Lasermagnetic and Warm reunite for another very special one-off event in deepest East London on Saturday April 19th AND Who says pop music can’t be cool? Having a listen to Brooklyn trio, Chromatics’ latest release kills the notion that popular music is only made for the charts. Off of the transcendental label Italians Do it Better, the Chromatics lo-fi electro sound creates a spellbinding soundtrack for all the hot mamas and papas disciples of the music/fashion world. The minimalist disco style on their recent lp “Night Drive” gives kudos to the band finding their perfect place with hit tunes like “In the City” and euphonic covers of “I’m on Fire” and a personal favorite Kate Bush’s “Running up that Hill.”

Redman shows have turned UK fans inside out. (London-April 15, Bristol-April 16, Glasgow-April 20)
