Double spin-off for a spring extravaganza and a corner of Paris all to our Shoreditch selves.The doubler will fast-track us to Kingdom come and what world of Brazilian beats and Parisian chic! It’s the Favela guarantee of the Brazil-based mad and bad with records stepping up to the highest of cent pour cent Franco- Brésilien.Think baile funk, hip hop, jazz, drum’n’bass and samba hybrids in double doses, bring on the fun and then some … extended session from the men behind the brand of Clek Clek Boom!
It’s a whole lotta smoove in electro-tastic form …

Note from Monsieur Boo: “Screw the cheerleader, screw the woOORRLLd!!!”
Note from Tchiky:  “100P1000 Franco Brasileiro”
(we already knew that!)
End note: MUSIC IS EVERYTHING

Le Weekend de Clek Clek Boom!

clekclekboom.jpg

A fest. for the bass heads amongst us! Parisian clique step in for some rather important doings courtesy of influences from the far corners of the globe.Clek Clek Boom
Mr. Boo streams in his own stamp of soul, disco, new wave, rockcism, whilst Tchiky Al Dente has been overwhelming the airwaves since the age of fifteen. The style? Unlikely as you like. It’ll be baile funk, drum ‘n’ bass, house, rock and all for the love of Brazil!And the rest’ll shake the house and our terrace doors down … with skip hop sounds, samba, bossa nova, electronica, funk, breakbeats and the oh-so-important batucada.

Tune in for the most fun a weekend has to offer!
6 p.m. – 2 a.m.
Ten pounds after 9 p.m.

Shoreditch Camembert

 

camembert-front1.jpgThis is the Favela for food (as the centre of attraction), ‘tween family ‘n’ friends.

C’est de la tradition, c’est tout! We’re used to eating à table en famille, so we’ve reached out across London to invite all to do the same … it’s a social occasion this eating thing! None of that solitary TV-dinner-tray nonsense!

It’s £12.50 for a set menu starter and main course (naturellement, there’s a veggie option) and the triangles de Camembert and bread are part of the package! Did I mention the complimentary glass of red wine as an accompaniment?

Wash it all down with a good conversation!

Live act t.b.

5 p.m. – 1 a.m. / Banquet begins at eight!

Free entry / £12.50 for the feast

Au mois d’août, les weekends sont remplis du monsieur!

Le Ross est de retour!!!

So what’ll he play today?

Afterall, there’s a whole weekend of tuning to consider …

Fresh-faced from filmi things, Mr. Clarke’ll bring in a taste of L.A. (that’ll be sunshine then) to his hip hop, funk, samba, pop, drum’n'bass, rock, carioca funk, electro clash and all else Brazilian!

Just to get an idea, Le Clarke is the powerhouse behind Neu Noise, Lovebox and whole lotta other stuff!

Many moons ago he set up the fabulous Feva night with Mark Rae that spawned Fat City records and the Grand Central label, he is also the founder of long-runner ‘Off-Centre’ with Patrick Forge and Neil Boorman at 333 Old Street.
