the rolling london dancing thread

none of us stayed til the end of smagghe, remember! I enjoyed it but not so much that I'd rave about it for weeks afterwards. isolée was great though.

nite versions = rmx album yes, the nite version of 'e talking' is the one which always gets played out.

thanks! i deleted all the versions of this a while ago, but it'd been in my head recently and i wanted to know which one to download, and now i do. they're going to be really good live, i suspect.

I am interviewing monsieur vitalic this weekend!

(cis and i were contemplating going on to fabric afterwards, actually, on the assumption that diplo will probably be on after 2.)

there's a grime gig on sep 16 (clashes with poptimism unfortunately) at, er, the vice pub. jme, skepta and big h are lined up.

The Rex mix is king - I always let it play through. Still doubt I'm showing on Friday as I'm sure to overexert myself rock'n'roll dancing in Fulham.

Just a shame I couldn't see much, with all those tall blokes standing in front of me.

Simian Mobile Disco were a lot more dancier than I expected too.

luciano and alex under @ the end
nathan fake @ the key

:((((

when is fabric birthday?!?!?!?!

Tempting.

I can't decide whether to try and go over for the Birthday (MANDY and Booka Shade!) or Michael Mayer (Michael Mayer!).

It's like the DJs I've never seen and really want to versus the one I know is brilliant.

soulwax nite versions is on slsk now, btw.

:'''''''''''''''''''''''''(

i saw jo jo whatsername from nag nag nag play electrohouse and mike dred playing v fast acid (UI stuff) in different rooms at the same time. v strange line up

Fabric was more rammed than I have ever ever seen it before and half the people downstairs seemed to be wide-eyed indie kids there for the first time and petrified of all the people asking them for pills. I can't imagine how little room there would have been in the main room, even the balcony was fairly packed!

I want to know who was playing in room 2 (? - the one where Vitalic wasn't) last, we went there after 2manydjs got too indie and it was insanely banging and fucked with my head a bit.

Photos might emerge at some point...

Get ready to party like it’s 1991 to classic
shoegazing sounds from the Velvets to the Valentines
to Ulrich Schnauss as the SONIC CATHEDRAL opens its
doors for worship on JOHN PEEL DAY, Thursday October
13. Appropriately, there’s a very rare live outing for
JIM REID, former frontman of Peel favourites The Jesus
And Mary Chain, plus one of the first UK appearances
from Australia’s THE MORNING AFTER GIRLS. On the decks
are THE TELESCOPES, who have promised some Peel
treats, and some very special SURPRISE GUESTS.

THE LEGION
348 OLD STREET
LONDON EC1

JIM REID (live)

they're doing nights in Brighton before then too - might check out the one on the 24th September.

I am half thinking of booking a flight over.

is anyone else up for magda/hawtin/villalobos on nov 19th? if not then i may have to ysi the hawtin/villalobos essential mix, as i find it hard to believe that anyone who's heard that wouldn't want to come along...
