Nothing better than a proper good old fashioned January shakedown to keep one warm in winter! Still buzzing from the success of our last sellout event in November with Omar S, the Louche/Jaunt partnership will return this January, for the first in a four part series of Red Bull Music Academy events at Plan B. First up we welcome Julio Bashmore, Shonky, Midland & Jane Fitz
Those who are familiar with The Red Bull Music Academy, will know what a true honour it is to host an event for them. Red Bull Music Academy since 1998, has led the field globally and become an institution for specialist underground music production masterclasses, hopping to a different metropolis each year, and offering only the most prodigal musical talent a glimpse into the minds of the finest producers in electronic history. Over the years Moodymann, Flying Lotus, Jeff Mills, Osunlade, Henrik Schwarz and Jazzanova amongst others have all been involved & spoken at The Red Bull Music Academy.
The Academy have all of their fingers and toes very firmly on the pulse, and take a great interest in the current underground music scene. Since we’re being represented by such a prestigious institution, we thought we’d start the year how we mean to go on by bringing in a lineup which oozes both quality and variation.
Julio Bashmore, is a name that if you haven’t heard by now, you must have had your head stuck hard down a toilet.. but even then you would have probably been able to hear the signature Bashmore toms rattling your skull against the U-bend! With one of the most seminal releases of the year, crossover anthem “Battle For Middle You” earned the Bristolian almost instant global recognition. Expect, jaw dropping bass & serious house dubs as Bashmore brings his signature Bristol modulations to South London.
We welcome back French house virtuoso Shonky from Dan Ghenacia's Lola ED family, fresh from blowing the roof off Mint club with his closing set from Louche’s 4th Birthday in November. Expect to be treated to ruthless grooves, killer basslines, and some real nice obscure psychedelic west coast vinyl.
Midland, after a solid stint in Leeds living with one of bass music’s men of the moment, Ramadanman, has been busy making waves aplenty, already with a signature style that blurs the lines between bass music, techno and house. Add a handful of some of the falls hottest releases, a move to London, and more tracks due on Will Saul's on point label AUS and 2012 looks like its gonna be a pretty good year for the young producer.
Holding it down in the basement will be East London DJ, promoter and music journalist Jane Fitz. Djing since the nineties in London and her old home Hong Kong, Jane has always shown a natural aptitude to house music of all kinds. She's taken this passion for the music we all love around the globe, from Watergate to Free Rotation Festival as well as delivering one of the standout Louche podcasts of the year; if you've not heard her play before you're in for a treat.
They’ll be joined by Rinse FM talent and Red Bull Music Academy graduate Braiden. Whether it’s playing the latest future garage and funky over three decks or scouring Berlin’s dancefloors in search of some undiscovered glitch or disco-infused gems to weave into his expansive sets, Braiden continues to deliver on the hype whilst keeping that element of surprise.
This time we step out of the warehouses and take the celebrations south of the river to one of our favourite venues in London, Brixton's most majestic party destination, Plan B. A 500 capacity gem complete with Funktion 1 sound in two acoustically treated rooms with a raw, stripped back interior. Expect intimate vibes and a serious soundsystem! Red Bull Music Academy presents Louche & Jaunt with Julio Bashmore, Shonky, Midland, Braiden & Jane Fitz.
