Known for underground techno, tech house and minimal residents Mogs and Tomas Rubeck will be performing in their Equals2 guise. Equals2 is a LIVE experience involving a whole armoury of technology.

BUNKA

Bunka was born over 2 years ago out of a need for a fresh underground house and techno night in Birmingham. With humble beginnings at the Bull’s Head in Moseley and a no bullshit, back-to-basics policy it has developed into a force to be reckoned with on the local party scene. Its roster of guests and resident DJs relies on home grown talent from in and around the midlands who know their music.

COG

Cog is one of Birmingham’s most exciting and fastest evolving, underground nights. A unique mix of underground house and techno that encompasses all that is innovative. Cog has been growing for over two years now, originally a monthly night at Rooty’s at the Custard Factory now based at the renowned Hare and Hounds in Kings Heath where it continues to grow.

After a hugely successful 2009 in which they joined forces to bring quality DJs such as Billy Nasty and Rolando to Birmingham, Bunka & Cog head into 2010 with a fresh outlook and a number of bigger parties in the pipeline with some exclusive guests and a new concept for Birmingham with… the TYPE Series … Watch this Space!

DUSTY KID

Joining Deuce, Bunka and Cog in the Factory Club and performing LIVE will be Italy’s Dusty Kid. Dusty Kid provided Radio One’s essential mix on Saturday 24th October. It was a sublime 2 hours of melodic, psychedelic techno and considered by many to be one of the best essential mixes of all time! Dusty Kid the producer is also making big waves in the download charts with his album ‘A Raver’s Diary’ showcasing his knack for creating electronic sounds that you will have never heard before.

EARLY DOORS

Early Doors is one of the freshest Drum & Bass nights in Birmingham and has its origins in the old skool ethics once found at midlands clubs such as Quest and The Edge. This ethos has helped the creators, Subdiue and Initial, receive support from all corners of the West Midlands during the past 12 months from liquid to jump up creating an event that focuses on no agenda other than the love of music. With over 15 years experience in the scene, Subdue & Initial are once again capitalising on the wealth of midlands talent bringing you the mighty Benny & Aries plus owner of Class A recordings CKB.

The Big Custard Factory New Years Eve Festival 2009 / 2010

We have been absolutely blown away by the response for this with pre-ticket sales out stripping previous New Years Eve events at The Custard Factory by a long shot.

On two occasions we have been forced to release extra early bird tickets to cope with demand. At just £15 this ticket is clearly the hottest property in Birmingham if not the UK this New Years Eve. With the likes of Stupid Underground, Bigger Than Barry, Atomic-Jam and Breakthru all involved where else would you rather be?

So have you got your ticket yet? If not, this is a final heads up to say that the £15 tickets will go off sale on Saturday night (Boxing Day). After that you will pay the still bargain price of £20 (£25 VIP).

To get hold of one of the last few £15 tickets go to the following link > >

http://www.theticketsellers.co.uk/buy_tickets/events/?id=10009132

By Sunday 27th you WILL have to pay £20. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.

See 3000 of you on the 31st and have a great Christmas.

STUPID UNDERGROUND = packed parties! These parties have established themselves as pretty mental affairs at the Custard Factory. Between January 2007 and September 2009 they proceeded to sell out to complete capacity 11 of their events at The Custard Factory gaining a reputation for showcasing the highest profile DJs in the business, often with 5 rooms of different music without charging the earth to get in.

ATOMIC-JAM is one of biggest, longest running and most popular techno nights in the UK, now in its 14th year and still pushing boundaries like they have just begun. A reputation for great music, credible guests, stunning production, a brilliant and loyal following, they take a break from their iconic nights at The Q Club to take over the second marquee as part of our NYE celebrations.

BREAKTHRU is the Midlands premier Drum and Bass night. Breakthru is renowned for its friendly atmosphere and pioneering mix of big name DJs with cutting edge artists. The proud home to the genre’s biggest label nights such as Goldie’s Metal Headz, Marcus Intallex and Calibre’s Soulution, Hospitatlity with High Contrast and of course the mighty Valve Sound System which transforms the venue’s lakeside marquee into a unique event of truly epic proportions.

BIGGER THAN BARRY is the fattest rave in Brum Town that even ya nan doesn’t want to miss. The fatman plays a mash up between Dubstep / Fidget / Garage / 2 Step and anythin’ with a heavy bass. He has played host to such superstar DJs as Fake Blood, Diplo, Annie Mac, New Jack City, Rusko & Jack Beats to name just a select few. Bring your dancing shoes…

EARDRUM is Birmingham’ most established Dubstep event and has seen the debut of the likes of Skream, Benga, NType, Martyn, Geiom, Hatcha, TRG and Appleblim.

BRUM – The Midlands Biggest Weekly Electro / Dubstep Student Night is an authentic taste of Birmingham, bringing you the Midlands’ best up and coming DJs and live acts, as well as some heavy hitters from across the UK, providing you with the filthiest mash up of music the UK has to offer. Every Wednesday at The Custard Factory
