NUBOOGIE  
 


For the last 4 years, Sydney's original and most sought after DJ/MC combo has always been DJ Elroy and MC Losty. The pair met in the depths of Sydney's rave underground where they both started and found a friendship based on similar outside tastes in music. They built a solid reputation at Sydney's Sounds on Sunday @ the Greenwood Hotel, playing once a month and at all the large weekend events held there. The team expanded their reputation built at Sounds to hold a 3 year residency at Home Night Club every Friday night at Sublime in the Beat-Fix room. The pair are still rocking the room every week right up until this day. Next in line were coastal shows; with regular gigs at Bustin in Wollongong and Block Rocking Beats in Kiama.

They were then asked to play at Sydney's popular night club; Kink @ Arthouse. Elroy and Losty have had steady bookings there for over a year now in the breaks room, Broke n beats. Being one of the highlights of the room, the pair landed themselves a residency at Matt Hirds (Broke n Beats room promoter) long weekend event Dirty House Sessions. After impressing so many, Matt also now books the pair every year for all his events at the NSW snow fields: Off the rails and this year they supported breaks act SLYDE (Fingerlickin Records).

Every year, Elroy and Losty are also asked to head line the MTV rail comp after parties, the Juice events and play at Jax Night Club at the snow fields of NSW, making them a yearly holiday attraction for punters while at the snow. Last year, they also made their first appearances in Melbourne playing at The Lounge. The duo impressed promoter Ben Shepard so much that he later booked them to support USA breaks legends the Crystal Method. Back up in Sydney again and the UK promoters of Blowpop Australia noticed Elroy and Losty. They quickly became monthly residents at their events at Candy's Apartment.

Home Night Clubs premiere drum and bass event; Fracture Factory, saw the pair support Roni Size and Goldie. (Goldie even borrowed Losty off Elroy to MC his two hour set!)

They have also done a drum and bass set at Sydney's biggest and most sought after gig: The Big Day Out. They have both done solo and band sets there as well.

Elroy and Losty are also music producers making everything from Hip Hop to Breaks and remixing some of today's biggest Australian and Overseas talent. 2004 saw the pair sign a world wide publishing deal with Warner Chapple Music and resulted in a five track hip hop ep which the pair showcased at Sydney's Big Day Out.

The pair has recently been added to After Hours @ YU on the long weekend line up.

Elroy's promoting partner DJ Seven along with Losty have started to build their crew brand Goonz, putting on events and club nights which Elroy and Losty both perform at.

Tom Piper is also part of the Goonz crew as part of the music production team involved in Goonz Tunes

Losty also boasts two interstate residency's @ Halo in Hobart Tasmania and The Embassy in Townsville in northern Queensland Losty along the way met DJ Matt Roberts and they two did sets together in many different clubs over the years along side his work with Elroy, before long Elroy and Matt where booked together to play back to back, a chemistry was seen at once and it wasn't long before all 3 where booked to play sets together, seeing how effortless it was to pull of great set each and every time the 3 decided to form NU BOGIE as a group.

Matt started djing 10 years ago playing hip-hop and rap. You can still hear these roots incorporated into his funky sets these days with his original accapellas and loops. His style of music is fresh and edgy, mixing funky house with breaks and hip-hop influences. His sets always incorporate a lot of different techniques like scratching, beat juggling and sampling as well as that unmistakable sound of saxophones and big chunky bass lines. Just recently he was voted in this years Inthemix Top 50 DJ poll at No 44 as a result of his many residencies at Sydney's biggest nights including Sublime at Home nightclub (winner of DMA for best club night in NSW 3 years running), Fuss and After Ours at YU nightclub and Sounds On Sunday. As well as playing in many bars, including Homebar, Candy's Apartment, The Eastern, The Clovelly Hotel, UNSW, Coogee Bay Hotel and the Civic Hotel. Matt also regularly dj's in Canberra, Terrigal and Wollongong, where he is known for his happy and energetic personality behind the decks. While also playing in Seoul, Korea and in Malaysia for the Ford Formula 1 after party. Matt has played at some of the biggest parties around Sydney including Field Day, Luna Park NYE, Mobile Home and Sweatfest. He has supported the likes of Martin Solveig, Miguel Migs, Ian Pooley, 2 Many Djs, Tiga, Norman Jay, Kenny Dope Gonzales, Smokin Joe, DJ Sneak, Chris Lum, Joey Negro, Soul Central, C&C Music Factory, De La Soul, Snap, KLF, Steve Silk Hurley, Duane Harden, Alistair Whitehead and Jason Herd.

The last part of the puzzle was MC Fro. Fro and Matt Roberts had done many gigs together over the last few years, and Elroy and Losty had also been billed with Fro and Matt at one time or another and things seamed to always work and complement each other in regards to style so they 3 invite Fro to be the last piece of the puzzle Better known for rapping in night clubs around Sydney for the last 5 years, Fro delivers rhymes full of an energetic flow & enjoys rapping over an assortment of beats from Hip Hop & Breaks to funky house treats. He works with many of Sydney's top Djs like Matt Roberts, Elroy & Illya & always brings a party style vibe whenever he steps up to the mike. Now the group has formed it has eared a weekly residency @ Touch @ Dragonfly as well guest spots at Plantation @ Empire, the Roxy and Sounds on Sunday AS WELL AS TOURS COMING SOON!
