ON THE UP FESTIVAL: Nonclassical showcase + Mama Shamone + Hannah Holland And Bastard Batty Bass + Naomi//+ Ikonika + Subeena + Bistrotheque's UnderConstruction
For Saturday's entertainment, Time Out's Music, Nightlife and Social Club editors have pulled out all the stops to provide a veritable smorgasbord of emerging musical talent. Kicking the night off will be our good friends over at Nonclassical. With their blend of classical music, progressive electronics and a pioneering attitude, this promises to be a very special evening indeed. Following that will be music from Hannah Holland and co, a lady who mixes 'the many different bass sounds which we call batty bass: bouncy techno and house, B-more, baile funk, breaks and dubstep.' Now running her own BBB label, invariably DJing with live input from MC Chickaboo and Mama Shamone, she's a star. In Room Two we'll be beginning with Bistrotheque's UnderConstruction, bringing together alternative drag, cabaret, singer-songwriters, playwrights and mime artists for an alternative crowd. Following that we'll have dubstep from Ikonik, Subeena and special guests.
