Event Details

It's possible to capture summer in a song. Like Richard Attenborough's mosquitoes and their prehistoric amber, if you drip sticky kicks over a bassline that winds just so, then even gone midnight in mid-winter, you can unveil the sun.

So consider our next event your dose of vitamin D. After some peripatetic parties, it lands in our new home, The Colombian, the little brother and next door neighbour of London's Best Club, Corsica Studios. To fill it we've got sounds to rip through grey skies, to litter South London with sand, with lapping waves, to bring that heat that holds you close and makes you want to slip out of sticky clothes.

If you don't now Alexander Nut I feel bad for you son. His bow is so bestringed it might as well be a harp. He's the founder of Eglo Records, home to folks like Floating Points, Fatima and Funkineven (seems the man's got a taste for Fs). Last year he shuttered his eight-year-old Rinse show, a move that made Saturday afternoons that little less bright. But what the airwaves now lack, his club sets more than supply. He is a DJ who brings the ruckus, who can find the link between rare groove and conscious rap, who can make god-bothering soul bang like it was made by the Belleville Three. He is the kind of DJ other DJs aspire to be.

Though perhaps not Ruf Dug. Frankly, he's got chops enough. Although the NTS-jock-slash-Mancunian-party-starter has an equally expansive view of what constitutes club music. He is a crate digger, a man who unearths tracks most would pass by but which, in his hands, transform into those "oh my god what the hell is this?" moments. He's produced wonky, sun-bleached house for Unknown To The Unknown and Golf Channel. He's melted Boiler Room. Now he comes to rip the Colombian apart.

If, that is, Josey Rebelle hasn't already rent the building's foundations. Another on-air DJ who slays as hard IRL, she is a true student of sound, of those records that seem to slip inside and set your limbs in motion without bothering your brain. Her Rinse show is religion for those who've shunned Sunday's traditional worship, a balm to those just up and a guarantee that those not yet down will delay bed for at least another few hours. With the energy she brings to ABC, expect to still be wide-eyed when she starts up again the next day.
