Gene Farris @ Deep End, Snafu, 23 Aug

Aberdeen’s leading house night has managed to attract another top quality guest in the form of Chicago House legend Gene Farris. Since the age of twelve, this producer has been developing his mixing skills, which began with making tapes for friends full of mashed up funk, soul and 80s pop. He was quickly signed to Cajmere’s Relief Records and from there began a prolific career, which has seen various singles, mix compilations, and the development of his own record label. Farris Wheel Recordings is not only focused on fresh, organic house, but also operates the well-established club night Playground in Amsterdam. Farris’ minimal, fluid style, coupled with those early influences, is sure to sit comfortably with the residents Funky Transport’s disco-house leanings, making this one Deep End that’s worth diving into.
