Everyone with a haircut and CDJs has got on this and when there’s no elbow space in the main room it’s probably a good time to leave.»
Venues The indefinite hiatus of the Freebutt as a music venue proper has been a cause of much dismay among gig-goers in town – and rightly so. During their relatively short time in charge the management has done a wholesale refurbishment while keeping »
On Subiza, Delorean come tantalizingly close to producing an instantly-iconic album.»
Over three albums Lidell's rich, self-assured voice has reigned, reaching a rare type of ownership not often heard in a white British soul singer. His schtick is worth all the anguish and the passion so intrinsic to this rhythm and blues music - he sings like this because he can.»
The second installment from our Brighton scribe in our continuing series of local scene guides...»
His method could never be accused of being frivilous, but One One does seem to suffer from a lack of realization.»
At 20 songs Crookers debut LP is overwhelmed by shameless club pap straight out of a bad Kiss mix. »
Our first local scene report, gig guide and preview from our DiSser in Brighton...»
It might not rank alongside Bob Dylan going electric – the humid cavern of Jam is a long way from the Newport Folk Festival and »

American Gangster was the last time we saw the real Jay-Z – soulful, lyrically adept, his narrative streak reborn with a newfound alter ego – but here he is back to treading water. »
September is upon us and that means festival season is as good as over. Thank goodness then, for Rob Da Bank and his space-themed Bestival, a one last hurrah and glorious standout in a dizzying summer calendar. There's even the threat of sun this year. B»
Dante Terrell Smith seemed to have lost all interest in the rap game. Though his acting career could never be considered a vanity »
DiS popped along to the Simian Mobile Disco Temporary Pleasures album launch for a rather unusual experience...»
Whether it’s Afrika Bambaataa bringing Kraftwerk to the New York ghetto, or Kanye West sampling Daft Punk for the Chicago club s»
