Monday 31st December
We, LIke You New Years Eve are always humdingers and this year will be no different, the line up is becoming big, very big.
The mighty magnificant King of Funk, BBC Radio 6’s maestro Mr Craig Charles is bringing his trunk of smashers along to what can only be described as “the only place to be” this New Year’s Eve – we are going to rip up 2012 and throw ourselves head first into 2013
And there’s more…
The Correspondents - Mr Bruce and Chucks find it difficult to explain exactly what music they make. Into the mixing pot Chucks throws a history of dance music from Blues to Jazz, Electro to Dubstep to Drum’n’Bass, then back again. Seasoned with Mr Bruce’s vocals depicting the trials and errors of Love, Lust and Loss and there you have a menu to be devoured.
Their live shows explode the structure of a DJ/MC set up w
ith Chucks hurling tracks at the audience and Mr Bruce in fully flamboyant costume whipping them into a frenzy with high speed scatting and incredulous dance moves. And last festival season saw them on main stages with a brass section, an infra-red sensored light box together with the trusty conveyor belt dance platform. This has earned them The Telegraph’s Top Ten Highlights of Glastonbury two years in a row.
Smoove and Turrell - The lads have gone from strength to strength on the UK scene and across Europe. Previous to their album being snapped up by Jalapeno Records they had released a limited 7” single “I can’t give you up” on the German label “Club Tikka”. The single soon found itself in a bidding frenzy on Ebay with copies reaching a startling £166, surely not for a new 7” I hear you cry!
“The Craig Charles Funk & Soul Show” (BBC Radio 6) put pen to paper to write the sleeve notes for the album “Antique Soul” and also invited the whole band down to Manchester to perform a live session on his BBC6 Radio show. It doesn’t just stop there the boys then played a live set on “The Janice Long Show” (BBC Radio 2) and on the legendary Clive Anderson “Loose Ends Show” (BBC Radio 4). To top it all off the boys also won "single of the week" twice on Marc Radcliff’s BBC 2 Radio Show.
Beats In Abundance – the sexy duo consistently deliver fun-filled party banging sets and this occasion will be no different.
Rumour has it that Novice of Genius may be making a rare appearance on the ones and twos
The basement will be hosted by Livin' Proof, London's finest hip-hop crew. In an epic 2012, that saw the night and DJ collective grow to new-found heights, the world paid attention as they put on events with the likes of ASAP Rocky, Danny Brown, Hudson Mohawke and Dom Kennedy. They round-up the year with their final party in the Kingpin Suite. With their own Livin' Proof soundsystem being brought in, the line-up of DJ Rags, Snips, Khalil, Budgie and host MC - The Last Skeptik; they will be bringing in the new year with the finest selection of hip-hop beats.
