Trailblazing, boundary-pushing dance act plays the classics live alongside The Jungle Drummer, promising an intimate yet raucous evening of live dance music.
Few match the impact that A Guy Called Gerald has left on the UK underground scene. Big in the acid house scene, with his tune 'Voodoo Ray' becoming a dance standard, and his work with 808 State that saw the era-defining 'Pacific State', it was his trailblaizing style that influenced the sound of jungle, marking his print on the shape of things to come.
The Jungle Drummer, having performed for Shy FX and London Electricity, turns drum and bass into analogue, moving at a dizzying pace while you wonder how you'll keep up with him. The power of his drumkit, combined with the DJ work of A Guy Called Gerald, will no doubt be a joyful celebration of everything good in UK dance music.
After shelling out the Fox and Firkin last year, they now both see a serious upgrade to the prestigious Jazz Cafe, a more-than-ideal space to truly soak in some quality music. You can even dine upstairs, but for an event like this, we'd suggest saving your money and getting down and dirty with the rest of them. Expect a mature crowd for these types of events, ravers who have kept it going for decades. They're the ones you want.
