Need a decent area, decent size, decent housemate on a decent budget.

South Landan, hugemungous room, Party girl flatmate for next to nothing...

X PLUR 

what did you spray?

Ever admired the art form that many a misunderstanding 'authority' disapprove of? The skill that takes not only time and effort but deep thought emitted from the artist's heart itself? Graffiti is (mostly) a true representation of a talented expression of self.

Enter: Bristolian based Weapon Of Choice (WOC)

These guys are a perfect example of exactly why, for years, I've envied those individuals who are so able of skillfully envisioning, shading, blending, outlining exactly what intuitively escapes their capable hands.

tal·ent

[tal-uh-nt]

–noun

1. a special natural ability or aptitude: a talent for drawing.

2. a capacity for achievement or success; ability: young men of talent.

So Cheba will be taking time out from his art gallery & joining Nikil in painting live at Shifted for us!! Prepare to be stuck in the same spot, Chicken and Slush Puppy in hand, gawping ;) 

and the winner is....

OK so i've sifted through all the brilliant mixes I received and let me tell you it was tough!!!!! 

But we've got it! and KNOW he's gona do us and everyone VERY proud.... the winner is...

Synamatix !!

He wowed us with the carefully precise manner of combining party sounds with deeper beats, something for everyone, which fits perfectly with the Shifted concept!! 

Check one of his winning mixes out here

Join Synamatix and the rest of the guys at Brixton Jamm on 12th June 2010 - Flyer will be posted in the next 48 hours!! 

Shift happens! sweeeeeeeeeeet X

WOWZER

Oh Em Gee

I've just confirmed that we'll be well fed and hydrated at Shifted!!

Join us and revel in the delight that is a JERK CHICKEN BBQ with nothing less than ALCOHOLIC SLUSH PUPPIES (Or sober ones for the lovely designated drivers among us) to wash it down with!!!

I don't know about you but I still go loopy when I spy that white doggy donning the beanie in those few and far between beautiful shopkeeper's random shops, absolute L O V E for the retro goodness <3

Links for your electronic diary...

Hurrah!

SHIFTED will become reality on Friday 11th June when we collaborate with the almighty DUB PACK at Brixton Jamm.

I'm in the midst of securing all sorts of freebies and entertainment for the night to give to you guys!! I'll post about them as and when confirmed!!

We've also decided to dissociate from the 'Corporate' brainstorm, COP, AOB, ASAP way of running and instead of there being a cold 'us &amp; you' situation, it's important, for the good of humanity (the part that soley relies on fun-filled frolics) that everyone's involved.

Cast your mind back skipping the work filled days and TV filled evenings, SURELY your most memorable night out wasn't one where you sat in the corner, mute with just a bottle of water for company (although saying that, I'm sure there are a few memorable nights featuring that scenario for some of you ;)) No, the amazing memorable nights are generally ones where you feel involved. Not just included but a hugely (important) cog in the mass of harmonising vibration among those present. Comfort yet excitement. Connection yet independence. Am I waffling? Let's pull it back (one time).

Typically those aged 25+ will tell you (without much prompting) how 'friendly' everyone was when they used to go raving, sharing water bottles, cigarettes, life stories, coming home with 25 new phone numbers stored in their Nokia 5110's complementing the flashing aerials. They'd dance with strangers, hug the bar staff and be filled with freedom to enjoy the music, the experience without stushness, attitude or the 'have you got a pound?' 'trick'

That's what I want!! love Princess Nikki, aged 24. =) We're starting Shifted to bring enjoyment, opportunity and sheer childish fun to anyone involved, I need you guys!

This is the first task of the treasure hunt I'm asking for help with:

Meet...

?

The amazingly talented (and very witty) Nick Deakin designed this currently somewhat banana resembling little guy to represent Shifted. Fun, arty and a blatent geek-chic-swagger about him but he needs a name, any ideas? 

