I'd like to open this update with a very special thanks to all of
you who made the FINLEY QUAYE show last friday night the second
sold out show in our MILES A HEAD series. Keep your eyes and ears
open for our November show announcement.
As the seasons change from summer to fall and the temperature begins
to drop we have taken it upon ourselves to keep things hot, here's
the run down of what's coming up.
***THURSDAY OCTOBER 23RD*****************************************
-DEEP CONCENTRATION-
In the last 10 years the DJ has evolved from mobile juke box
to a creating force for new styles of music. Giant Step is proud
to announce The Deep Concentration Night, a party to display the
talents of some of the strongest rising turntablists. The night
features turntablists from the OM Records -Deep Concentration
