Yard Party @ Cargo, 24/06/2009

For more info, click on flyer.

Cargo‘s Yard Parties have
become the stuff of legend (the infamous type). A combination of top name djs,
ace live bands, discounted Champagne
cocktails*, an enviable decked yard with Live art being
created right in front of your eyes, and delicious ice cream specials
make this one of the hottest tickets in town. Only there are no
tickets. It’s a first come first served affair with no cover charge and no
dress code. Yes, it’s a pre- Glastonbury free-for-all with the Horse
Meat Disco djs, Adam Freeland and Plugs
gearing up ahead of their Glasto shows amidst a pool of
Champagne. So plan ahead and start thinking up good excuses not to go to
work the next day because these Yard Parties at Cargo do tend to be a lot of
fun.

Horse Meat
Disco have become a London institution through their
love and appreciationofo Disco music in all its forms. The brainchild of James
Hillard and Jim Stanton via the
inspiration of New York nightlife legend Adam Goldstone
(RIP), the idea was to create an alternative party that harped back to the
halcyon days of parties like The Loft in New York
whilst at the same time adapting it for a London crowd. Listen to the upcoming
Horse Meat Disco mix
here!

If
Plugs‘ single, which happens to be Filthy
Dukes‘ label Kill Em All‘s first
single release, “All Them Witches” isn’t one of the best
electro/pop tracks released in recent times I will eat my hat. And I really, really
hate eating hats. Check it out here. The trio, fronted by
sometime Does It Offend You, Yeah? singer Morgan
Quaintance plays at Cargo for the first
time and we can’t tell you how excited we are to have them play at our Yard
Party.

While
he may not be a household name, Adam
Freeland is a legend in the world of electronic music with a
host of releases under his name and several classic compilations (Fabric Live,
Back to Mine). Credited with bringing to the forefront the Nu-Skool
breaks genre, Adam Freeland bridges the gap between electronic music and rock
with ease, making a particularly dark strain of dance music that is still
accessible for the many. Tonight will be a great chance to listen to material
from his new album Coma TM played live at Cargo.

But
first on, and setting the stage for things to come are French Indie Pop band Koko
Von Napoo, a three-girl-one-boy combo who will bring
to us their unique sound referencing Felt, ESG and John Mauss. And we can’t
think of a lovelier way to start proceedings.
