From a long background of warehouses, free beach parties in Ibiza, raves at DC10 and across Europe and the UK, Tim Sheridan's Veryverywrongindeed parties and its label Veryverywrongindeed Recordings now has rave support from DJs from Dan Ghenacia to Se..
The VVWI label has had props from Radio Slave, Justin Martin, Spektre, Filterwolf, Jim Masters, Sick Robot, Style of Eye, Bushwacka, Mike Monday, Luke Solomon, Abe Duque, King Roc, Laurent Garnier, TimeOut NYC, Lodown, IDJ, Sasha, POPstereo, Mr C, URB, Sebo K, Alland Byallo, Dan Ghenacia, Karotte, DJ Ralf, Hannah Holland, Ben Korbel, Tommy Four Seven, Sasha Kron, Marcus Vector, Emerson Todd, Ivan Smagghe, and DrownedinSound.
How does Sheridan describe the sound? The label and parties are a move on from his earlier Ibiza free parties, a set of nights called NASTYDIRTYSEXMUSIC that Pacha Magazine described as "the biggest success story Ibiza has seen for some time". That night went on to become a regular at Ministry, London, and one of that club’s most successful New Years Eve’s ever – bringing guests like Radio Slave, Switch, Dan Ghenacia, Paul Woolford and Mike Monday, often for their first UK big-club gigs.
But NASTYDIRTYSEXMUSIC had to end, as Sheridan explained in a post on the Faith forum: "I called my last thing NASTYDIRTYSEXMUSIC simply to knock up an imaginary genre specifically to avoid being pigeonholed. It kind of worked although those who tried to copy it since have got it dead wrong. So it had to end. Same goes for Veryverywrongindeed. Does what it says on the tin. I could have gone for “ALLMYFAVOURITETUNESTHATYOURENOTSUPPOSEDTOPLAYINIBIZA' or 'WONKY-WEIRDORECORDSTHATCONFUSETHEFUCK-OUTOFYOUSOBERNEVERMINDON-KETAMINE' but you have to be descriptive AND snappy".
