Our friends Real Gold are putting on a one-off night of funky, garage and fun times this Saturday at a great new venue off Curtain Road. DJs include Mak 10, Smutlee, Jackmaster, Vice’s very own King BB, and the enigma that is John the Don. Come along.

Ikonika mini-mix
Yes, that’s right, we are treating you to yet another mix. Why do we do it? Do you even appreciate them? Do you even appreciate us? Don’t answer that. Just download the fucking mix. This one is by sublime producer/DJ/girl Ikonika, and features lots of her new material, plus a number of forthcoming Hyperdub releases.
If you were wondering, we’re not sure what specific genre you’d class Ikonika’s material as – it’s way too good to be dubstep. There hasn’t been an apt enough one invented yet. Simon Reynolds would probably call it “flib-flob” or some other terrible made-up name. And then go on to write an essay about how Ikonika’s penchant for Polo mints has made her approach music in a totally new way.

Grievous Angel mini-mix
Easter has come early because we are giving you this delicious milk chocolate egg filled with garage, good dubstep and grime, which has been mixed together in a big, plastic bowl-shaped computer programme by Sheffield-based DJ/producer extraordinaire Grievous Angel.

Smutlee mini mix
We’ve had a pretty excellent run of mini mixes so far, if we do say so ourselves. It was looking unlikely that anyone would be able to top Jackmaster’s recent mix, but we think Smutlee has managed it with this 30-minute masterpiece. It features dancehall, juke re-edits, funky, grime, funky re-edits of classic grime and a forgotten breakbeat garage gem.
