Dug out some live recordings from the mists of, well, about 3 years back. Anyone remember our Signs of Life… events? They were pretty good, even if I do say so meself. Here’s three exclusive sets from Infinite Livez, DJ Wrongspeed and Liberation Jumpsuit all live at the Brixton Jamm in December 2005.
Plenty happening, first up tomorrow World Zombie Day hits the streets of central London.
All Hallow’s Eve falls on a Friday in perfect party fashion. We can recommend Urban75’s Offline Party in Brixton for FREE. Elsewhere I’m DJing at a huge party alongside many other vinyl junkies and live acts, but have been politely asked not to reveal the location. However anyone who’s anyone in Pecknam will know where I’m talking about :-)
True zombies will see it through til Saturday and join us on the Crawl of the Dead V up in town.

This caught my eye as I discovered the band Full Fat last week and they’re, well, fat! It’s a fundraiser for Refugee Action Kingston, so bit strange to be happening SE rather than SW but hey, come on down!
Simply download the audio and print the map.
Press play when standing on ha’penny hatch bridge.
You will be guided by the Admiral on an exciting venture around deep dark Deptford.
