Jukebox 7"s co-host Long John spins a round vinyl thing. |
Friday’s inaugural Jukebox 7’s night went down pretty in the Elixir Bar up from Euston.
The non-purist musical melting pot worked and the good sized mixed crowd cottoned on to
what was happening, illustrated by the requests I received: The Ramones, MGMT, “some
northern soul”, Joy Division, Curtis Mayfield and The Vaccines. All of which
could’ve been played and some of which was.
Initially the plan was for the night to run monthly but
to preserve the vibe of Friday night, and to ensure its constantly keep it
fresh, promoters Long John and Louie Markey have decided that a more sporadic
time scale between parties will benefit all future editions of the Jukebox
7"s series. A wise move. I was lucky enough to spin a couple of sets alongside
fellow DJs John, Louie and Miles. This’ll give a flavour of the night.
