2010 @ Dalston Superstore

well, its nearly time for the launch of 2010 my new night at the Dalston Superstore.
Already the Superstore is creating a freshness to a somewhat tired east end scene and
its not hard to see why. Packed every night with the most eclectic of club nights this place
is fast becoming the home to many bewildered with the down turn on Shoreditch.

Celebrating black dance music from the late 80s and early 90s , 2010 is going back to the original days of house and revisiting some lost classics. Our Grace Jones themed night will
be higlighted with the wonderful Sam Amant doing her turn on some Grace classics accompanied by some shit hot tracks of her own. The Discotastic sounds of Jim Stanton,
scene legend Jeffrey Hinton and Five Stars 'Stedman Pearson will provide audio stimulation
alongside and introducing Marky Mark and Ms. P. And me of course.

We'll be playing Grace Jones tracks, visuals and i've created some fresh Grace inspired photography that will be adorning the walls on the night. All this and an after party at Vogue
just up the road from the Superstore. All good.

Im gonna post a mix as a taster to the night. Watch this space dudes.

Thats 2010, this satday at Dalston Superstore from 10-4. See ya there!

download mix via zshare

From Lindstroms sleazy disco rework of Imagination we 'Get Next To' First Touch's slice of 80s disco funk, slapped back byXavier and his 'Sucker'. Sliding underneath we have the deadly bassline from Hamsterdam, giving way to the sublime refix of 'Situation' by Hercules & Love Affair. Waiting around the corner is Jackmeister' Steve Silk Hurley with his P-P-P-Percussion'
and the other Steve, Workin This Pussy, you wet yet? Inner City 'Big Fun'....Nuff said'. Sirkin's recipe for the Juan Maclean bangs in the oven on a high temp into a 90s Rave anthem followed by The Gap Band droppin those Bombs and lastly 'Sudha with her bitchy DFA style slice of hash cake.

Now if that aint a party in ya mouth i dont know what IS!!!

Remember to swallow!!

Staying Up All Night !!!

Layback, Ladies and Gentlemen.... Grace is here. Grace will warm you, warn you and conform you. Be open and be ready. Be prepared to lose what control you ever had, anticipate your fate.

Daddy Loves Acid


Rokk
Presents .. Bags Of Acid

Flicking through my record collection in the basement of my mate's house, im stepping back in time. Each record presents a memory, a smile, a drunken moment, a particulary debauched party and almost always a tear. Realising that i have little space to put any of my records, ive decided to transfer all to a Digital vault, im gonna sell them once digitised but keep some of the sleeves.

All this tripping down memorys lane inspired me to create a mix. Reaching through the past i decided to compile some of my favourite Hip House, Acid and original House tracks. From Wee Papa Girl Rappers to Monie Love and back to S'express. Over 2 days i chose tracks and came up with 'Bags Of Acid'. A compilation of some of the choons in my personal Boombox. ha...

So, here it is ... Bags Of Acid. Download via Zshare here with Tracklisting below. Rokk out!!! ")

JOINERS ARMS R.I.P.?



The Joiners Arms on Hackney Road has always felt wrong so why does it feel 'so right?
I-d recently tokened it the 'Studio 54' of London. High praise indeed, hmmm? Thanks I-d you may have jus killed it. Its popularity as a late night drinking den has increased over the past few months. No longer can you get in on a Friday and Saturday night with ease of a slippery east end eel. Instead we form a queue and wait 20mins to get in. I mean its always been a busy place but WHOA NELLY..... Rumours of the establishment now wanting to charge £5 on the door are a sure fire reason, that its days are numbered. The Joiners has always had a reputation for the cheese and sleaze. One of the few homo haunts open till 2am and on a sunday evening its a fine place to bring in the new week. Enjoy it while it lasts, its like the Last Days Of Disco.....

Snow Man

So, London grinds to a halt under 25cm of Snow... Trains are cancelled and Buses skid off the roads. The phone lines were jammed this morning due to the amount of joyous employees informing their employers, that they were NOT going be into work today. Some finding that their Employers hadnt even made it in to recieve the calls.
Philip Schofield was absent from 'This Morning' leaving Fern to run the show and make Tea for Lily Allen who had been drafted in from GMTV because their guests hadnt turned up. Lily then managed to drivel on about her new single with a painstaking ease. Zoneing out i contemplated taking out Basil (the Irish terrier i live with) for a walk on the Common.
Here's what happened.
