MUSIC. NIGHTLIFE. CULTURAL RIOTS. LONDON TINGS. BY KATE HUTCHINSON.
A dressed-up clubber, as part of the Noughtie Nightlife exhibition © Antony Price Clubbing photography exhibition Noughtie Nightlife at Rich Mix launched this Thursday at Rich Mix. It features snaps from across the noughties of the capital’s most creative, kaleidoscopic and fashionista clubbers from the likes of Billa Baldwin, We Know What You Did Last [...]
He may look like your Bacardi Breezer-swilling 15-year-old bruv, but this is actually Geeneus, one of the firebrands behind legendary (and bloody brilliant) London underground radio station Rinse FM. I don’t know why I’ve got into the habit of interviewing sullen dance music nerdos lately, but there you have it. Maybe it’s their musk. Anyway, [...]
Drum ’n’ bass’s brightest spark, Sub Focus, headlined Time Out Live‘s latest Nite Sessions club night at East Village last Friday. Needless to say, he tore the Shoreditch club a new earhole – albeit a very blokey, very bolshy earhole. Since Ram Records boss Andy C tracked him down after being handed a demo tape [...]
You can get the abridged version of this interview in Time Out this week, but to read it in full, check it after the jump. DJ History on the record player revolutionaries Some DJs are more than just nerdy looking blokes flipping records on and off some decks. Or, these days, should we say: more [...]

I’m not having the best of days: angry emails from jumped-up and ungrateful promoters; listings system crashing on deadline day, that sort of thing. But I’m really looking forward to sinking some serious Mojito-age at East Village tonight. I’ve picked some DJs. We’ve put them on. And I think they’re rather ruddy brilliant. So I [...]
This is a rubbish scan. I blame Jimi Mistry wot scanned it. But I wrote a piece on different DJs doing different nice green things for the environment in a recent issue of Time Out. We called them: eco DJs (oooooh, aaaah). It was up the front of the magazine, where real people can see [...]
I don’t really ‘do’ football. I mean, I love to play and run around and kick people, but not many other people like it when I try. And so, in light of the World Cup starting this week, I thought I’d do a li’l swot up on something not-really-football-related in Time Out, but definitely related [...]
Oops! Time Out Live and I fused our best squishy parts and a little party came out. We’re putting on a jumbo club night at East Village on Friday May 7 for Shoreditch coolsters who want some more bass for their buck. Oh, and there’s plenty of bang too: party Tron, DJ Yoda, is working [...]
