As we move ourselves into summer we were thinking… It must be time to get on board and float ourselves through the river city. Who better to take us there than John Gomez and Nick The Record! From the moment we set sail to arriving back to the dock, Nick and John will be soundtracking your whole afternoon. What a time to be alive!

Both Nick and John run the ‘Tangent’ dance parties that are known for supplying the finest disco, boogie, house and sun-kissed tropical rarities in an all night affair in London’s Pickle Factory. This boat party is our version of this brainchild of these two great diggers.

John Gomez is one hell of a musical encyclopaedia. He is admired by those in the know for his deep musical knowledge and passion for collecting and sharing his musical finds. He delivers beautiful versatility with a bag of wax that is dance ready and guaranteed to take you on a musical journey. You may have previously heard his voice over the airwaves on Rush Hour’s NTS Radio show or ‘The Spaces Between’ or most recently his current show ‘Soup To Nuts’ where he shares music from different time and different places. John's close affiliation with esteemed tastemakers and institutions such as Music From Memory, Invisible City and Rush Hour, is further proof of his deep know how and immaculate taste on all things music. John has played parties as diverse as Sofrito, Morning Fever, Secret Sundaze and festival appearances all over the globe.

Nick the Record has been DJing, releasing the occasional record and selling rare disco and soul records to the stars for over 25 years. He has spent much of his DJ career playing in Japan but in recent years he has been sharing his music far more globally. He has been playing some of the best parties and festivals all through Europe with sets at Kala, Love International, Meadows In The Mountains, Dekmantel Selectors, Houghton & Southern Soul and gained huge recognition for his Boilerroom set for The Final Night in Paradise party at Village Underground which was part of a tribute night to Larry Levan & The Paradise Garage. Nick got his first taste of London nightlife going to Hip Hop Jams in the eighties & then onto the Rare Groove scene & was around for the summer of love in 1988 when House exploded in the South. In the early 90’s Nick started to play at lots of underground parties in the thriving warehouse party scene in London and also during the summer at many outside “Free Parties” and music festivals as well as guesting at DJ Harvey’s legendary MOIST club and being one of the resident DJs at QUIRKY at the Vox. Nick currently runs a label called Record Mission with Dan Tyler from The Idjut Boys to release their edits. The pair also scored an underground hit with a rework of Robot Jam for the Emotional Rescue label. Other releases include a compilation for Dave Lee’s Z label entitled Under The Influence. Prior to that he curated 2 volumes of Disco Juice for Counterpoint records and has also released original material on Nuphonic, Ene & 20/20 Vision labels.
