LB's in Melbourne is undoubtedly one of the most impressive venues I've had the opportunity to play at recently.

The venue features an all-vinyl bar with a high-quality Martin Audio system and a Condesa Rotary mixer, all set within a thoughtfully designed space.

Visitors to Melbourne should definitely stop by and experience the venue for themselves, especially to enjoy their remarkable cocktails and yours truly on the Decks ❤️

The original pressing of this album contained the Original mix of "Rock With You" which omitted the Hand clap and Finger snapping.

However, when the song was selected for release as a single the remixed version (with the Hand clap & Finger snapping), replaced the older version in all subsequent releases.

The album "Off The Wall" by was produced by the Great R.I.P ❤️

You can catch a few gigs this February in Sri Lanka!
Arlen de Silva

Absolute legend!

I first met Arlen around 1991, so much knowledge, so easy going and such a fu**in' awesome DJ. I'm yet to hear anyone who can read a room and make them dance the way he does!! Most of what I learned as a DJ, is from this guy!

For those living in Sri Lanka, Arlen will be in the south, from February 4th to 13th. He will be playing a few nights during this period!!

Try and catch him at a gig, if you're around..
