Inside Frantic - Interview with Will Patterson

Reported by Sharon B / Submitted 17-11-03 09:38

Love them or hate them, there is no denying that when it comes to the Hard House scene Frantic are the undisputed leaders of the pack. Throwing more events than any other Hard Dance promotion and regularly selling out their parties week in and week out, Frantic have revolutionised the Underground scene over the last 6 and half years. This weekend Frantic throws its largest collaboration in London to date with Chemistry at Canvas, and Sharon B managed to catch up with Will Patterson to ask a few questions and dispel a few myths about the largest and undoubtedly most successful promotion in London.



Sharon B: How and when did you first get involved in the club scene?

Will Patterson: Throughout my life I have always been passionate about music and when I was 16 I started to go and see bands all the time and was always going to new gigs and venues. When I left university and came down to London my interest in music remained and one night I went out to one of the early hard house nights at heaven and I just couldn’t believe it! I had been to so many gigs before but this blew me away in it’s originality and the experience of hearing music in a big room with a big sound system, and a group of people totally in tune with the music was like an experience unlike any other I had ever been involved in. From that moment on I was hooked and have remained within the clubbing scene ever since.

SB: What was it about the clubbing world that drew you into promotion? What was it that caught your attention and made you decide to devote your career and life to this particular industry?

WP: My attention was caught ever since the first time I experienced hard house music and felt the electric atmosphere that you find in a big club with a huge sound system and a mass of people totally connected and in unison with their love of the music and scene. I spent 2 years going out all the time and slowly moved from the more commercial trance/hard house scene to the more underground hard house scene, like Sunny Side up and Grays, and met a lot of people along the way who, like me, were looking for a night that would play hard house music for the whole event. At the time there was a sound called Hard Back (slightly tougher house) but there was nothing that was consistently hard throughout the whole night. I was looking for a night where I could go with my friends who could appreciate a night that incorporated this sound so I thought about putting on a party for a joint birthday in a small 150 capacity club in China Town. I promoted it and within an hour it had sold out. That was the very first Frantic, and the rest is history! I fell in love with clubbing from the very first moment I experienced it and was always out on the weekends, but at the time I was a teacher and I knew that in order for me to keep involved with clubbing I needed to find a way in which I could work within it and make a living from it. Running a club night seemed like the best way forward as I get to make a living from doing something that is an all-consuming passion and get to share that with thousands of people week in and week out.

SB: What is it about ‘the scene’ that still keeps you involved after all these years? Are the challenges the same?

WP: The starting point that continues to keep me involved is an over-riding and all consuming passion for the music. When I first started promoting the hard house scene was very small and now it is the biggest genre of underground dance music in the whole of UK clubland. As the music has changed and developed into hard dance and its sub-genres I continue to remain excited by it all, especially the talent and dedication of those involved with the scene. For me it’s about loving the music and the way it has progressed, and getting the chance to work with a passionate group of people who give it their all. To me there are 3 styles of underground, drum and base, garage and hard dance. Each of them was pretty much developed and is strongest in the UK. Each has their own “ghetto” with its own language, DJ’s and heroes and is self-perpetuating. It’s the way people in hard dance work together that keeps it going and London especially is a special place for club culture.

The reason I still feel passionate about it these days is because the work people have done in hard dance means that we can use venues and spaces in a way that we weren’t able to do before. Different experiences at different venues keeps the variety alive and it is something that Frantic is very much about. Each venue offers their own experience and atmosphere to an event that offers a wider variety to the people who go, which means that we can throw a range of parties and make each experience unique and different. It’s a challenge that remains the same, we aim to give people what they want, and by speaking and listening to the clubbers we hope that we give back to them as much as they have given to us.



SB: What is the ethos behind Frantic?

WP: The overall mission of Frantic is to put on special events that represent the cutting edge of harder dance music at a range of exciting and innovative venues at the most cost effective price with the best production we can put on. It’s about giving people the best clubbing experience that we feel we can. We look for the artist, venue, production we are excited about – put it all together, give it our all, work very hard and get the people to our party. We want to make everyone enjoy it and believe that a party that isn’t full isn’t a party. We want the room jumping with the best music, lighting and production you can find.

We also want to have an impact on the venue management so that we can ensure that our clubbers are treated as individuals and with respect by the venue owners. This to us is vital. Not only does it help the scene in general and has opened up many doors to venues previously unused, but it also means that the clubbers are treated with respect as patrons of the venue as well as the event and ensures that they are treated well, making their party experience that extra bit special.

