Review: Buraka Som Sistema ‘Restless’
by Tom on Nov.05, 2009, under Reviews
For those who of you who read the AngelBreaks blog regularly you will know how big a fan I am of Lisbon’s Buraka Som Sistema. For those of you who don’t, you are in for a real treat because having barely recovered from their very excellent album, Black Diamond, and a summer of critically acclaimed sensory overloading live shows, they have only gone and dropped a gem of a single on us. Your education can start here.
Bugged Out! 15th Birthday @ Fire, Vauxhall - Review
by Tom on Oct.15, 2009, under Events, Reviews
On Saturday 10th October the cavernous London club, Fire, opened its doors to Bugged Out!’s 15th Birthday, a stellar cast of world class DJs and 1500+ revellers, to celebrate the 15th birthday of this behemoth club night. And in Erol Alken, Feadz, Justin Robertson and Brodinski, they were armed to the teeth with some of the most fearsome exponents of the clubbing zeitgeist.
Underworld - Pretty spry for old men!
by Adam on Sep.01, 2009, under Downloadables, Events, Reviews
Visited Portugal a couple of weeks ago and decided to drop by Creamfields 2009 (Algarve Edition). This is not the 3 days extravaganza we’re treated to in England, rather a one night event. This featured Underworld as headliners on the main stage as well as the excellent Junior Boys, and Turbo Records ran a massive tent featuring luminaries such as Proxy, Tiga, Riton and Zombie Nation. I managed to get a pretty sweet recording of ‘Born Slippy’, which you can see below, and let me tell you - you ain’t experienced Riton until you’ve experienced him surrounded by a bunch of sweaty Portuguese guys. (Obrigado!)
Club review: Hidden Pleasures: Crisis @ Cargo
by Sofi on Jun.23, 2009, under Events, Reviews
Given the clandestine tone of this gig, I did feel like I was participating in a spoiling night of surreptitious gluttony, lapping up Britain’s hottest dance and D n B acts of which I, and the 100-strong crowd, left Cargo coyly licking our bass-smattered chops.
What’s more, given the sparse number of spectators and the whole of Cargo to romp around in, the acts also felt free to chill and mix with us particularly fortunate punters, of which I have to admit that the MC from Chase + Status is exceptionally charming.
