Get LOOSE!

LOOSE are purveyors of fine electronic music a bit like an Emmanuel film; their parties are deep slow and banging but always with a hint of humour and accompanied by a cocktail served with a synthesised disco twist.

Normally little reviews like this now give a quick overview including a list of the DJ's they have booked other parties they have played at and venues they have used so inkeeping with etiquette LOOSE have Booked many Dj's, guested at many other parties and thrown Hoe-downs in a number of different venues. All have been good, none of them have been even approaching shit.

They have taken a little sojourn over the summer to change Venues,moving home from Platinum strip club to the Shacklewell Arms in Dalston, which is brilliant as its near my flat.

Tomorrow night they have a man with a funny name and big reputaion guesting. The funny named man is Mugwump. He is from Belgium and makes amazing music. He will be playing records at a loud volume to which it is expected you dance.

Cred Paul and Helen Run Loose, here is a mix from the male portion of the trio.

and here is a mix by Mugwump.

Mark 7 - Salute to the Men of Vauxhall

This Blog is supposed to be about all things Join The Dots, news of gigs, releases and edits/mixes we have done. However every so often something rears it little head that deserves to be shared with all and sundry and this funnily enough after all the aforementioned hyperbole is exactly one of those things.

Mark Seven is a bit of a dude, a DJ, record collector, owner of Juswax record store , lives in Sweden, looks a bit like a modern pirate and is the owner of some of the best, rarest and most original records around.

A mix by Mark is a pretty rare thing, he is somewhat secretive about the tracks he plays and hardly ever agrees to allow his sets to be recorded. His Slow Blow Mix was an underground bomb, blogged more than a Lindsey lohan crotch shot and mused over in the greatest of detail by internet nerds across the globe.

A few months back the very trendy people at Oki Ni released A Salute to the Men of Vauxhall a three CD Mix of Mark's recorded at Sunday night Disco institution Horse Meat Disco. It is three hours of upfront disco and Saint-esq. early morning sleaze.

There's a few hits in there Pointer Sisters - Automatic and Hall and Oates - I can't go for that but good luck on spotting more than a quarter of the tracklist!

It was released as a limited edition free CD with Mark's latest 12" Travelogue and is already selling for upto £80 on Discogs.

Now with Mark's permission for those who either were not quick enough to get their hands on a copy (ha ha I have one) or don't have the money to spend £80 on a copy (ha ha I have one) here is the entire mix in full to download.

enjoy, tis is very special indeed

A Kenneth Ba(N)ger

Kenneth Bager is apparently the go to guy if you wanna run a record label he is also Danish which other than being a somewhat appetising culinary treat is also the national language of Denmark a Scandinavian country where splendidly (if your a man or a lesbian) there is on average 2 lasses to every lad.

Our Kenneth has worked with musical luminaries such as Peter Gabriel and Michael Nyman and has somehow now morphed into Denmark's latest pop sensation following in the monstrous top 40 footsteps of Aqua and perveyor all things weekend orientated Whigfield and performed this year at legendary pop/rock festival Roskilde.

Duff has done a remix of his latest little number, it has been denied by the record label :( , they said it didn't reference the original enough... all the above is a bit pointless, except to highlight that even a man with a track record longer than Linford Christie's schlong is prone to misjudgement.

Get it here and make your own mind up.. should be played loud on a Saturday nightwhen the air is getting hot etc...