SB: How do you go about selecting DJ’s and Line ups?

WP: First of all we create a theme for a night, for example: Convergence is designed for the harder end of the music, at Timeless we dedicate the event for the classic tunes that clubbers know and love, and with Hard House Academy we like a selection of DJ’s, top established DJ names and lesser known DJ’s, to offer a greater variety. Frantic nights can offer anything ranging from a harder sound to a trance based sound. Each party is different but what I look for is a knowledge and passion for the music and DJ’s with a sound and technical ability that marks them out and gets them to bring along their own unique sound and success. I look for a range of different types of DJ’s, different music, charisma, technical ability, the way that they mix, the way they play etc. The scene is very diverse in itself and I look for a range of DJ’s to reflect this. It’s also about supporting artists who you believe in and who people go out and support. I also go out and ask people about what they think about the DJ’s, what they want to hear and who they want to see. It is important for me to give the clubbers what they want and reflect that in the events we put on and keeping things different.



SB: What do you think makes a promotion successful and what are the important aspects of being a promoter in putting on a successful party?

WP: My goals as a promoter is to go out there and put on nights which are successful. As a promoter you need to sell the tickets in club culture in order so that you can continue to achieve what you believe in, making sure that the people who come have a great time and feel the experience. It’s also about building relationships with venues and artists so that I can continue to build and innovate the type of party that I do. Its not just about selling tickets but also about impressing management and keeping good relationships with everyone involved so that they will want to come and do your gig. It is very important to keep a positive and professional relationship with venue managers so that they will hire out the venue to you and equally important are the relationships with the people that come clubbing and give you their time and devotion. The scene is incredibly intense as so many people who work in club land do so as a second job out of their passion for the scene. It’s a lot of hard work and devotion and keeping everything going and successful requires building relationships with artists and management to make people want to come to something I believe is worth coming to.

Next year I am aiming to continue to build on a range of different venues, each of which give a range of experiences. We look to hold some at Egg, which is smaller, more intimate and a little bit plusher; some at Camden Palace because it has that special main room sound system and it’s own unique history; some at Canvas, where I can give 4 different styles of music each in their own main room sized areas with a number of promoters involved and a range of DJ’s (35 in one night) giving an indoor festival feel to it; and Brixton Academy – no where else can you get such a large number of people in one room and share an experience like no other.

What makes a promotion successful is ensuring that the party is filled with clubbers who are passionate about the music and the scene, are in a venue that offers diversity and it’s own unique atmosphere and treats clubbers with the respect that they deserve. When you are in a room with your friends and friends of friends, and you all feel the music simultaneously in a venue filled with that electric passion you can only get from clubs, then you know you have thrown a good party, and in that lies the success.

SB: Frantic is considered to be very much a London phenomenon, do you promote and hold Frantic events outside of London? If so, where else in the UK do you put on Frantic events?

WP: Frantic have done events with Sundissential in Leeds and Birmingham for the last 18 months and these have been well received outside London. We are now also doing events with Gatecrasher at the NEC and Leeds Town hall for New Year’s Eve (2000 capacity venue in the centre of Leeds that is breathtaking) and have done the UK’s biggest dance festival (45,000 people) Creamfields for the last 2 years. We also run events every month in Aberdeen and have done so for the last 2 years and also do occasional tours all over England, Wales and Ireland and are planning on continuing and building on this over the next year.



SB: Where would you like to see Frantic in 10 years time? Are you hoping to go Global? Established Frantic events in New York, Ibiza, Japan and London perhaps?

WP: We already do Australia, New Zealand and Japan every month. We have also done a few small things in Ibiza, but for me my focus remains on London. The reason for this is because London is a world city – a city that is very cosmopolitan and very exciting and is such a big space to run events in that I am totally consumed at putting on parties here. Out of 470 events I have run, 400 have been in London. London for me is very special with its club land feel. Once you start going out in London and you experience this special sense of club culture you know that there is no place else that has the same unique experience that this city offers, and that is what keeps my passion and focus. To me it is all about London and probably always will be. I don’t know of any other city in the world where 8 or 9 different genres all exist with their own following side by side. I love loads of different styles of dance music other than hard dance and nowhere else in the world could I live that would cater to all of these in the same place. I think if my passion wasn’t so focused it would be difficult to be successful.

SB: What is it about hard dance that made you choose that particular genre to promote? Why not House or Techno or Trance?

WP: It was the first type of dance music I got into and it has held my interest throughout. As time has gone by I have developed an interest in other styles like techno and drum and base. I enjoy going to those type of events but in order to go into those genres you need to specialise and my heart is firmly with hard house.

