World Unknown 18th Dec

You know the score by now.

Joe Hart, Andy Blake and Gold Blood (live), a railway arch, a crisp sounding system, the best tracks in London and the right sort of crowd.

Fully endorsed.

The Rundown...

Well, I seem to have eventually surfaced from the land of the dead after a busy weekend.

World unknown delivered, without a doubt, and further cemented its place as the top night in London, with the only slight blip being the live set from radical majik, which consisted of boring laptop tracks and an inaudible bass guitar.

However, it was barely noticeable in between Joe Hart and Andy Blake destroying the floor with all sorts of chicago house, techno, acid and italo.

This night is just amazing music, great people and phenomenal sound.

It all goes together to make it a cracking party. Pictures to follow.

DMZ however was somewhat lacking. Although Goth Trad delivered a healthy dose of live bass, sporadically sprinkled with bleepy Mario sounds and massive amounts of reverb, everyone else was either just ok or quite boring.

Kryptic Minds could have brought more interesting material and it feels like we've all seen DMZ and Loefah knock out the same kind of stuff every two months.

Come on Mala...pull your socks up...where's the live set?

World Unknown 06th Nov

This Friday another instalment of the unassuming World Unknown goes back to South London, ran by one of the residents of BLOC weekend, Mr Joe Hart.

Playing together with Andy Blake of Dissident records, these railway arch parties in Brixton are a welcome regression, harking back (I can only imagine) to the days of warehouse raves and smiley faces painted on dungarees.

It's straight chicago house, cold wave, italo and electro tracks from dusk till dawn. A massive selection of music that it's hard to find anywhere in London and all for only a fiver.

The problem with these semi-legal parties, more often than not, is the sound quality, but the World Unknown system packs a heavy punch.

The sound is immense, the price tag is unquestionable and the crowd are the perfect blend of unpretentious and ready for commital.

If you checked this out last month you will not want to miss it, and if last month passed you by, don't let it this time.
