Fantastic Negrito at Islington Assembly Hall: Funk’s Fiercest Storyteller at His Peak

Fifteen years of following this man’s music, and last night at Islington Assembly Hall, Fantastic Negrito showed me he’s still got cards up his sleeve. Third London show I’ve caught, and let me tell you – this wasn’t just another night of blues and funk. This was Xavier operating at frequencies I didn’t know existed.

When Worlds Collide: Jesus Jones and EMF Prove the 90s Never Left

In what could only be described as a dream ticket for anyone who lived through the golden age of British alternative rock, Jesus Jones and EMF took to the stage at London’s O2 Forum Kentish Town for a co-headlining show that defied both expectations and time itself.

The Heat Inc.: Turning Up the Volume and Complexity at Camden's Dublin Castle

The Heat Inc., self-proclaimed "Loudest Band in the UK," continues to live up to their moniker.
