Gold Teeth London
Friday, 5th July 2013
Jamm, 261 Brixton Road, Brixton, SW9 6LH
The mind blowing shenanigans that come with Gold Teeth make this a party that flips the mind numbing regularity of your average club night and brings a vibe that has taken Brixton Jamm to the edge of collapse as the patrons swing from the rafters and hang from the lights

Seeing is believing!

The guys from Gold Teeth have again spoken!

"The over-hyped and anticlimactic summer is finally upon us

The rich kids are about embark on four different holidays to the far flung corners of the world - all on Daddy's credit card; whilst the rest of us normal folk are having to think about how the hell we're going to pay the eye watering Zone 57 rent and still manage to eat, let alone afford any alcoholic beverages

All the plans you've made to have BBQs at Pollyanna's mansion in Cuntshire are going to be a complete wash out

England are going to retain the Ashes in a boring and predictable series; and that girl you've been crushing on all year is going to have photos, all over Facebook, of her hanging off a tanned brainless bicep in Croatia - just to add an extra dimension of despair to your dour London days

So here's to three months of disappointing weather, mind numbing boredom, and over priced festivals

I can't fucking wait for September, when any optimistic hope of a few consecutive days of warm weather has finally been quashed."

Still looking forward to the summer? Well don't waste it, get down to Gold Teeth for some mayhem of the finest order

RvS & East Village present...Kyodai
Saturday, 20th July 2013
East Village, 89 Great Eastern Street, Hoxton and Shoreditch, EC2A 3HX
RvS and East Village are very proud to present their special guests Kyodai on Saturday 20th July with support from Asadinho, Paul Soul and inhouse resident Stuart Patterson

BASEMENT: A massive line up taking over the basement and offering seriously good underground house music

The brilliant Spanish duo, with the Japanese name, Kyodai, fly in from Berlin to headline alongside RvS's own Asadinho and Paul Soul while Stuart Patterson represents East Village

LOUNGE: Upstairs doesn't pull any punches either as the disco, soul and funk is provided by Diesel, Dave Jarvis, Tim Keenoy and Si Kurrage

KYODAIKYODAI means brothers in Japanese and that's about as good a clue as you're getting as to who these two producers are, suffice to say they regularly release under a variety of different names for labels such as Compost, Odori and Lovemonk

For their work under different monikers the sibling producer duo gained respect from musical heavy weights like Masters At Works, Gilles Peterson and Jimpster

Now with their new project KYODAI they have had a strong run of releases starting with their debut on Freerange Records in 2011

This EP 'Mi Rumba‘ must have impressed a lot of people such as Kerri Chandler and Nicolas Matar (Cielo) as they went on to release their follow up EP 'Breaking‘ for mad mats‘ and Tooli‘s blossoming Local Talk label

This one reached the charts on Juno Download's Biggest Deep House Tracks Of 2012 as well as the Gilles Peterson‘s 'An All Winners Show‘. Further releases in 2012 were 'Never Know‘ (Pokerflat), 'Sex Affair‘ (Room Control) and 'La Luz‘ (Freerange) to name a few

Stay tuned as they have a lot of new stuff in the pipeline for 2013 including their debut album coming out soon on Local Talk.

LOUNGE: Plus upstairs in the lounge Big Stuff with Femi Fem and Barrie K Sharpe playing 70's funk with a touch of soul, reggae and disco.

Petulant Penguin presents... Pest / Jouis
Friday 14th June 2013
This is going to be an amazing night!

Pest have toured extensively as a headline act across the UK and Europe, as well as supporting artists including Nitin Sawhney, DJ Food, Soweto Kinch and Roni Size to name a few. With two previous acclaimed album releases through Ninjatune, Pest are always developing, always writing, and may often be found lurking round a corner ready to say “Boo!” to the obvious.

Jouis are a 5-piece band based in Brighton on the South Coast of England. They lace psychedelic progressive jazz with rhythmic and melodic experimentation, traveling to as far as they can reach in search of like-minded people to share their music, thoughts and good vibes with.
Jouis is a French word roughly translated as 'to be enjoyed' (derived from 'Jouissance'), a philosophy the band has upheld since its inception.

If this isn't enough for you there's also powerful foot stomping madness from 'The Ali Warren Band' and the superb voice of Jocie Juritz.

All tickets for this gig allow you entrance to the club night at Cargo that follows.
