Culture Vulture Special!
This week we've got a Culture Vulture with a difference, as our Head of Content Rachel Stringer is going to so many events that we're dedicating the whole post to her...
As I’m off on holiday next week and I’ve been pretty quiet culturally the last couple of weeks, I’m squeezing a lot in this week!
Tuesday I’m going to For God's Sake! - Faith Action on Climate Change, an evening put on by Christian Aid and Radical Middle Way, featuring some of the best Christian and Muslim hiphop artists around. Kumasi, Jahaziel, Poetic Pilgrimage, Mohammed Yahya
Wednesday I’m going to the opening night of StillPoint, Oxford where Jamie Catto from One Giant Leap and who played at GB08, is performing.
Friday I’m going to my regular Friday milonga at Negracha for a tango lesson and some dancing. I then plan to head out afterwards to a night of garage and grime at Trouble Vision in Corsica Studios, South London and am particularly excited about Toddla T (pictured above).
Saturday, if I wasn’t going snowboarding I’d be at the best dubstep night in the UK, DMZ, for their 4th birthday. The lineup will be roadblock.
To finish, here’s a great interview with Benga (my favourite dubstep DJ) and Skream who reckon dubstep is urban folk music – genius!
And that, I think, is more than enough culture for one week...
