Fresh as you fucking like... JERK - Saturday 15 November - ESCAPE, Edward Street Fresh as you fucking like... the credo of dance music today is that of ever evolving, constantly changing strains of beats and sonics... Originating from the same source, machine and soul, electronic dance is now a stratified morass of names, labels and excuses; sometimes with an inwardly looking seriousness to the point of the banal. Saturday the fifteenth, a bunch of Jerks are getting together to pick all that up and throw it in the sonic blender for a night of energising and none too serious comic book dance floor mayhem... This is the Jerk. A couple of junglists, some technoheads who think they're spinning house and a way lost wild hip hop scratchmeister in the mix is a recipe for disaster, and you better be there to drown in the ensuing funkass mayhem through the biggest sound system the likes of Escape has not seen for a while... Forget the bland, prepackaged shrinkwrapped club fare they've been pulling you with and calling 'cutting edge dance music' for the last twelve months, This is the Jerk. The Jerk Officers on duty behind the blenders of steel are djs Cuff, Ruffstep, Dr. Cund, Wierdlikea Firengine, Softex and The Mighty Jaz. Presales available at Flipside and Troubadour Records. The Jerk Comissioners are Larry, Mel and Psi. (apologies to Mosquito etc) |
