Having mashed up Shoreditch last month with Nicolette, Ari Up, DJ Flight and Mary Anne Hobbs, BASH returns with another mouthwatering line up The Bug throws down the gauntlet to London’s finest Dub Poets for some serious word sound power. Altered Vibes recording artist Roger Robinson, Kode 9 collaborator Space Ape and ‘Poetry Kitchen’ head honcho Malika will be steppin up to the mic with words of rootical wisdom(With additional surprise guests in the house). Meanwhile Big Dada label artist/Roots Manuva Remixer and pioneer of “disposable graffiti” Part 2, takes time out to promote his forthcoming New Flesh album ‘Universally Dirty’, by throwing down some bass heavy waist grinders.And fresh from another roadblock DMZ, Loefah will be spinning a bass heavy selection of ragga and dancehall.
And last but by no means least, John Eden will be warming up BASH with tunes he has championed on his tremendous uncarved.org.blog site

i got there at 10.30 and it was shut?
yeah the door thing is problematic at PP. I thought they opened at 10:30 last night but it might have been a little bit later? It’s worth getting a pint down the road and then checking back, in my experience. I hope you didn’t miss it…
Top top night, I had a wicked time.
Woebot – who eerily has just called me in the midst of posting this – has had the same experience:
