Club News: Gimme Shelter! |
|
EC1 style-Mecca, Fabric will host a series of Shelter
parties next month, headlines by New York DJ Timmy Regisford. Shelter
the New York-based garage club has been running at the city's Vinyl
club for over a decade, with Regisford in charge.
Regisford plans to import the sound and soul of
Shelter to London with a collection of parties commencing on September
20. "I hope to build something where people can dance to music based
around songs and not just instrumentals. It's about the spirit,
feeling and vibe that we've managed to create in NY each week for
the last ten years," said Regisford.
"We are into real music, from African to jazz,
not just tracks - I hope that London people come out with an open
mind" he continued. Shelter London takes place at Fabric 77a Charterhouse
Street London EC1M 6HJ, from 9pm to 4am on September 20. Tickets
cost £10. We have a two pairs of tickets for the upcoming events
on September 20.
Just answer this simple question.

'Mr Subtlety' Slim snatches wax record - 13/08/01 |
|
Filmmakers on the shoot for the video to the Fatboy
Slim remix of Markus Nikolai's forthcoming single 'BUSHES' have
broken the world record for the most bikini waxes ever completed.
The shoot, which took place at the Topnotch Health club in Whiteleys
Porchester Gardens, brought tears to the eyes of 74 women (and two
men) in fours hours, shaving minutes of the world record.
Official judicators from the Guinness Book Of Records
stood by and watch the feat enter the history books. A press spokesperson
for Fatboy said: "The concept was genius, the process was agony,
but the results were stunning." Norman Cook's remix of Marcus Nikolai's
'Bushes' is released through Southern Fried Records on September
10.