HE NEEDS A NAME!! 

help a homegirl out..? =) whoever names him will have their name +1 on the guestlist for Shifted @ Brixton Jamm, 11th June. e-mail me!  

Peassss, neeki X

wow I do waffle

Introducing...!!

Some of you may be familiar with him already, my extremely influential business partner, MC Crazy D "Woah woah woah!"

If you do know of him, you'll know that Crazy has A HELLOVALOT of hugemungous parties under his heavyweight dubist belt, he certainly knows how to have a good time, therefore, both D and I are dead set on organising this party that's worth raving to your grandkids about in an 'in my day we KNEW how to party' fashion.

We both know how important the venue is: are the sounds crisp? nice outside space for the smokers? seats for the intellectual/lazy types and do they provide delboy umbrellas with the drinks? All are key points so we had to be sure that we picked the right place, comfortable yet exciting, friendly yet party vibes, cool and in the right location.
 

'Struck gold' is certainly the most apt term here.

Introducing: Brixton Jamm. Perfect.

Outside space, amazing size in and out, banging sound system, seats, toilet facilities that don't require a snorkel to enter, 2 rooms and an amazing vibe, trendy with a hint of class served up with a sprig of swagger. Lovely.

No pink cocktail umbrellas though? I'll bring some if the demand's there, although, I'm sure your attention will be preoccupied once you get there.

On another note, please could you help me out? I've been reminiscing over old penny sweets that are no longer available, when penny sweets actually cost 1p? Please drop me a line with your faves on there, so far I've come up with:

Lovage! =) X

So excited!!! I can reveal the date for your diary and a concept to shake your tic tacs VERY soon!! =D

Oh hai

So... Thought I'd start a blog. Late with the trends again, that's me. So far behind I'm bringing it back through the cycle 10 years down the line but let's not worry about that.

Shift happened.. Always has, always will, especially now. I won't bore you with my intense love for that play on words involving theories of collective consciousness and human evolution, nope, I'll keep it simple. 'Shifted' is an event I'm currently organising. Literally, currently. I only came up with the name and tagline last night along with a concept I feel is really going to whisk up your mundane thoughts of clubnights and their pigeon-holed attendees.

For a while I've wanted something different from my nights out. I'm a 'been there, done that, got the wristband to prove it' kind of girl when it comes to Drum'n'Bass & Dubstep events and whilst I still hold both genres close to my heart and ipod hand I've started to want to explore other musical wonders recently. Maybe that's a sign of growing up or maybe it's a sign of the new age of experimental eclectic music listeners?

It's apparent throughout the 'mainstream' charts, 'pop' music is filled with tons of audible goodies. Dance, Rock, 'Indie', R'n'B, Hippity Hop, Electro... etc etc on and on... Which shows the vast taste the youngsters of today are welcoming with open mittens, my 14 year old sisters wall is occupied by a 'MCR' (My Chemical Romance) poster yet she educates me on Miley Cyrus and Chipmunk.

So... Of course we will always need the die hard mono/duo genre nights, to keep the 'scenes' as strong as they are but through various chats and opinion offerings between me and my friends, I feel we need some mash up, house party style events going down, something and everything for everyone. Various genres under the same roof. Cheese clubs do it week in week out but I'm not talking diabolical 'mixing' of weak (no offence, Souljaboy) rinsed tunes from Kiss 100's 'played 3million times a day' playlist, I mean, each hour you're treated to a set which, in it's own right is worthy of a main slot in Fabric or Matter no matter what style is being served.

I'd be ignorant to say that this beautiful concept isn't already taking place at impressive nights such as Urban Nerds, those guys know how to throw a party but I'm adding a spin to it, I won't let the feline friend out of the bag yet but I want to help you recapture that flutterby feeling you used to experience on your excitable journey in to what you know is going to be a night to remember forever.

Over the coming weeks I'll be updating the progress on what will hopefully be an amazing, widely obtainable experience you'll want to miss Eastenders for.
