Gigs In Bristol Today

Events on Saturday 25th July

“dreamcastmoe’s beats are a mirror to his life lived and experienced there. “I would not be where I am today if I weren’t from DC,” he says. “You can hear DC in the way that I talk. Certain runs in my voice are rooted to the soul of DC because I listen to a lot of Donny Hathaway and Marvin Gaye. I would say DC has a role in my approach to my music and sets the tone. I’m one of those people that could work with anyone. I always try to bring the best out of people. That’s just how I grew up. I grew up in a smorgasbord of a city where one block could be hood shit and the next block could be the White House. You have to know how to move accordingly through all those spaces.””

“Reload Sound are a DJ soundsystem collective, production crew and event curators founded by Sam LOUDD joining the dots between Hip Hop, RnB, Dancehall, Afrobeats, UK Rap, Reggae, Neo Soul, Amapiano, Grime, Future beats, soundsystem culture and global bass music. Connecting genres, scenes and eras. Drawing for the most impactful tunes of today, alongside exclusive edits, remixes and dubplates, whilst digging deep for selections from back in the day.”
From:

“**H.P. Lovecraft** was born in Providence, Rhode Island, in 1890. He was self-educated and lived in his birthplace all his life, working as a freelance writer, journalist, and ghostwriter. His best work - including some sixty or so short stories - was published from 1923 onwards in the pulp magazine *Weird Tales*. He died in 1937, in poverty and virtually unknown; today he is recognised as one of the great masters of supernatural fiction, the dark father of modern horror with a unique, singular vision. His personal reputation, however, is tainted by his infamous bigotry and bountiful prejudice and misogyny.”
From:

“Controversial on release and still capable of shocking today, *Bad Lieutenant* is an uncomfortable, unforgettable piece of early ’90s independent cinema anchored by a performance that feels less acted than survived.”
