As promised here’s a little more from Horse Meat Disco in London last night. It was a lot of fun. We snapped a few quick pics and this video from the booth. Thanks to Jim Stanton and James Hillard for having us.

Mister Saturday Night at the Disco
The report from Horse Meat Disco is that we drank too much whiskey, played disco and gospel house, and people took their clothes off. Most of the nudity was courtesy of a gent called Sleazy Michael. (That is a very NSFW link, by the way.) We were told that he wasn’t the original naked guy of the party, but we were happy all the same. Justin also got flashed by one of two women in the club, and the other nice young lady didn’t need to bother flashing, because her top was off pretty much from the moment she hit the dancefloor. Tasteful pictures and videos from the night are on the way. For now, we’re headed to the British Museum to try to pull our minds out of the gutter.
School of Seven Bells Last Night
School of Seven Bells! What a show last night. The Deheza twins’ voices were in sync and cathedral-fit, Ben Curtis’ guitar playing was perfectly jagged, and the beats – partially provided by machine and partially by a drummer – were giant. We love SVIIB’s records, but in the flesh there’s a visceral energy that takes it to a higher plane.
Kudos to Ghostly for pushing culture where it needs to go by releasing their albums (while still putting out stuff like Mux Mool). It’s so refreshing to see an “electronic-music” label releasing genre-transcending music like this. It seems their ambition is being paid back with success, too. Last night’s show was very sold out.

Phenomenal
There were a lot of great moments that went down on Sunday–Kendra Borowski dumping a pitcher of water over her own head, Eamon standing on a planter behind the DJ booth shooting a strobe light onto the crowd, Traxx (who was in town from Chicago) screaming his face off for what must have been five minutes in front of the DJ booth when Twitch dropped a Jeff Mills track, and Justin doing his own screaming through a giant (dirty) traffic cone.
But the most epic moment of all was probably when, as Optimo dropped their namesake track by Liquid Liquid, Sal P (the Liquids’ frontman) happened to be dancing right next to the DJ booth. Of course we handed him the mic. Jason Rule, a gent who’s joined us at the vast majority of all Sunday Bests ever, caught it on camera.

JG Wilkes. He and Twitch killed it yesterday.
