Love Music Hate Racism… We at Planet Notion like the ethos; so too Hyponik. Hence why they’re supporting this summer’s annual ‘Love Music Hate Racism’ celebrations with a night of (and we quote) “Bass-driven tom-foolery” at Shoreditch venue Herbal.
The event, taking place on Saturday 19th, will host two rooms; one with ‘Rebel Bass Mayhem’ and the other with ‘Dutt and Poom Reggae Vibes’. Kind of speaks for itself really…
There’ll be a little something to float everyone’s boat, with tunes bridging the gap between indie, crunk, dubstep, techno, acid, breakcore, and so on and so forth; all backed-up by some heavy, Heavy bass! We like to think of it as a buffet. If you don’t like the Chicken Casserole there’s always the Lamb Dhansak. And if you don’t like House, you’ve always got dubstep to fall back on… Cheers God.
The formidable Kid Twist’s latest addition, Drums of Death, has had tails wagging and cocks rising for sometime now; the lone Greco-Roman blends the kind of crunk-spunked electro that leaves one pooing their pants with fear and wetting themselves with joy in equal measure.
A generous dollop of dub will be supplied by Dub Police stable-mate Caspa, whilst DJ Reso will rummage into a mixed-bag of drum ‘n’ bass, dub, and techno and much revered London producer, Mowgli, will be delving into his usual house/hip hop/electro hybrids.
Room2 welcomes some very, very, extremely, extremely special DJs. Attendees can expect an eclectic mix of current classics, future classics, past classics, and damn right forgotten classics from Don Letts, the man responsible for bridging a gap between punk and reggae in the 70s. And Howie B, who remains one of the biggest names on the dub circuit, will be drawing on his production skills for the likes of Bjork, Tricky, and 'political activists' (sic) U2. Rootsteady and Friends will supply support…
In the words of Akabusi: AWOOGA! AWOOGA! AWOOGA! It's a good'n!!!
