After last months smasherooni from Ulysses 82 and Louis Finch, it’s time for another foray darn sarf. The Smugglers Inn London Excursion returns to Vibe Bar, Trueman Brewery, Brick Lane, Shoreditch, London tonight from 8pm until 1am. It’s £4 to get in or free before 8pm.

Jakattak

This month my special guest will be Jakattak who is a highly experienced underground party DJ with an amazing collection of house, disco, soul and broken beat. No online mixes or myspaces with this guy – he’s all about the music..not the marketing.

Jak used to live in Nottingham and played at nights like Basement Boogaloo and also rocked a few Smugglers Inn parties in his time. He now lives in Leeds and has quickly established himself there as a DJ to watch. Jak is a Southport devotee so he comes from quite a soulful bumpin’ angle so I am really looking forward to hearing what he plays on Friday..

Plus Resident DJ Red Rack’em – Smugglers Inn/Tirk/Untracked etc

Nottingham DJ Danny Berman aka Red Rack’em is well known for his Hot Coins disco project, beatdown house and remixes on labels such as Tirk, Untracked and Society. His fortnightly Smugglers Inn podcasts are also very popular with lovers of upfront underground music. Look out for his rather large Hot Coins remix of Joubert Singers Stand On The Word which is out now on Tirk and also his Picnic EP which has just come out on Deep Freeze, complete with a hot Revenge remix…

Rack’em will be joined each month by respected DJs and producers from various scenes.

Expect to hear the finest hip-hop, disco, cosmic, electro, punk funk, proper house, broken beat, jazz, funk and wonky beats.
