RIVINGTON STREET FESTIVAL
After such a successful celebration of the The Queen's Jubilee last year, Rivington Street Festival returns on Sunday 23rd June.

CHATTIN' BREEZE: KETOLOCO
We've all had a day job we'd rather not think about. Whether it's manning the till at Tescos or pulling the feathers off dead turkeys at christmas, we've all had to endure some pretty shitty tasks to get to where we are now. Even DJs. Heidi might have dished out wax at Phonica, Damian Lazarus once a crime reporter for The Sun and Laurent Garnier was a chef before taking on the world's noisiest rooms, but not all clubland's most wanted have lived such notable lives.

CABLE INTERVIEW
The news of Cable's closure rocked UK clubland last week. Heartbreaking news of bailiffs, under the guidance of Network Rail, blowtorching the door and destroying the dancefloor (not in a good way) served as crushing reminder of the precarious position of Britain's finest clubs.
FACELESS LAUNCH NIGHT
Faceless Recordings celebrates its recent launch with a party at East London's Rhythm Factory this Saturday.
LONDON CLUB CLOSURES
The abrupt news of the closure of London's Cable at the hand of Network Rail repossession and plans for redevelopment sent shockwaves across the capital this May. Coming just two months after the dramatic closure of 93 Feet East and during the midst of an ongoing wrangle between private property developers and Ministry Of Sound, it's left London's clubs lined up a lot like sitting ducks, prompting clubbers to ask a flurry of pressing questions.
RETURN TO THE FUTURE
Tomorrow night, Return To The Future delivers the next long overdue instalment in their series of cracking parties, bringing one of the biggest names in modern techno to London's Victorian Vaults.
