Tonight! From 6pm! In the middle of the football! We'll be hosting the afterwork drinks for @thesociallondon!
Join us in the time machine back to 1991, with a selection of tunes to soundtrack the second half, the post-mortem and beyond! #partylikeits1991
And if you can't make it tonight, the next one is IRL... 👀
So excited to be celebrating our return to @thesociallondon (and the 30th anniversary of the Slough Festival) on Saturday, July 24 with guest DJs @Andybebop (@rideox4), Christian Savill (@slowdiveband) and @matflint (Revolver)!
Press play at 6pm, and let's head back to the halcyon days of 1991 when Bruce Dickinson could tour in Europe without any issues (the prick): mixcloud.com/soniccathedral…
We open with the late, great John Peel talking about @MBVofficial in 1991 and seeing them having three albums in the charts simultaneously in, ooh, about 30 years’ time…
Join us in the time machine back to 1991 for The Social Gathering (@thesociallondon) from 6pm tonight. There’s a bit of a Twin Peaks theme to today’s mix... 🪵
Join us for a drink and some tunes, including this one by The KLF, which is today’s Daily Devotional...
Also, you'll be excused for being late because you really should be watching @cheval_sombre’s live set for @RoughTrade over on their Instagram, which is also at 6pm!
30 years ago today, the word “shoe-gazers” appeared for the very first time in print...
It crept into a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it down-page news article in the Sampled Notes column in the May 25 issue of @NME which had some info about the forthcoming ‘Holding Our Breath’ EP and live dates by @slowdiveofficial...
In it, they were described as “hotly-tipped shoe-gazers” (with a hyphen, natch)...
All aboard! Here's tonight's mix for The Social Gathering (@thesociallondon). Press play at 6 and follow this thread for a good old wallow in nostalgia. Off we go back to the heady days of 1991... mixcloud.com/soniccathedral…
@thesociallondon We open with the sound of the @worldoftwistuk and the extended remix of ‘Sons Of The Stage’, what an incredible band/song. Here they are performing the single version on Eggs N Baker:
@thesociallondon@worldoftwistuk The football commentary was from the @SunderlandAFC v Newcastle derby match on November 17, 1991. Peter Davenport put Sunderland one up, but the game ended as a 1-1 draw (we'll ignore that)...
