Looking at the highlights of Friday's experimental offering at Concrete and Glass - Lykke Li, Wildbirds and Peacedrums, Telepathe, TV On the Radio - the latter stood out tenfold in terms of grandeur and sweaty adoration, which probably explained why the population of E1 trudged in a steady stream towards Cargo from early evening. A pleasant buzz was around the creative hub that is Shoreditch, people drifting from venue to venue in the crisp......

Love your pop music? We've got 2 pairs of tickets up for grabs for tonight's Wonky Pop clubnight at Cargo in Shoreditch. Although Annie was due to headline, illness has forced her to pull out, but she's replaced by the awesome London girl Ebony Bones. It's an all star cast with The Clik Clik and Helsoise and The Savoir Faire also playing live while Richard X, Alphabeat and Popjustice DJ. First two to email londonist.music@gmail.com......

There aren't many concept albums about the lives of rad 80s car designers. And there are even less that are the brainchild of a Welsh psychedelic bard and an American avant-garde hip-hop twiddler, and feature a podgy sex-obsessive on guest vocals. Which is one way of saying that Neon Neon's gleaming 'Stainless Style' is a pretty unlikely record. "It's a biographical show," explains a well-groomed Gruff Rhys, usually of Super Furry Animals. Tonight each......

If you've happily bounced around to Super Furry Animals hits over the last 15 years, you were probably a bit wowed by the sleek production of Neon Neon, a joint project between Gruff Rhys and eclectic bleepster Boom Bip. They'll be popping up at Wireless on Saturday, but if you fancy catching them do a full live gig, they'll do one of their first UK performances at Cargo on Sunday complete with guest stars Har......

And the livin’ is easy: the weather’s been divine, and summer is here at last. There is the compulsion to spend every possible moment outdoors (Pimms preferably in hand), as it’s London after all and you never know when the good meteorological fortune will end. To that end, welcome to an al-fresco themed London On The Cheap week – get out there and take proper advantage of the next week of forecasted warmth and......

This Sunday, rap fans will pay their respect to late hip-hop producer J-Dilla at Cargo in Shoreditch. DJs including Shortee Blitz, Marc Mac and DJ Spin Doctor will be bumping favourites from Dilla's back catalogue in an event held to honour his life and legacy. Born James Yancey, and also known as Jay Dee, Dilla was the "producer's producer": feted by the likes of Kanye and Pharrell, he was one of the most influential......

"Y'all are making Brighton seem like where the party's at", yells DJ Big Whiz from behind the decks. The roar of protest from the crowd, packed tightly underneath Cargo's Victorian arches so movement is reduced to peristalsis-like shuffles, is the desired response: Londoners don't take well to comparisons with our southern cousin. As his DJ riles the crowd, Definitive Jux rapper Aesop Rock lounges across the stage with a Cheshire-cat grin. On the second......
