Drug Church, White Reaper, S.P.Y, y Public Opinion

One of the best shows I’ve been to in a long time. Dope venue. Great performance. Funny. Fun. Cool people and great music. Thanks for an incredible night. Looking forward you seeing y’all again.

Song kick wanted to know if there were any "wild antics" at the show last night. There was nothing but—Mr Bassman and Mr. Keys, I'm especially talking about you.

Loud, but really clean sound, the excellent new album got plenty of airtime and the band brought the energy.

My only complaint has nothing to do with the band. There is purportedly graffiti in the dressing room of the Cat's Cradle that states "If they are standing there with their arms folded that means they like you." It's not like people didn't clap at the end of the song, but this is fist-pumping, head-banging rock and roll—would it kill you to show some emotion? Rock and roll should be about cutting loose and having a good time, and honestly, with some folks it was hard to tell. A band feeds off crowd energy, when the crowd is as into as the band is, the show is better for everyone. OK, that ends that. White Reaper was really good and I will totally see them again.

Originally from Sao Paolo but on the London drum and bass scene for the last eleven years, S.P.Y has just dropped his epic two-part Back to Basics LP. Released within six months of each other, Chapter One and Two feature collaborations with Total Science, Rene La Vice and vocal tracks from the likes of Diane Charlemagne, Grimm and DRS MC. The 24 tracks blend the uplifting drum and bass timbre of his previous LP, What the Future Holds, and his earlier Love & Hate EP, with a darker, more deeply-rooted house sound. He’s also done stonkingly good remixes with pal, DJ Marky, on Deadmau5’s ‘Strobe’, Claude von Stroke’s ‘Aundy’ and LTJ Bukem’s ‘Atlantis’, and of Chase & Status’s ‘Flashing Lights’ and Delilah’s ‘Go’. He also co-wrote the tune for the 2014 Street Child World Cup along with London Elektricity and Back to Basics collaborator Diane Charlemagne. He’s earned a spot on the bill for Tomorrowland, Global Gathering and the Electric Daisy Carnival and plays a smashing live set. The live atmosphere is ecstatic. There’s an even mix of brimming kids and old scene denizens and S.P.Y manages to cover all the bases.
