Seagulls trips the light fantastic in fun spots of the four corners, and most notably dressing, undressing and re-dressing (himself and others) at the notorious swap of a Favela Thursday. Razzmatazzers ahoy! Dean’s dandy is notorious in clothes-swapping circles, and is oft’ found in frivolous garb, inviting all and sundry to pitch in the lunacy that kicks in on the run-up to a full moon.

He plays it straight as the crow flies, scarecrow … the cross-dressing demon of Favela’s Magnificent Seven pops in blue breaks, jazz swing and mambo madness amongst other things. It’ll be an inter-continental swoop through jazz, funk, hip hop, hybrid, raw Brazilian beats spinning over some crazy raw through soul, old skool, new wave, poptastic, baile funk, jazz, hip hop, r’n'b and in betweenies.

 6pm – 2am

£10 after 9pm

 

Many moons ago, Zéro stepped in to co-found Favela Paris and the love affair continues …

It all started with a DJ residency at Sans-Sanz, in Paris’s Bastille, it was the 90s and the Zero was bit of a house maestre. In recent times Zero’s stepped forwards with more roots in funk, soul, rare groove and whatever eclectic he can get in a set!

From Jeans, to Seagulls, to Lavish, this is one chameleon of a music maestre … and he shows no signs of wanting to settle down …

Hence the repertoire that has a little something for everyone: blue breaks, jazz swing and mambo madness amongst other things. It’ll be an inter-continental swoop through jazz, funk, hip hop, hybrid, raw Brazilian beats spinning over some crazy raw through soul, old skool, new wave, poptastic, baile funk, jazz, hip hop, r’n’b and in betweenies.

6pm – 2am

Easter treats in store, and a battle of egos galore!  Gringo’s the father of the sound, Lavish swaps names as often as underpants (regularly, thankfully) and Boo’n Tchiky hail from the French capital of all things Eiffel and cocoa.

Gringo brings on the samba, bossa nova, electronica, funk, breakbeats, batucada, hip hop, pop, southern rock, swing and rolls the rest on …

Victor Lavishes : blue breaks, jazz swing and mambo madness amongst other garment-swapping delights

Mr. Boo streams in his own stamp of soul, disco, new wave, rockcism it’s underground electrotastic to mainstream pop all the way.

Tchiky’s style? Unlikely as you like. It’ll be baile funk, hip hop, drum ‘n’ bass, samba, house, rock and all for the love of Brazil!

6pm – 3am
