Dance music fans are in for a treat on Christmas Eve when pioneering electronic DJ, John 00 Fleming, will be airing a 90-minute sunset show from a beautiful and remote South Hams clifftop location.

The internationally renown DJ and music producer, who has over 10 million album sales and 30 produced mix compilations, was filmed at the abandoned Second World War gun emplacement at Forward Point, Kingswear in September.

Working in collaboration with Totnes-based dance label, Goldswindler; Defacto Films and The Famous Rebel shop in the Narrows, Fleming performed on a fully rigged stage high above the English Channel at the disused Brownstone Battery.

Described by Radio 1 DJ, Pete Tong, as “a national treasure of trance music,” Fleming’s hour-and-a-half long Christmas Eve set consists of ambient, progressive house and trance music.

The acclaimed DJ - who has been heading the electronic music scene since the ‘90s and has 600,000 Facebook followers - and his team gained permission from the National Trust for the show, which will be broadcast to a global audience at 10pm on Friday December 24.

Both Fleming and his collaborators, which also include the Plymouth-based Nub Sound, worked on the show for free, contributing to the costs from their own pockets as a Christmas gift to music lovers, said Goldswindler’s Rusty Goldsacks.

Rusty said: “Over the lockdown we decided to film a beautiful electronic music set in partnership with various local creatives, with the aim of giving viewers a moment to reflect on their personal circumstances during lockdown.

“We did this for the love of music and for fans who would like to see something unique and hear something special, given the constraints placed on all of us over the past 18 months.

“The show is a powerful demonstration of what’s possible when people come together with a common intention, to give all who watch it a moment to reflect on the circumstances they have faced throughout this most challenging period in recent memory, and to enjoy the healing power of music in nature.

“It is a beautiful production and we hope that JOOF’s set, and the messaging that he conveys through it, brings each of you encouragement to push through your challenges, to keep going for you and for those who love and need you, and for you to enjoy the closest experience of a JOOF performance as possible given the absence of gigs for far too long.”

Writing to fans on Facebook page, Fleming said it has been a “testing year for everyone.”

He wrote: “We haven’t done a stream together for a while, so I got together with my good friend, Goldswindler, a few weeks back to record you something magical at a very special location, with drones etc, and wanted to give you this as a Christmas gift.

“It’s a YouTube premier that will go live at 22:00 (UK time) on 24th December and lasts for 90 minutes.

“I’m coming to join you in the chat, so we can chat and hang out all the way through the show.”

Although a free event, audiences are urged to make a donation to the National Coastwatch, which has a lookout at the former battery observation point at the clifftop site.

Rusty urged: “If you would like to show any appreciation for this show, please feel free to support the National Coastwatch Institute.

“It is run by the most inspiring community of retired volunteers who have tirelessly kept watch over all who have found solace, peace and much needed mind space in the vastness of the ocean by walking along the cliffs; where we were permitted the rare opportunity to film this for you during lockdown.”
