Headfirst Editor's Pick
"One for the heads to remember. Hyperdub heavy Shannen SP crash-lands the Brew with outer-orbit dancehall don Gavsborg (from the untouchable Equinoxx crew) for an CRUCIAL session of snaking amapiano, afro-centric techno, clipped dembow futurism and unclassifiable club clobber. "

Strange Brew presents
Shannen SP (E.B.N.X / NTS)
Gavsborg (Equiknoxx)
Lucien Douglas (Accidental Meetings)
Friday 16th August
10:30pm - 3am
Shannen SP is a London-based selector and curator, with a focus on representing the pan African underground via her event series and label E.B.N.X. and through her long-standing NTS show. Showcasing raw amapiano heat, soulful kwaito atmospheres and brooding gqom.
Gavsborg is just 1 of his many aliases, known foremost as part of Equiknoxx, a globally recognised collective exploring ancient dancehall rituals meddled with contemporary influences and experimentation. Other projects include Cassette Blair, Papa Hawk and his latest musical venture Uncle G which explores lush jungle ambience layered with dirgelike loops.
Curator for the inimitable Accidental Meetings parties and imprint, Lucien Douglas makes a rare appearance on the buttons. A true local head with an ear for wild rhythms across club obscurities.
Entry requirements: 18+
