word up, B-boys und B-girls:
yr summer underground starts HERE.
IT CAME FROM THE SEA
SAT 06 MAY * B'LO * £6/5 * 11-3
FIRST X OF A SUMMER FLING
ok, so the news is out – the ICFTHS home for the summer months will be everyone's favourite seaside batcave, B'Lo. like we said last time, we heart the Sussex Arts, and would've loved to stay but in the end it was all about the limiter – people (that's YOU) were forever asking us
to turn it up and we couldn't – it was seriously no fun.
so, if you've been along to ICFTHS any time in the last few months and been underwhelmed by music levels not unlike a distant wake, a car stereo – three – cars – down – this is yr chance to get re-acquainted with the kick/nik soundsystem maxxxing out the volume and giving you
music you can feel (like, in yr bones and hollow cavities). which is to say, BASS is making a comeback.
ICFTHS/MAY is the long-awaited, much-requested return to the high-intensity experience the club was famous for before as it exploits the B'Lo's basement scene to go hardcore on the dancefloor. furthermore: from this month on, we're opening and closing later (11-3 instead of 10-2) to better suit Brighton's post-licensing lawless wilderness.
all the stuff you know and luff about ICFTHS will make the cut: dogbowls full of sweets? check. slides by artists somewhere over the dancefloor? yes. LED with troubling sub-textual messages? affirmative. masses of artificial flowers to turn the deejay booth into a window box (complete with dancing gnomes)? you know it. and, 'cause we want to mark the change and make the venue our own, we can giddily announce we've also invested in a REALLY BIG STROBE. stop-motion disco GO!

ps: those who can shd and must also attend this Friday's The Do, at the Core Club – 10-3 £5/4 – all profits to Threshold (www.thresholdwomen.org.uk) and – with a giddy pantheon of noisenik/indie deejays bringing the pain (plus a free zine) – the pleasure is all yrs.
pps: …and yes, the rumours are correct, ICFTHS will be a
Brighton/London affair from June onwards. we go forth in yr name to conquer the decadent feebs of the so-called capital. more details next month. |
