Hoxton Live XXXII Bye

Hoxton Live XXXII By featuring The Shoreditch Poet & DJ Honey recorded live from the glowing basement of the Electricity Showrooms.

They turned the air con up to 11 for us and we turned the music up to green and sometimes orange but never in the red. Tried to write down the tunes as I played but it didn't get off the ground, you'll see a revitalized product when we return don't worry.

Honey had some delightful tales of recording in court rooms and a week of Hoxton parties and the poetry was just the most splendid way to take in the sights, sounds, scents and delights of Shoreditch through written words spoken so wonderfully for you adoring listeners.

We're on vacation for a while now so see you on the other side. Press Play .....

Hoxton Live XXXI Electric

Oh wow thanks beyond a lots, it really was special to share and have ya'll in such fine companies.

Live Musicals from Light Falls Forward - Naomi (my first ever girlfriends name) & Charlie both signed a copy of their EP for me & played us two tunes + keyboard Live #HoxtonLive.

The High Tea Cast Kelli Panda, Sam Sparrow & Lea Ricecakes turned the tone from sour to devilishly devoured with pouts and presence, if you could be offended then you probably was.

Andrew David Thornley was also the surprise guest of honor and what an entrance with one hand in his pocket, and the other waving a taxi cabs.

Full Praise Adoration and Inspiration across this British Isles Nation comes from Friends who changed my week, head and life thus we played FOUR new songs from their new record Manifest! Which Hoxton FM has and you don't so tune in for:

A Light
Sorry
Dreaming
Van Fan Gor Du

@Afriendszone actually tweeted after the show asking weather I'd played 'unreleased album tracks' got a little bit scared but the lush love was shared by the record label so we're all goods.

Friends - Manifest

With the taste of love hearts and the aroma of the sweetest smile - Friends debut Manifest' will create the most divine magical tickling kiss your audio device will hear in 2012.

The record is delicately propped by the singles Friend Crush and Mind Control at either end to leave you moved by the adorable 2. Sorry 5. A Light 11. Van Fan Gor Du with I'm His Girl sneaking in mid way to fill your face with a fiver.

All the gorgeous energy of the live show's is pressed splendidly and produced in majestic fashion so you can hear the rattle hum drums and instrument changes between songs, while still sounding box fresh.

The journey feels joyous from I'm His Girl at the end of the summer Manifesting into this huge bakers dozen, 38 minute  humid cloud bursting unable-to-sit-without-vibing mastered piece.

Sam's vocals sweetly creating masterful melodies above bouncing heavy bass and buoyant percussion  makes for the perfect cocktail of late night Hoxton or mid afternoon London Fields Sexual Delight.

Friends - Manifest released 4th of June through Lucky Numbers Records
