Progression presents Fridays in Session…

On Feb 11th, Progression launches 'Fridays in Session' at Cabaret Voltaire. Focused on a more intimate vibe, this opens the next chapter for Progression, giving scope to a whole new package of guests and an array of tomorrow's DJ talent. Running as a series of nights, 'Fridays in Session' is set to inject the Progression vibe into a Friday night, the type of vibe which Edinburgh has sadly lacked for quite some time. We've chosen Cabaret Voltaire to host these parties and it really is the perfect venue for our plans. The Cab is one of Edinburgh best venues, boasting Edinburgh's historic architecture, low ceilings and the most intimate of surroundings, not to mention a newly
installed sound and lighting system.

Showcasing house music on a whole over 2 rooms, 'Fridays in Session' shall be presenting the usual high standard, calibre of guests that Progression is renowned for, but with an emphasis on also pushing up and coming DJs, cutting edge producers and label/album tours. The first night leads by example with French DJ/Producer, David Guetta, making his first ever Edinburgh appearance,
along side young rising star Denney (more information to follow).

With a commitment and focus on pushing Scotland's up and coming DJ talent, 'Fridays in Session' shall be offering 1 DJ slot per month……. be it room1 or room2. Progression is focused on house music as a whole, with 2 rooms giving scope for what we do. So we're looking for all kinds of styles…

Mixes must be a minimum of 60mins and can be submitted on CD (with track separation) to: Progression, P.O. BOX 28519. Edinburgh, EH4 1WU. Submissions must include a track listing and a description of the mix with reasons for choice of tracks. Please note, entrants must not reside at any other established club night. Winners shall be announced on the Progression website,
with a feature and the winning mix being made available for download.

The launch night of 'Fridays in Session' showcases the Edinburgh debut for French DJ, David Guetta. This French legend is serious hot property, his soon to be released album, 'GUETTA BLASTER', is due out on Feb 2005 and his latest single, 'THE WORLD IS MINE' is currently number 1 in the buzz charts, an accolade that says it all! Most certainly man of the moment… In support are your ever quality residents Alan Dobson and Gav Grant joined by Middlesbrough based DJ and Mixmag future Hero, Denney, which reflects our policy of pushing future talent. Denney, chosen by Mixmag as a futur
hero in 2004, sent us a mix CD late last year; so impressed that we were, we had to get him on board, think funk-tech with a twist, think San Francisco……!! Alongside this mouth watering line-up, we will have the first chosen bedroom DJ from the ongoing future talent quest, so get those mixes done, it could be you! There's no closing date, it's an ongoing process,
and we're looking for tomorrow's talent today.

Worldwide DJs of the moment, future heroes, along side the odd Progression favourite thrown
in for good measure……..
