There are plenty of parallels between Disco Deviant and their guests tonight, Horse Meat Disco. Both have done much to install their titular genre as a real option in their respective cities of Brighton and London. HMD are just one of many first class new wave disco guests that have visited the south coast thanks to the booking policy of Pablo Contraband and Danny Webb – The Revenge, Cosmic Boogie and Simon Lee from Faze Action for a start. Between popping in for this review and it hitting your eyeballs Andrew Weatherall will have taken to the decks.
Here the disc jockeys have a chance to delve into the deeper, more dubby side of house and disco, playing with the warehouse ethics of DJ Harvey’s marathon nine-hour sets in Los Angeles. As a result they have us and the rest of the crowd chomping at the bit for Horse Meat Disco and bucking on the dancefloor til the early morning.
