Slipped Disco’s new bi-monthly DJ and live club night, UFO, spins back into orbit with seminal guest DJ Justin Robertson dropping a trademark eclectic set alongside Milo Smee, co-founder of psychedelic acid funkers Chrome Hoof. They are joined by the critically adored My Toys Like Me playing live. Band of the moment Kan’t (an un-super group formed out of former members of They Came From The Stars I Saw Them, Les Hommes Du Train and Coco Electric) will bring their improvised set to the top floor, turning the BCH into a live dance floor. Guest DJ Sonny from Singapore (where he was a resident at the famed Zouk club), will be supplying deep house from his Mighty Rumble label, while resident DJs Ben Osborne, Horton Jupiter and DJ Sculpture will keep the night fresh with wigged out grooves.
Slipped Disco’s UFO draws from the original London prog club and looks outside the norm for inspiration, embracing the current crop of organic groove music, percussive house, cosmic techno, dancefloor rock and Funk b-lines and segueing them, in true prog spirit, into one ridiculously over-blown anthem.
“When we heard Slipped Disco was planning to resurrect the legendary UFO Club, our brains exploded.” (Eddy Lawrence, Time Out)
“Slipped Disco can be relied upon to organise a good party” (Spoonfed)
“The coolest parties in east London.” (ilikemusic blog)
“Whether penning features, currating Noise of Art projects or simply playing out, Ben Osborne likes to keep busy. Slipped Disco, his own night, has played a part in rescuing nights for everyone in need of somewhere to let their hair down.” (Flavourpill).
