You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Slam''' are a Scottish [[record producers|producer]]/[[disc jockey|DJ]] duo from [[Glasgow]], Scotland, consisting of '''Stuart McMillan''' (born 1966, Glasgow) and '''Orde Meikle''' (born 1964, [[Oxford]]). They are co-founders of [[Soma Quality Recordings]]. Their music style consists of [[house music|house]] and [[techno]].

==History==
McMillan and Meikle's first club event was a weekly Thursday night called Black Market, in the Glasgow club, Fury Murrys. They played a mix of house, funk and rap. In early 1988, they were approached by Steven Sleepman (aka Steven Workman), after he heard his first [[acid house]] track on DJ Segun's late night show on [[Radio Clyde]]. During a brief stint PRing for Club Eden, Sleepman secured a Saturday night at Glasgow's Tin Pan Alley, which was to become the home of Slam. Dave Clarke, an original founding partner of Black Market ran PR with Sleepman. Prior to the launch of her musical career [[Dot Allison]] (a future musical collaborator) worked with the PR team, and DJ Harri was a regular guest on the turntables.

Slam then launched a Friday night at the [[Sub Club]] called Joy.<ref name="LarkinDM">((cite book|title=[[Encyclopedia of Popular Music|The Virgin Encyclopedia of Dance Music]]|editor=[[Colin Larkin (writer)|Colin Larkin]]|publisher=[[Virgin Books]]|date=1998|edition=First|isbn=0-7535-0252-6|page=311))</ref> Black Market still kept its own musical identity throughout the [[Second Summer of Love]], playing an eclectic mix of musical genres.<ref>((Cite news |url=http://www.list.co.uk/article/1709-sub-club/ |title=Sub Club: Club Class |publisher=The List |date=26 September 2007 |first=Henry |last=Northmore |accessdate=1 December 2009 ))</ref>

Shortly after, [[Tennent's Lager]]’s marketing agency approached Slam with a sponsorship deal to tour Scotland's clubs over a period of two years. The tour ultimately led to Slam's residency at [[T in the Park]] and increased their nationwide profile.

Slam have released [[Single (music)|singles]] since the mid-1990s, including "Positive Education", "Eterna" and "Lifetimes". They co-founded [[Soma Quality Recordings]] in 1991,<ref name="LarkinDM"/> along with label boss Dave Clarke. More recently, Slam Events was launched - a subdivision of Soma that deals mainly with the promotion of Slam and Slam nights. Slam were the resident DJs at Pressure, a monthly event promoted by Soma and Slam Events which occurred on the last Friday of every month at [[The Arches (Glasgow)|The Arches]] in Glasgow,<ref name="LarkinDM"/> which was later relocated to SWG3 and rebranded as Maximum Pressure after The Arches nightclub was closed in 2015. They also have a residency at the [[Sub Club]] in Glasgow at another Soma and Slam Events night called Return to Mono. They have also been resident DJs at [[Fabric (club)|Fabric]] in London. Over recent years Slam have curated and played in the Slam Tent, at [[T in the Park]],<ref>((Cite news |url=http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/showbiz/music/clubbing/2007/05/04/slam-plan-new-album-release-just-in-time-for-t-86908-19042861/ |title=Slam plan new album release just in time for T in the Park |date=4 May 2007 |newspaper=[[Daily Record (Scotland)|The Daily Record]] |accessdate=1 December 2009 ))</ref> and they have appeared on [[BBC Radio 1]]'s "[[Essential Mix]]" six times between 1994 and 2008, as well as appearing at [[Bestival]] in 2008.
