  • Turn Off The Radio – July 09
    By Jenai on July 4th, 2009 | No Comments Comments

    It was hot…! Not just because the venue was obviously feeling the credit crunch and decided to not just turn off the Radio but also the air conditioning and any possible fan they had. But that didn’t stop the vibes, but did create a ‘Turkish Bath’ of energy and music. Guest’s such as Ghostpoet, who i have never heard  before, was a breath of fresh air in a style of Hip Hop Ive not heard before…! You must check him out.

    Maverick Sabre tore down the crowed with his soulful riffs and husky vocals that defy any Irish accent Ive ever known. Then our very own Random Impulse, in just setting up a band in two short weeks bought the house down! His hard vocals on intense Indie beats with a drop of blues, soul and a touch of something brand new that just captivated the whole venue. Along side Goldielocks and Grime superstar Dot Rotten this was one not to be missed. Even in the mist of the slightly dodgy sound system (that’s an understatement, but I’m trying to be nice so low me!). Here are the pics from the night taken by myself and you may see few of the Ego Thieves / Nuckin Fang family in there ;) None of me of course, some say I’m a phantom of the photo.

    Big up all that attended and the Turn The Radio Off crew alongside Box Fresh clothing. Good times. Whoop!

    Hit out Facebook for the rest of the pics and tag yourself.

    We been meaning to hit a Fat! event since they kicked off again this year. But with Urban Nerds, lots of work, setting Ego Thieves and erm 46 inch LED TVs and Resident Evil 5 we have been stretched, especially feel shit about missing the last one as our old colleague and bredrin Lee Mortimer was there :( …. But fear not, the Thieves will be in full force for the next one due at the end of the month on Friday 29th May, Camera’s in hand and brand new Tee’s hot off the press. 

    With a disgustingly heart thumping line up consisting of Foamo (Chew the Fat! resident), Rusko & CaspaDJ ZincRaffertie, The Boog-A-Loo Crew &  all conceled within the Arches it would be a sin to miss it.

    By Jenai on April 27th, 2009 | 2 Comments2 Comments Comments

    If you wasn’t there, shame shame know your name. If you was thank you for coming down and Im sure that goes for the whole Nerds team. It was a bad night with allot of eager ravers and allot of good vibes. Was very different from the usual Nerds scenario as it was set in a 3 room warehouse (which was confusing at times lol). Big up our Urban Nerds family who worked very hard at putting the night together.

    :: Highlights of the night :: >> Shy FX >> N Type >> Funktion 1 Sound System >> James & Mark’s Madonna Headsets >> Getting to see Charley & Tony Black (genius behind the logo!) >> Having the misses (follow her Twitter ReemKanj) skank out to Dubstep with her sister & Kai (D101 Magazine) >> Excel, Kofi, Stephan, Nathaniel & random Asian girl who never smiled who i dont know the name of >> Sai & Chris & Pro Green & The Reeboks >> The usual suspects aka Robin, Alex & the rest of the fam >> ATG Graffiti >> Random people coming up & saying how bad MDMA mix was & whens the next Dubfluencial out lol (was allot of people, humble i am!).

    Some random pics taken by us of course (Urban Nerds official media partners), and you can see the rest if you click this post. Gallery inside or visit our Flickr here.

  • All I See Is Ponys?
    By Jenai on March 6th, 2009 | 1 Comment1 Comment Comments

    Weekend started early for the Thieves this weekend with the launch of a new Thursday night event at Hoxton Pony (yes, Pony’s are getting about or dare i say Horsing around ;) … sorry i had to) called Comic.

    header_comic

    The night was a success and its got a really good vibe. This is the second time i have been in the Hoxton Pony and love the venue and you would be hard pushed to have a bad night there. Maybe a tad too many city boys there for my liking who just didn’t seem to appreciate the good music. Now with BBC iPlayer as well you really do have no reason to pop down there on a Thursday and start the weekend early without having to miss Eastenders. Or lets be honest, do the right thing and omnibus that shit on Sunday :)

    Big love to my original sister for life Rachel for the info and invite.
