Although only a mere two months old the refreshing lagoon of escapism, ColorTv, goes from strength to strength against all odds. Still dazed and confused from the dance floor shenanigans governed by the boy, who doesn’t know when to say when, Arveene, the guys are straight back with an equally hedonistic fracas courtesy of the renowned 110th Street Djs.

Friday 14th August heralds the return to Dublin of the illustrious two-some with nothing less than a DISCO punch to the gut, and it’s been way too long a wait many would say. 110th Street’s Cian Ó Cíobháin and Cyril Briscoe, two names notorious in the annals of Irelands dance floors, have sentenced the ColorTv faithful to an exclusive 4-hour set and no doubt will have a lot to say after a near two year absence from the city.
The guys have recently been rejuvenating the waves they’ve made in Galway since their inception way back in 1998 with a few highly anticipated parties on Eglinton Street’s Deeper Venue, and by all accounts have been as jacking as ever. Sweetly blending soul, jazz, funk, rock, house, tech house, techno, electro and whatever else the hell they want, 110th Street solemnly shut any debate whether Djs can double as talented musicians.
To pardon a cliché, but if Djs were ever responsible for defining an era for eclectic styled djing in this country, 110th Street most certainly did that.
“During the GPO years (2002-2004) - '110th Street' pushed the electro-house sound before any club in Ireland did, bringing Erol Alan over for his début Irish gig as well as other like-minds, including 2ManyDJs & The Glimmers”
“Cyril and Cian use the name SiSi for their studio productions. They have re-edited and remixed tracks by Vitalic, Radioslave, Justice V Simian, The Japanese Popstars, In Flagranti, Bunny Lake, Underworld, Doves, Mylo, Martin Hornveth, Captain Comatose & Riton. They also have a gaggle of mix tapes which have proven very popular with party bitches around the globe”
Those in the know may have told you about these guys, and about how good they actually are, but not until you enter their dance floor realm, a formidable zone of random yet perfectly gelled sounds, will you realise for yourself that Sisi rule the disco, in no uncertain terms.
