10) Studio 54 Tribute

6th March

What: Electric Boogie returns to farewell the summer with a disco extravaganza. This time you can expect even more decorations & disco balls and a venue fully decked out like the legendary Studio 54! This will be the ultimate party for fans of ABBA, Earth Wind & Fire, Prince, and all round disco music from the 70’s & 80’s!

Why: Celebrate the beloved era before we realised nearly everyone in the music industry, living or dead, was some kind of sex pest.

8) WeLove #242

6th March

What: Dance and share the love for house and techno with Naples-born deep house experimental DJ Pako, and techno spinners Notjosh & Atomicaaron, Mo’funk The DJ and Chriss Mattò.

Why: With all the historic romance and comparative contemporary political chaos surrounding Italy, it is somewhat of a comfort that they still manage to pump out the same universal breed of EDM DJs as every other country.

7) General Levy (Live)

5th March

What: Ragga deejay General Levy has been iconic in the UK’s urban music scene since the late 80s and early 90s, serving his apprenticeship on the local sound system circuit in the mid to late 80s, then graduating to become a professional recording artist in the early 90s. This kick-started a mainstream career that has seen his music feature in cult movies like Ali G Indahouse, bringing General Levy to new audiences worldwide. Experience him live.

Why: Because the one thing on everyone’s mind when sitting through a movie length version of a half-arsed played-out Sacha Baron Cohen character is, “This soundtrack is genius“.

6) Something Else: Norm De Plume

7th March

What: This week, fresh off a brand spanking new EP released on Jimpster’s Delusions of Grandeur label, Norm De Plume will be sending some dubby house, hazy disco, and whatever else he’s packed in his bag through 77’s cranking sound system. Having collected records for over 20 years, boasting an impressive back catalogue of EP’s and remixes for the likes of Tornado Wallace and Ben La Desh, as well as running his own vinyl-only label – Plumage – he’s got a banger in stall for peak time this Saturday.

Why: A middle-aged guy named Norm is reaching in his bag and pulling out some old bangers just for you.
