Claude VonStroke does not scowl and look mean while he DJs. He does not pretend to know everything and he will be nice to you and your friends. He is grateful to be doing music for a living and he knows that the reason people go to parties is to have fun. If you want to act cool and not have any fun then he is not the right DJ for you.
Claude’s real name is Barclay Crenshaw, a guy raised in the suburbs Detroit who wanted to be a filmmaker but always had a knack for music. After several different careers, VonStroke started the “dirtybird” label at the very late age of 32.
Since 2005, dirtybird has carved out a niche as a premiere American label and has released over 40 EPs from the likes of dollop favourites The Martin Brothers (Justin & Christian), Julio Bashmore, Riva Starr, Solo, Zombie Disco Squad, Tim Green, Worthy & Style Of Eye.
In an effort to give something back to the community VonStroke unveiled a new label “mothership” in 2007. A large percentage of the label’s proceeds go to a music school for children in Claude’s hometown of Detroit, Michigan. This label features more euro-flavored techno and house featuring groups like Catz ‘n Dogz, Maetrik and Voodeux.
Tour wise, Claude has headlined almost every major club, festival and basement after-party in the world.
Two of the most talked about sets in dollop history have been provided by Claude VonStroke - firstly his epic 3 hour set back in 2008 and most recently in the dollop room at the 2010 Indoor Festival. Still riding high on the critical acclaim for his 'Bird Brain' LP, we are looking forward to welcoming him back dollop at Stealth!
BIG BIG BIG.

Jamie Woon, like James Blake, is one of those new male artists showing what can happen when you combine conventionally strong soulful vocals with dubstep's eerie spaciousness and resonant production techniques.
Woon experienced an epiphany when Burial remixed his little heard rendition of 'Wayfaring Stranger'. Injecting some bass, the reclusive producer completed changed the singer's view of music.
Assisting Jamie Woon is recent album sessions, the track 'Night Air' boasted some additional production from Burial. The result was a stunning song, with Woon's voice riding atop some rumbling sub-bass.
Named at number 4 in the of BBC Sound of 2011, Jamie Woon is preparing to release his debut album.