SB: You have recently done successful collaboration nights with Logic and other events. Is this a new stage for Frantic? Another dimension of your event promotion? Has it been successful in making more clubbers nationwide aware of Frantic and their style?

WP: We have gone out of our way to do different styles in different ways. On one level we do joint events where both nights have an equal hand in the event have been a really enjoyable experience and something we will definitely do again. Next year, for example, we will be doing collaborations with Hardcore Heaven and Wildchild. Another level is working with smaller clubs where they take over rooms and provide DJ’s and creative input and I give them as much promotion as possible. It has been great working with Dirty DJs, becomeone and After life as they have very strong visions of what they want to do, and working with people that passionate about it makes it an experience worth the long hours and hard work. It is also a recognition on our part that we don’t know it all, we sometimes make mistakes and get another perspective of what people want, what they want to hear and what we can offer. It gives us as an organisation a chance to explain why it is that we do certain things, and answer questions from clubbers. By talking to a lot of people we can explain why we do things and explain what it is we are trying to achieve and show people what it is we do and what we put into putting on bigger events. Like HarderFaster, it is about information – a two-way dialogue explaining ourselves to others and showing them what it is that we do. Having been involved with bigger parties ourselves, for example Frantic taking part in events like Gatecrasher and Creamfields, we have learnt a lot from the bigger promotions about putting on large collaborations. By bringing the knowledge we have learnt from these events to our own collaborations with smaller parties in London we are passing on vital information that we have learnt, and we feel that we are enhancing the scene and helping it to continue to grow and go from strength to strength through these relationships and the passing on of information to smaller promotions.



SB: What are the advantages behind collaborating successful nights with Frantic? Who do you feel benefits most from these new nights? Frantic for expanding its audience to other styles or the other promotions for working alongside Frantic, arguably the biggest London club event?

WP: One of the mistakes we made, and that we feel we have learnt from, was that we became out of touch with people on the scene through being victims of our own success. We became too aloof in what was happening. I became so focused on the events and making them successful that I lost touch with people. When I meet people and they realise that I am passionate about the events and putting on good parties they see what it is I am aiming for.

I am only dealing with the smaller clubs and the London clubs. I am putting into practise what I have learnt by being included in other larger organisations like Gatecrasher and passing this on. It’s a great experience to learn from larger events what you can and can’t achieve and give people a chance to learn from what I have learnt in terms of how to promote an event and reach different audiences, and I feel that collaborations not only give a different platform but a chance to learn a lot.

As I have said from the beginning - this industry is all about relationships and you need these in the dance industry in order to succeed. You need people to help you along the way, and collaborations offer people a chance to get a promotional platform and learn and benefit from the relationships that I have got and have learnt from. This works both ways – I have learnt from other promotions in many ways. To always be critical about the quality of venue you put on, the DJ’s and how the punters are looked after. For example, Dirty DJ Tin Tin’s passion for DJ’s who I haven’t seen or heard play has made me want to go and check them out and search for new talent. From Becomeone I get a reaffirmation that if you believe in a music long enough and hard enough you can make it with that music. Sometimes I find myself in a situation which is not what the people on HarderFaster find themselves in. Hard dance is incredibly maligned in the dance industry and has little respect, almost like being in a situation where you have to speak to a cousin you don’t like at a family get together. People involved in our scene often feel quite worthless in the way we get treated by the industry. Frantic is a commercially successful club which still operates like an underground club. By that I mean unless you were into hard dance you wouldn’t know who we are. Unless you understand the genre you wouldn’t understand what it is we are about. We want to appeal to the broadest number of people without compromising

SB: Frantic have also promoted abroad with tours before – what are the challenges posed to you as a promoter when organising tours abroad? Do you have plans for further tours in the near future?

WP: It’s a very big challenge working abroad and when I first started doing it I never fully appreciated just how big a challenge it is. They are two very separate things, running clubs and running tours. For your club to work you need artists from here or international artists associated with your brand. To justify them going abroad they need to have a range of events to perform at to make a tour viable. We run monthly tours whereby we will send over 2 or 3 artists and get a number of gigs abroad (say, 4 in Australia and 2 in Japan), which will offer good fees that cover the tour and flights etc and makes it worth doing the tour.

