Jen-Wah-Zee’s tropical-latin-afro boogie party night returns with special guests Secousse Soundsystem.
Secousse has been gracing London’s dancefloors with some of the most exciting Tropical party music in the world since their formation back in 2007. The night was started by internationally respected, white hot production duo, Radioclit, whose untouchable credits include Santigold, Esau Mwamwaya and M.I.A. The night has been critically acclaimed for its blend of live bands and worldbeat riot inducing DJ sets. It has an all encompassing music policy playing the fresh sounds of ‘new whirled music’ spreading like wildfire via Myspace, hipster blogs and dance music forums: Kuduro from Angola, Kwaito from South Africa, Baile funk from Brazil, Coupe decale from Ivory Coast or Reggaeton and Cumbia from Latin America.

Friday 18th December at Bungalows and Bears… ASBO A GOGO

We say: Recently bigged up by the Guardian, ASBO a GO GO is an enduring Bungalows party institution. Two girls who got fed up of hearing shit music on nights out and decided to sort it out. If you like Yezza, Li-Lo, Babes in Toyland, Fugazi, Pat Benatar (!), Talking Heads, Timbaland, Robyn or The Specials and dancing on a Friday night then you’ll like what the ASBO lasses are about.

The ASBO girls say:”You’ll go to bed dreaming of this night, and wake up moist.” Right then.
