Now in our seventh year the super successful London club night is back on Saturday 26 September for another sell out night of pure vintage retro partying of epic proportions. This one thousand capacity venue in the heart of Central London boasts A DJ line-up and live band that will have you dancing from dusk until dawn.
Dance floor detonating DC Fontana celebrates their forthcoming debut album "Six Against Eight" live on stage at Crossfire, unveiling a 21st century psychedelic soul orchestra with special guest appearances. The band invites you to take 14 trips into your art & soul with their fab and compelling sonic sculpture designed to send your senses spinning.
This is music for the head, heart and the Hip. It's a record of real ambition and made with deep affection as the DCs' much-respected attack of organ, guitars & horns is beautifully enhanced with orchestras & sitars. It's a live show and album you can't afford to miss.....
The Beat room is hosted by the extraordinarily successful Mousetrap all-nighters at Orleans in Finsbury Park (now in their 18th year). Speed of (Circle Records) and Dr Robert of (Le Beat Bespoke) are joined on the decks by an International DJ Line up that will blow your mind.. Expect maximum fun, gorgeous go go girls and the primest 60’s Beat, Garage, Psych sounds to a backdrop of eye candy visuals.
The Main ballroom features the pioneers of Northern Soul all under one roof. DJ Russ Winstanley was the main DJ at legendary 70’s venue Wigan Casino. When the crowds got to big on the main dance floor at the casino they opened a second room and Stoke born and bred Dave Evison joined the DJ team. Big Brian Rae goes even further back to the famous Manchester venue ‘The Twisted Wheel’. It’s a real coo to get all three DJ’s on the same bill says co-promoter Ady Croasdell from London’s 6t’s dances held at another legendary venue the 100 Club in Oxford St. Ady and his 6t’s team have just celebrated 30 years in the business earlier this month.
London Mod promoters the New Untouchables host the R&B room with authentic Modernist sounds from resident DJ’s Roger ‘R&B’ Banks, Alan Handscombe and co-promoter Rob Bailey. Joined on the decks by very special guests Jim Cox (expect scorching Ska and early Reggae) and Joe Dutton from Northern R&B club ‘BackBeat’, with Pete Tebbutt from successful Luton venue ‘TOTS’ completing the bill.