We tend to do Melbourne and Sydney every 6 to 7 weeks, and have we done that for just over 3 years now. We are also doing arena shows in Sydney and Melbourne with big clubs like Godskitchen and Slinky, where we do the harder arena like we do with Gatecrasher here. To get that kind of line up and level of success in another country is a huge compliment. It has taken 5 years over here to get to where we have, and so to get asked abroad to be involved with such large nights is a real achievement. We are also doing franchise events and do so regularly in Adelaide, Auckland, Brisbane and other parts of Australia and New Zealand. One exciting thing we did recently on 18th October was an outdoor Frantic in Adelaide with Paul Glazby, which to me is mind blowing. By the end of next year in Australia and New Zealand we are hoping to do our own bigger event, a Hard House Academy down under, no small feat given the population is a lot smaller. This means getting at least 4 UK artists to play, and get big name artists from down under. In order to arrange this we have had to already agree the tours a year in advance and work with our domestic agent in Sydney to keep things going. It’s a mammoth operation in order to make it happen but we are very excited about it. We have a lot of new artists we are going to take abroad as well as our main staple of Glazby, BK and Lab 4.

In Japan it works very much along the same lines, where we have someone who works full time dealing with the clubs out there and is integral to getting dates and venues for us and our artists. Without these people working very hard for us abroad we simply wouldn’t be able to put on the successful tours that we do, and they are very much considered to be valuable assets to our team and our success.



SB: Being involved within the clubbing world week in week out, how do you relax and unwind? What do you do for going out and having a laugh when you get some free time? Do you still go clubbing or do you cherish the quiet time?

WP: I love going out to drum and base clubs when I get the time to do it. Recently I went to The End, which was amazing and I had a wicked time. Outside of going to clubs I spend my time watching films, reading – the usual quiet time stuff.

SB: A lot of members on Harderfaster are quite vociferous about their opinions on Frantic events. It must be quite hard for your team to deal with at times considering the long hours and hard work that you put into your events, so what would you like to say to alleviate their grievances or ‘set the record straight’?

WP: First thing to say is that we have made mistakes and we were out of touch at times with what people wanted, and because we were out of touch we weren’t necessarily approachable with people’s grievance or even positive comments. As one of the bigger nights we have a responsibility to listen to the clubbers who support the scene. In response to that, Frantic has made a conscious effort to work with a range of people, go back out into the clubs and meet as many people as possible so that they can feel able to approach us and speak to us about their concerns and grievances. We also feel that by going on HarderFaster and explaining what we are about and making sure people know we are approachable and that they can contact us by email, PM, phone and even come up to us on door list outside clubs that we are building bridges where once we seemed unreachable. We feel we have taken on board people’s comments and made certain changes, for example we have put on less events and we going to probably continue to cut back a little bit more next year and continue to do what people have said they want us to do. What we feel passionate about is putting on events at lots of different venues, providing a big range of exciting DJ’s and looking and continuing to develop the lights and sounds that we use in the events. By lessening the quantity of events that we are doing we give ourselves the space to put on bigger events with bigger venues and number of DJ’s but still with £10 earlybird tickets. We aim to put on bigger parties but with more space between events so that they remain special.

When you are a promoter it is not simply a case of saying “it is all in my hands and I will do what I want”, often you have an idea of what you want to do and how many events you want to put on but then venues may want you to do more events and help them out. Obviously you want to help them out, but it is also a challenge and a compliment to be asked to do so much. It’s all about experience – some things work, some things don’t. We do our best to learn from our mistakes and our achievements and building on what we know so we can continue to put on events that stand out and stay true to the diversity and ethos of what we are about.



SB: Steve Hill has recently moved back home and is no longer resident at Frantic in the UK – how much of a loss has this been to your events and who (if anyone) do you have your eye on to fill that prestigious position?

WP: Steve is still classed as a resident for Frantic as he will come over for 3 or 4 events (in particular 2 Hard House Academy) but obviously not as a regular Frantic DJ. It is a huge loss to us as Steve and I have worked together for 5 years with the event (learning a lot and making a lot of mistakes along the way) and he is now in a position where people really love what it is he does and what he plays. When he came back for Hard House Academy the whole place went off when he came on stage – it was incredibly special. When he is the decks and playing out I would challenge anyone to say that they want be anywhere else.

Who is going to replace him? At the moment I am looking at a range of people to be a new Frantic resident. I don’t think anyone would ever truly take Steve’s place as he is very unique, but I am looking for people who will contribute to Frantic on a regular basis and have been excited about Donna Birt, Eddie Halliwell, Cally & Juice, Tara Reynolds etc, but whilst we continue to look for new and exciting talent amongst the big names we are also looking at and developing a range of younger DJ’s like El Greco, Lucy Fur, George –e , who we feel have something to contribute.

