Club Review: Shameless

Jul 31, 2009

Posted by SOURCE Writers

This One of the biggest clubbing nights in the midweek calendar, ‘Shameless Presents Quids In’ is a hard evening to resist ­- what with the offering of genre-defying sonic mash-ups and a raffle too! On entry you pay £1, which the beautiful hosts stick in a big bucket and at the end of the night one lucky punter wins it all. As the meerkat would say – simples.

Upstairs Chaos Inshoes and Audio veteran Dynamite Sal set the tone, blending sexy electro with uber-pop classics spanning over the last three decades. Down in Audio’s main dungeon DJ Nause and C-Dogg from Brighton funk band Mean Poppa Lean get the crowd hyped with the likes of Mark Morrison’s ‘Return of the Mack’ and Eurythmics’ ‘Sweet Dreams’. And it’s these audacious combinations that should never work especially with such little regard for beat matching, but the novelty value and the accessibility of the tunes means everyone can get down and dirty.

Despite the seasonal migration of students back to their home nests, by midnight the vociferous dancefloor’s filled with booty shaking, hair flicking and all sorts of sexual abandon. ‘California Dreamin’ turns into Prince’s ‘Kiss’ turns into ‘Witness (1 Hope)’ by Roots Manuva as the DJs violate both genre and decade with spectacular results.

tongue in cheek night doesn’t take itself too seriously and neither do the crowd, which makes the evening a ton of fun. So if you’re young, drunk and up for a dance come wind your waist at Audio’s absolutely Shameless Thursdays.

Audio, Thursdays
