25th May @ Vibe Live (upstairs @ Vibe Bar, brick lane): Full Fat, Reptiles, Black Grass, Memory9 all LIVE + more tbc
Yeah, it don't get much better than bank holiday season in east London. Literally, it's the only summer we freakin get. Boom! But that's not what we mean. Especially around Brick Lane everything is just kicking off on these few days a year so we're going to cynically take advantage of these facts and put on a massive bastard of a party in the Vibe Lounge with Full Fat, Reptiles and Black Grass ALL LIVE. You can sit in the courtyard getting liquored up then rinse it out all night inside. Then you can lie in the park all Monday like a tramp in a bikini. Or maybe a sarong. If you're a girl.
Here's the biz…
Full Fat is a four piece that uses drums, guitar, synths and a turntable as the lead instrument. Compared to Rage Against the Machine, The Bays, and Daft Punk, the band cohesively moulds rock, electro, hip hop and metal into an awesome new sound. Full Fat are known for their incendiary live shows, great musicianship and unprecedented turntablism. Their ability to rock the crowd must be felt to be believed. Or you could just believe us.

Reptiles draw a straight line from the roots of hip hop to the captain's star log. They have the emotional impact like back in the day, yet leave you feeling you've just made one small head nod for man. Part of Vadim's Oneself collective, they are the perfect addition to this brazen night of bank hollyday dancefloor shaking.

Black Grass' sound, described as a "pantomime of styles" by Mex, is hip hop minded but not hip hop, edgy but not obscurely underground, covering territory from dusty funk and jazz to soul to party beats. Black Grass has gained acclaim across the board from both DJs and music fans and after twenty years, Mex has developed a reputation as one of the world's leading DJ's, admired as both a selector, a producer and a man of inimitable style. Tonight he comes at you with both a rapper and a vocalist, in blistering full live mode. Tonight they will be celebrating the Launch of the new album, 'Three', out soon on Catskills records. index -- MySpace.com - Black Grass - Brighton - Hip Hop / Funk / Soul - www.myspace.com/blackgrassmusic
Memory9, aka Gadi Sassoon, is Italy’s genre-defying, bass heavy, London-dwelling export. A sound artist strongly focused on live performance, Memory9's output takes such diverse shapes as to be regularly showcased in art galleries, on rave rigs and in world-class clubs alike. When commenting on Memory9's live sets, audiences and critics agree on a truly unique experience: a fragmented voyage between grimy slicks of bass and sharply structured mosaics of beats, boulders of sound reworked into swirling sound sculptures, his performances successfully paint some new kind of dancing murder of pop culture full of embedded viruses. Memory9 bridges the gap between the zen of electronic performance and the thrust of live playing thanks to unique control surfaces and homemade software, injecting the floor with his kaleidoscopic vision of music: expect to hear a unique mashup from beginning to end, expect it to surprise you with shards from myriad corners of the musical spectrum. That, and loads of bass.
