★ROCKWELL - Shogun Audio.
1 of Mixmags ‘Players of the year 2010’ Rockwell has had major releases on Digital Soundboy, Renegade Hardware, Critical and Darkestral. His production is known for its attention to detail; painstakingly well-constructed and thoughtful mastering which has seen him win ‘Single of the Month’ awards numerous times in succession for every solo record released! With his debut album coming out soon this year you need to watch this space!!!

★Hatesy - Leefest.
His mixing will have to be seen to be believed! It sounds like one long tune... That’s how smooth and seemless it is! He will have you bopping like a caffeine junkie on a pogo stick! Not to mention he runs an award winning LONDON festival called LEEFEST!!!

★VHYes (Full AV Set) - Medlo/BFTV.
Coming back for a second time on bigger & better screens! These guys tear up Bang Face TV every year at the weekender and now they’re tearing up ALANs place! If you like visuals and laughing then you’ll LOVE these guys!!!

★SinPAL (Full AV Set) - ALAN.
These 2 consist of a DJ and a VJ so naturally putting both talents together creates something exciting that we call our in house visual Act. This will be only their second ever club set so show some support and prepare to be awe-inspired!

★LINUS ft Danny C - Bassment/Resonance.
Every month Reading gets teared a new one from these 2 who are the forefront of the Berkshire DnB and Dubstep scene! Infact Berkshire wouldn’t have a DnB and Dubstep if it wasn’t for these 2!!! We got a 3 deck set last time so what insanity will they have this time?? Resonance has now moved to Brighton AND been invited to Outlook festival this year! IT’S GETTING BIG!!!

Not to mention... (you should all know this by now)...
★ANYTHING GOES FOR FANCY DRESS AS AN ALAN STANDARD!!! SO GO MAD!!! We will have another impromptu fancy dress competition in the garden for free entry for our yearly spectacle ALAWEEN!!!
★The RENOWNED ALAN Vibes! You have all experienced the Alan Vibe!!! If you havent then get your tickets and get to our 2nd birthday bash because the Alan vibes will be on fine form celebrating 2 years of love and peace and amazing raves'
★HANDBAKED ARCADE will yet again be showcasing everything from the retro gaming years of our youth... We’ve got a SNES, NES, Master System and an Emulator with over a 1000 games on it all with their own sofa’s and TVs so you can sit back and enjoy the SERIOUS NOSTALGIC GAMING!
★GLOWSTICKS, FACE & BODY PAINTING FOR CHARITY! This is our way of giving back to others whilst we have fun... The chosen charity this time is again KUA because these guys come down all the way from Brighton to do your face paints and we feel so strongly about the cause that we just want to help them more! So pitch in, get your face painted, buy some tasty sweeties or even try your luck at lucky dip and help others while having to much fun! We’ve worked together for nearly 2 years now and they’ve always been helping out at like minded events and festivals! We wanted to support KUA at another one of our events not only because they can turn your face into a 16th chapelesque work of art but also because they raise money to help children who are in dire need of aid!

★TEA AND HOT FOOD ON SITE!!! Hidden have just renovated the food area - So if dancing all night, sweating and losing weight isn’t your thing then munch your face off after some bevvies instead!
★LIVE SET RECORDINGS FROM NOISEMONSTER.FM... Right, these guys do a sterling job at coming to our events and recording our rooms for us but we’ve been a bit behind on this because we have to sift through such large amount of high quality files (over 9 hours of music in each room so times each recording by 3) hence why we haven’t got anything up just yet! But we DO have every recording and once we have a new website up we will get these on there!
★FULLY THEMED AND HANDMADE DECOR... Weeks before the event our very talented ALANs are working hard on making fun, colourful and interactive decor... We decorate to make you raving experience SENSATIONAL... we cannot wait to show you what magical masterpieces we have in store for you at our 2nd Birthday party! Happy Fooking Birthday Alan!
★DRINKS PROMOS!!! This day and age drinks are a small fortune! Especially in London clubs!!! So we’ve managed to negotiate £3.50 on Fosters cans ALL NIGHT!!! Which brings it reasonably close to normality!

IMPORTANT MESSAGE:
The decor team would like to pass across the message 'leave the decor be' as we want to keep creating these fun filled fantasy worlds for you lovely Alans but our budget only allows us to do so much so the decor needs to not be touched and left to be beautiful for everyone’s enjoyment please! So if you see any one walking around at an Alan rave with decor please politely tell them leave it be and let an Alan know either at Front of House or the Stall in the garden and we will politely barter with them, maybe bribing them with sweeties as this seems to be a winner.
so to put it simply... We can’t afford to keep replacing the decor because it gets wrecked or ruined so please bear this in mind as we’re trying to create something special for you after all.
go get your party hats!
Love the ALAN Crew
