Do you "fit in"?  Does your dancing blend in with the others on the dancefloor?  Does your music taste occupy an area so middle of the road you may as well be a white line?  Or do you surf white lines of more exotic varieties?  Well, if you're the former you will probably want to look under M for Katie Meluurrghhh.  If your tastes and predilections are more "advanced" however, let us introduce you to The Rejekts, ejected not so much from the local disco as the entirety of civilised society.

These two Rejekts have inhabited clubland long enough to find the whole thing slightly limp, impotent and sterile these days, tiring of the music-by-numbers approach of DJs and labels, preferring instead to drift out to the fringes and fight a guerrilla war against mediocity.  Iain Taylor kicked off his DJ career at the Haçienda in 1995 and since then has been involved with some of the greatest parties in the north, including Airtight, and a four-year stint for Tribal Sessions at Sankeys Soap.  In that time he has also DJd all over the world, with tours through China and South America, and parties on some rock called Ibiza.  DJmagazine saw fit to describe him as "DJ, producer, promoter, miscreant and thoroughly decent chap", which just about sums it up.  A chance meeting led to his collaboration with Ma Saski, Himself a veteran of the Second Summer of Love, and equally hacked off with the state of clubland, Ma Saski aims to bring back the energy of those pioneering Blackburn raves and as such, has found a kindred spirit in Iain.

It's a two pronged attack.  The Rejekts skirt that fine line where things are not so much illegal as... well... not legal.  Their warehouses parties have reenergised the nocturnal landscape of the north, attracting disillusioned revellers keen to tap into something with integrity and vision.  The Rejekts numbers have swollen, now a cult-like assembly of good, good people, following Rejekt parties across the Pennines, across to Liverpool and across Europe to places such as Slovenia, where they partied in peace, amongst the pine trees and human fish.  If you can't come to the parties, the music can come to you.  The Rejekts have been tucked away in the studio, and the fruits of those endeavours are now ready.  The 22^nd October 2007 witnesses the first outing, the Es Kubells EP (deliberately misnamed after an Ibiza party of 2 summers ago and The Rejekts favourite alphabetic letter.)   Featuring two tracks by The Rejekts and a remix from Argy (of Pokerflat Fame).  More EPs will follow, more parties will follow as The Rejekts continue to skirt the darker fringes of club culture, mining what they describe as "Music to make your head melt". 

So do you think society welcomes you to its bosom?  Well, If you live out your life in discos it means you... like all of us... have been necessarily ejected from polite society.  Discos are the only places that will have us now.  Join us.  We are all Rejekts.
