FRIDAY, MARCH 15, 2002: U.K. HARD HOUSE TAKEOVER!
Admission: $12 before 11 p.m. | $15 after 11 p.m.
If you’re into harder dance sounds, then it is imperative that you make your voice heard tonight. We’ve received many of your requests for more U.K. Hard House and techno DJ’s at Buzz, and one of our New Year’s resolutions of 2002 was to broaden this sound’s range here in DC. You may have noticed added diversity to our recent lineups. So drag out your friends who dig this sound, get the word out online and represent fully tonight, to show that tougher beats belong in the main room at Buzz too! This night will mark the first time with an entire main room lineup comprised of UK Hard House DJ’s. These DJ’s are 200% confirmed — all visas are in order, and we’re working with different agencies this time.

Vinylgroover first started DJ'ing in 1992 at the age of 15, and by 1994 he was headlining events such as Tribal Gathering, Universe and World Dance, playing in front of tens of thousands every week at only 17 years of age. He held residencies at Dreamscape, Helter Skelter and Fusion to name but a few, there was also bookings with the likes of Carl Cox at massive clubs such as Kinetic, The Manor, Rhythm Station, Hard Dock, The Eclypse and Pandemonium. As the 90’s progressed, the music coming from the likes of Tidy Trax, Tinrib and the formation of the Nukleuz label seemed to lead the way for a tough, underground house style which grabbed his attention right away. In the U.K he can be found spinning at the massive Bowlers complex in Manchester, Submaniac at Imperial Gardens, Amedaus in Kent, Lakota and G.B.H. in Bristol and Bath, as well as some forthcoming Nukleuz one-off events.
