In celebration of officially becoming the unruly teenager it always wanted to be, The Gallery’s 15th Birthday represented the mother of all parties taking place at The Ministry Of Sound featuring a Stella lineup including headline performances from DJs Paul Oakenfold, Tall Paul, Seb Fontaine, Danny Rampling, Gavyn Mytchel and The Viceroy.

Starting life at their father’s club Turnmills, The Gallery was the brainchild of brothers ‘Tall’ Paul and Danny Newman.  As Danny explains:

‘We started with the idea of doing a few one-off parties, my Dad came up with the logo, Paul came up with the name and we did our first night at the end of April as it was my brother Paul’s Birthday. We didn’t go into it with the view to starting a weekly night it was more about showcasing the kind of music, producers, and DJs that we really liked.

With a UK-club tour, a special limited edition DVD plus a brand new mix album to celebrate this milestone achievement…LoopTV caught up with Paul Oakenfold, Seb Fontaine and Tall Paul to reminisce about the last 15years and to hail the beginning of the next!

The London based UK Beatbox champion and Youtube phenomenon tells us a little about his performance rig and his kit list he employs to create his unique musical, beatbox and comedy driven stage sets.

Through innovative use of looping tools he produces whole improvised DJ sets where the records are constructed live from his vocalisations.  Combining this musicality with his trademark leftfield comedy take on life has made watching Beardyman a ‘must see’ experience…

Previously he has impersonated Elvis, dressed as a monkey on stage at Bestival and once posed as an Austrian climate change lecturer, “Professor Bernhard Steinerhoff”, before breaking into his set…

Here we see him dueling on stage with Legendary MC Inja at the recent gig at the Junction in Cambridge.

DJ maestro Armin Van Buuren pipped Tiesto and David Guetta to this years winning post making it a hatrick for the Dutchman.  We chatted to him before the ceremony about his chances of winning, the secrets of his success and to find out what’s lined up in 2010 for the man at the top.

Armin later admitted he was stunned by the prize: “This was the least expected one. I expected David Guetta to win. I can understand that people might think if you win it for the third time it’s not that special… but for me it’s the most special.  To make it a third time is just massive.”

We also caught up and interviewed 10th position Techno and Trance DJ, Sander Van Doorn, who has been squirreling away in his studio for the past few weeks working on a host of new material…along with 19th position progressive electronica duo Cosmic Gate, together with Beta Recordings own Drum and Bass and electro star John B, plus many others from Top 100 DJs around the world!