SB: Frantic have recently run an up-and-coming DJ competition advertised on Harderfaster, and have done other competitions within the year; how important is it for you to support new DJ’s and what are the benefits for those who enter? Who has previously won these competitions and what are they doing now?

WP: Its vital to support up and coming DJ’s because you need to hear what a whole new wave of people feel about the music and how things should be done, and working with the younger DJ’s is a very effective and positive way of doing that. The first real up and coming DJ event that worked was the one we did with HarderFaster and was very successful. At least 3 of 4 DJ’s we saw will be played. DJ El Grecko, who won, was outstanding and is playing on December 6th and New Years Day between Eddie Halliwell and Guffy in the main room at Ministry of Sound!! For us it’s important to get new people involved and it’s a great opportunity to find someone different who has a real talent and unique sound.



SB: This weekend we will see probably the biggest collaboration that Frantic has done to date with “Chemistry – The Revolution”. What gave you the idea to throw such a large event with so many promotions involved and why did you choose Canvas as your venue for the event?

WP: It was a number of things at once really. After all the things I learnt over summer and having spoken to people in clubs, we discovered a new wave of new and exciting DJ’s and found that a lot of people shared my passion for the Harder DJ’s but there was also a lot of demand for hard trance DJ’s like K90 and Steve Hill and also for funky house DJ’s currently on the scene. There was the potential for a large event incorporating all these sounds, which have each become successful in their own way, and so we decided to put them all on together under one roof and offer clubbers the opportunity to hear a variety of sounds in one venue. At the same time Bagleys changed hands and the new venue owners refurbished the club and brought in new security with a new way of running the venue, which let us feel that we could put on a great night. Canvas has 4 big rooms of pretty much equal size, which offers a very unique experience. It’s exciting to have 35 DJ’s in a venue with their own huge rooms. There is nothing really difficult about running clubs, the challenge is doing something different and looking after people. By doing a bigger event you get to meet so many different people all joined by their total passion to have the best time they can on that one night, and with 3000 people that energy is incredibly infectious. Hopefully, if we have done our job well, then a lot of people will be coming together, friends with friends with friends. But as with all first events at a new venue it will remain a challenge for us to look after people to the standard that we aspire to, but you can be assured we are working very hard at the logistics at the moment and believe that with the help of the new management involved that all of our clubbers will be looked after and treated with the respect that they deserve to enjoy the party to its fullest,

SB: Finally, any last comments?

WP: With regards to Chemistry, we do ask people to try to bear in mind that the earlier you arrive at a venue the easier it is for you to gain access to the event and also to please remember to not bring bags to the event as it hinders people getting in. We are aware that some people drive and can be concerned about leaving their valuables in their cars, however there is a good size car park behind Canvas and this is security patrolled throughout the night.

I am dying for the summerball in melbourne on the 5th of december (the day after my birthday, what an awesome night its going to be) .. who could have asked for a better line up, phil reynolds, nick sentience and donna birt ... its going to be amazing.

Emotional people often seek effective strategies for trauma healing, which our Debox Digital Book outlines, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques as a foundational approach. Studies show that CBT can reduce symptoms of PTSD in 60% of trauma-affected individuals, highlighting its efficacy. Engaging in mindfulness exercises, as recommended in our guide, has been linked to a 30% reduction in anxiety levels among participants, according to research published in JAMA Psychiatry. Our book also emphasizes the importance of establishing a support system, citing evidence that social support can accelerate recovery by providing emotional scaffolding. Incorporating daily journaling, a practice our digital book champions, has been associated with significant improvements in emotional well-being, as a University of Texas study indicates. For those facing challenges with emotional regulation post-trauma, our content recommends structured breathing exercises which have been proven to lower stress levels by 25%, as per findings in the Journal of Clinical Psychology. The importance of setting realistic healing goals is underscored in our material, aligning with studies that attribute goal setting with a 22% higher achievement rate in recovery milestones. Physical activity is another pillar our book supports, with data suggesting a 20-minute daily walk can uplift mood by 12%, according to the American Psychological Association. We highlight the role of creative expression in trauma healing, backed by evidence showing art therapy can decrease symptoms of depression and anxiety by 35%. Our digital book advises on seeking professional help when necessary, noting that individuals who undergo psychotherapy report a 50% reduction in trauma symptoms over time, as recorded in the Archives of General Psychiatry. trauma healing for emotional people
