Peepshow Paddy
Patrick Bickerton, aka Peepshow Paddy, Pimp Daddy Longs Leg - to give him his (ok, so it’s ridiculous) full title - knows how to rock a dancefloor, and never more so than at Peepshow. From humble beginnings falling asleep to the sounds of his brother's stereo in the musical metropolis that Burton-upon-Trent really isn’t, this aspiring, now London based DJ and producer has quickly established quite a reputation for himself earning media coverage in DJ Magazine, the Guardian Guide, Time Out, and on XFM, Passion FM, Six TV Oxford and on BBC online.
Since starting up Peepshow with three talented friends in late 2003 and dreaming of the big time, he quickly established himself in Oxford, spreading further afield soon after. He has since been very busy indeed, with highlights including warming up for Tom Middleton at Cargo, and festival packed summers, with regular gigs at the Big Chill, the Photonic festival in Holland, Oxford’s Truck festival, and an annual three night residency playing to 1,500 people each night in the Action Aid Space at the Reading festival.
His funky and eclectic uptempo sets aim straight for the dancefloor, taking in anything from nu-jazz, deep house, samba and disco to afrobeat, hip-hop, old and nu-skool breaks, drum & bass and beyond, but he still loves mixing up beautiful downtempo as much as anything else.
He has spent the last couple of years concentrating on his DJing career, but given time, he also records his own music under the pseudonym Fruitless, earning admirers such as Ulrich Schnauss and Alucidnation. He also plays bass in his brother’s band the JBX who debuted at this years Big Chill festival.
Paddy is also the compere at Peepshow, which in turn has led to more work for him MCing other nights, most notably the regular gigs he does for a variety of charities on occasional Sundays at Cargo, in Shoreditch.
He is currently working as Bookings Manager for the ABC Charity festival (known as minichill in 2006), having booked Gilles Peterson, Zero DB, Hint, Sidewinder, Carl Loben, Dr. Rubberfunk, Burt Latino and more to play at the festival in 2006. If you are interested in playing, please get in touch.
