A night of clubbing is as much about the music you want to hear as it is the experience you hope to get out of it. Whilst there are endless opportunities to don your best threads and brave the night buses to see and be seen, we prefer to come as we are, get sweaty and get down. With their irresistible selection of post-punk and electro classics and obscurities, Our Disco ticks all our......

We first heard of Uptight earlier this week when the great Retro To Go blog mentioned it. Checking it out, the music policy sounded great, and the clubnight is celebrating it's 7th birthday this weekend so if there's ever a time to try it out, this Saturday would be it! We took 5 with DJ and promoter Wayne Gooderham. When and why did you set Uptight up? Uptight was born in the summer of......

"Non Stop Neurotic Cabaret" is a good tagline to attract our interest but calling a club Big Sexy Land? Well the name enough has put a few of our friends off coming to this great night at The Phoenix on Cavendish Square, merely because they thought we were taking them to a dodgy strip club. That is not the case. Instead it's a monthly club night held in both London and Manchester set up......

This year’s Wireless festival kicks off in style on Thursday for their third year in the centre of the capital at Hyde Park. Four days of quality music from big bands you know and love, and plenty of bands you won’t know but can grow to love.

After a comment yesterday saying Londonist was a bit biased towards being maybe too cool for school and rock focused with their top choices of the year, I say HOLD YOUR HORSES. It’s time for me. I'm sparkly, shiny and hate Coldplay, Keane, and the dreary sleep inducing song writers of 2005. No doubt I will get lots of comments telling me that most of my likes aren't proper music. Bite me. Top Ten......

Last week, we wore ourselves out so much on Thursday night with JD Samson that we were disappointingly ill the rest of the weekend, and the shoes didn't get put to their full potential. There doesn't seem to be too much exciting new fun to be had this weekend, but if we do go out, these will probably be the places. Tonight we're torn between 2 very cool nights. If you're south of the river,......
