World Unknown - Brixton - Friday 8th July 2011 After buying most of the back catalog from his Dissident label and finally catching a mind blowing set playing support to Chicago legend Marshall Jefferson at SOCIETY last Friday, we are relieved to hear it's only a week til we get to witness some more vinyl dance floor destruction courtesy of the one and only Andy Blake. This Friday sees the launch party for World Unknown, a new vinyl label attached to the monthly happening sharing its name. One of Brixton's best kept sonic secrets, [...]

It's March already, but it is with great pleasure that I can share the first SSSSOUNDTRACK of the year with you, the 10th edition so far and a very special one it is! On decks is legend Andy Blake; Andy was once upon a time the captain of the good ship Dissident , a heavily armoured pirate vessel that he deliberately dashed upon the rocks a while back when he woke up one morning and realised he was bored with it and had better pack it in before everyone else decided they were too. 'Live fast, die young, [...]

Photo by Cassie Clarke Legendary Children is a blog that has been peeking my interest for a while now, basically because of its preference to Chicago/Acid House, New Beat, etc., a preference in music that isn't often to be found in blogs.

Legendary Children seems to be the go-to place for all things 101, 303, 808 and 909. Having survived their first year, they're now planning what looks likely to be a party of epic proportions with Body Hammer and World Unknown lynch-pin Joe Hart . 'Hot Mix Vol. 4' - recorded with two turntables, one mixer and a stack of vinyl - by in-house dj Prince Pac should get you warmed up nicely. Legendary Children - Hot Mix Vol. 4 [...]

For those of you that missed Joe Hart's incredible set at our Defunkt night last month, here's a taster of what was on offer. A set of synth wave, new beat, EBM and acid that worked the room into a dirty, writhing sweat.
