Lot49 Album Launch tour

(leecoombs.co.uk, myspace.com/leecoombs, lot49.co.uk)

Coombs kick-started his DJing career in the late 80s, producing his first track under the guise of The Invisible Men. By ‘91 he went on to found Paradise Records, Pumpin’ Vinyl and the cult electro Zoid and Thrust series before moving to London where a chance meeting with Finger Lickin’ label boss, Justin Rushmore, led to Lee being taken into the fold, his acid-angled productions giving him a float all of his own. His DJ sets, which often see him down at Fabric and Bugged Out! or flying over to New York’s Vinyl and LA’s Spundae club, reflect his musical milieu with influences colliding from all directions.

LEE COOMBS BIOGRAPHY:
Bending boundaries and ignoring the status quo – where would the Breakbeat scene be today without Lee Coombs. For over a decade this British producer has been at the forefront of it all; releasing groundbreaking mix CDs, remixing the world’s most acclaimed artists and knocking out dancefloor destroying productions that are considered classics years after their release. A seasoned veteran, Coombs first hit the DJ slopes in 1989, bathing himself in the acid house scene at parties around London and Cambridge. Crucial in shaping his all-encompassing approach to DJing and production, this boundary-less approach would become Coombs’ trademark, mixing up breaks, house, electro, techno and acid with dexterous assurance.

TIM HEALEY BIOGRAPHY:
Tim is a purveyor of super-trash electro to the needy and sleazy dance-floors of the world. One of the hardest working men in dance, he DJs every weekend and produces during the week. Content to work solo, Tim is a member of THE DEATH KIT, he has also been known to execute tunes with Pete Martin, under the name COBURN. A Tim Healey DJ set effortlessly fuses the best in alternative house with indie-remixes, bootlegs and tough fidget-electro sounds: punk rock gets the funk and skewed pop gets a club over-hall all in the name of damn-fine dance music. Tim started DJing at 16, ran his first club at 18 and began taking international bookings 3 years later. In the last year Tim has delivered his explosive DJ set to events across Europe, USA (incl. Burning Man), South America and Asia. In 2007, Tim launched his “Tim Healey presents” stage in Brazil, where he presented his own brand of electro/breaks (with guests The Egg, Tomcraft and Atomic Hooligan) and toured the country, playing to crowds of 10,000 in Rio, Sao Paolo and Porto Allegre.This year Tim has continued to tour his strong territories aswell as new ones, and is confirmed to headline The Opulent Temple stage at 2008’s Burning Man festival this August.

SYD GRIS BIOGRAPHY:
Dr. Syd Gris. A renaissance man of the SF dance music community, Syd was recently again voted one of the top 10 djs in San Francisco. He is the founder and leader of the Opulent Temple, one of the premiere sound stages at the Burning Man festival, as well as one of the organizers of the San Francisco LoveFest, (formerly Loveparade San Francisco). He heads up his own production company in San Francisco under the name Opel Productions, with a mission to throw ‘conscious parties with purpose’. His musical tastes and dj talents are as diverse as his interests, being able to move in a number of worlds like few in the SF dance music scene.
