Smalltown

smalltown returns with two of UK hottest electronic artists for their debut tour, Blawan & Pariah in the intimate surrounds of Liberty Social.

BLAWAN

Jamie Roberts aka Blawan, a hotly tipped producer from Sheffield who came out of nowhere last year with his debut release, Fram/Iddy, for game changers Hessle Audio. But for him it didn’t feel like that…one of the latest virtuosos to emerge from Britain. His hyper-percussive maxis for R & S received unanimous praise from the press and suddenly turned the alias for this Yorkshire acid head into the category of next big thing. He has already remixed for Radiohead and his song “Getting Me Down” was named Resident Advisor’s best single of 2011

PARIAH

Pariah is 22 year old producer Arthur Cayzer. Originally from Scotland, Arthur is now based in London where he studies at university. Having always been hugely passionate about music, at the beginning of 2009 he made his first steps into production and DJ'ing. 2010 saw the release of his debut 10" single "Detroit Falls/Orpheus" on the newly revitalised label, R&S, to which he is signed. That was followed up a few months later with a 6 track EP entitled "Safehouses". As of February 2011, Arthur has a number of releases planned for the year, including a collaborative EP with a fellow producer. He has also begun work on his debut album which will come out at some point on R&S in the not too distant future."
