FEATURED EVENT
Release the Beast
Release the Beast rumbles onwards, an insatiable cannonball of primal dancing that sweeps us away from whatever it is our technological devices were trying to tell us a minute ago. Something about an email from the boss?… nevermind, there is dancing to be done.
DJs Brian Blackout & Doctor Mister will get down and dirty, rough and ready, and go toe to toe with the perils of modern life. The playlist will be teeming with wanton funk, grimy soul, pitiless rock + muscly-armed disco. All that can stop it is some vigorous shaking by you and your friends. You’re our only hope. Be warned.
Friday June 5th
11pm til 4am
NO COVER
DJs…
BRIAN BLACKOUT (YDH2S, Head On)

DOCTOR MISTER (Feeling Gloomy)
