In an underground ex-toilet in Shepherds Bush, there’s a funky revolution going on. With live bands and DJs on the night, unpretentious, non-exclusive, and always full of happy people, Cover Up does things properly. Like Jazzy B says, “a happy face, a thumping bass, for a loving race. ”
New Rising
Guilford based band with totally topping skills. Get on over to their Myspace to have a listen and you’ll see what I mean, now get to Ginglik by 9.30, or you’ll miss them, and then you’ll be sorry.

Live Funk, Brasilian, Soul and straight-up party tunes. The Fontanas always get double-funky in the place, inspiring waves and ripples of good-footing and if we’re honest, straight-up lust in the delirious crowd. Freshness.

Mixes up salsa with Funk, hip hop with samba, reggae with afro beat, Bovril with peanut butter on granary bread. Wholesome and delicious. Mmmmmmmm!
www.charlieinman.comDJ Ben Mommaflippin’ M
If you enjoyed last month’s early-90’s hip hop reminiscing, we’ve got another old school treat up our sleeves in the shape of Ben Mommaflippin’ M. Camouflaged as a saggy-trousered East-London beardy, this man has a sack so bulging with good old-fashioned breakbeat goodness you half expect the ragga twins to stick their funny little heads up out of it when he unzips it and shout “pi-li-pi-li-pi-lan woooooe – oiiiiiiiiii!”
