Congress Presents: REAL LIES + THE RHYTHM METHOD + JOHNNY WHITE (STAND UP SET) + WILD GEESE DJ + THUG CLIVE DJ + JOE BISH DJ + BACONS DJ – Thursday 19th December

Real Lies
World Peace, the debut single by London trio Real Lies, is one of the tracks of the year, sheer Balearic pop bliss, the sound of indie ethics colliding with DJ culture, like New Order discovering house music for the second time circa Republic. We’ve seen World Peace described as “baggy”, but baggy – Madchester-era indie dance music – was scabrous where this is sumptuous, sleek, lazer guided disco pop. There are no rough edges, just smooth surfaces, although that isn’t to say it’s mellow: when the bass and drums kick in and surge forward – and they repeat the trick twice, once at the start of the song and again at the climax, because they know just what effect it has – you can feel the momentum and it is plainly as exciting as anything we’ve heard all year.

Folke Newington – Sunday 22nd December
Posted December 16, 2013
Free Entry
Folke Newington is the brainchild of Promoter/Musician/Enthusiast Lee Gorton. The night has been a staple diet of Stoke Newington night life going back a number of years, and has a growing reputation for its diverse acts and endless energy. Promoter Lee Gorton describes it as ‘a ramshackle free for all of the finest musicians and bands’. Certainly not a typical folk night, music ranges from the obscure to the beautiful, whether it be a 10 piece male vocal group, acoustic singer songwriter, punk poet, or the weekly appearance of coolest OAP in East London, X Factor’s Dave Elvis. The night exudes its own special party atmosphere quite unlike any other night, and akin to an old school musical variety performance, it never fails to surprise and entertain.
