Citinite * LuckyMe 12thNov



A bit last minute, but check this party tomorrow at The Lightbox in Vauxhaull

On the live front, from the Citinite camp we have Jimmy Edgar, Dam Funk and Gosub , and representing Luckyme a rare chance to see Rustie live in London.

DJ support is coming from Kode9, Hudson Mo and Ikonika.

Citinite was formed in 2003 and was inspired by the pioneers of electro funk, like Egyptian Lover and John Davis. It aims and has added an array of new artists who continue to take risks and innovate, injecting pure funk back into electronic music.

Luckyme/Music.Art.Parties began in 2002 when a group of musicians wanted to make hip hop in a place that was not on the map for hip hop, namely, Glasgow. They started putting parties on in Glasgow School of Art and Stereo, getting caught in a mixing pot of music going on at the time (techno, jazz, rock etc...)

In 2007 they began running as a label, collective and got their website up and running. Their nameless hip hop/electronic beats have become a global brand and catapulted the artists onto the world stage.

As per there website, expect a genre born out of the love of primary influence, they are there, "...too f*** with genres."

On the night expect retro sounding, body rocking electro and sickening synth lines from the man Jimmy Edgar. Dam Funk will be putting you on the slow jams to make you missus melt with Gosub grinding your minds with fast and funky ghetto tech.

Luckyme's Rustie will be holding it down on the live front providing everything from off hilter wonkiness to his own brand of down and dirty grime overlaid with screaming digital scrapes and voices.

Obviously Kode9, Ikonika and Hudson Mo will no doubt dip into their extensive vaults to pull out everything and anything to make a crowd move.

At £15 for so much musical delights, it can't be beat
