well not so long ago.
He plays here pretty often...
only on real big commercial parties tho...
hes a legend, been rocking techno since the start
He's on the line up for fabric.......

Billy Nasty is a wicked DJ... seem him a few times now, we even went to slinky when they booked him just to see him, then we basically ****ed off after his set!!
I dont think he's played in the South West since then and that was a year or 2 ago... Shame
He's done lots of remixes under his own name, although, as you say, he hasn't had any releases under his 'real' name.Quote:

I'm pretty sure it was Billy Nasty under another guise who did the well banging mix of double flash off the 2nd leftfield album. Cant remember the name he used, but I think it had the word "brown" in it.
Billy Nasty & Richard Brown.Quote:

Some of the stuff he did as Shi-Take on Zoom was great, in fact I think it was the slightly trancier period of his productions that I liked the most, always very well crafted tunes.
Being a DJ first and foremost though, I think producing came a little bit down in his list of priorities. Tortured had a great run for the first number of years, and fair play to him for doing Electrix too..
