This is a great venue right down to the wooden flooring perfect for Salsa action.

location near Angel Tube & behind Chapel Market in Islington and makes
a nice pre-late-night club session or a whole night out with 'good music' as it's backdrop.
If it's outside of peak time and the tracks are in the DJs bag and they are in the groove then requests are played.

Bring a crowd and I will play the style your crowd likes (within the perimeters of Groove Lineage - IE: no hardhouse, trance or 50 cent)

Yeah, every Friday is the Groove Lineage DJ set, but tonight was just a Prince night.

I have a friend who lives walking distance from Angel, but he SO wouldn't be up for it

That's like sooooo too bad
Sounds good. We have a Prince Special coming up in Paradiso (Amsterdam)
Got my tix.
Anyway, thought of a city-trip this summer, so will drop by on a friday night?!

thanks for the warm comments people!!

I can report back from the GROOVE LINEAGE Friday night frontline - it was a really good party!!

Fairly early on, into the first few songs - people were singing along with the songs, so the good news is - if you missed this one - we will be doing another one in due course, for info on that check back on our page at:
http://www.myspace.com/ke...hclubnight

Or get that info guarenteed to your inbox on our mailing list - to join email:
keepthefaithful@gmail.com



& yes just to clarify - Friday just gone (April 18th) was a Prince special in which I played even more Prince than I usually do - & i did a little crate digging, yes I played some of the hits - but I also played some of his glorious 12" B Sides - which as you will know in his 80s 12" peaks - these were complete master pieces all lovingly self produced with much live takes on.

Just a few of these 12"'s I played on Friday was:
Kiss 12"

Love or Money 12"

Hot Thing 12"

Sexy MF Extended mix.


As said - I play Prince Guarenteed EVERY WEEK on these weekly Friday night sessions.
Come and say hello at the DJ Table if you do attend, say you're from the prince.org site and If I have the track with me at off peak times I do play requests.

Are any of you on facebook?

Thanks again for the interest - I will be back at Hobgoblin, White Lion St, N1 this and Every Friday.

Hi again all,

As you may know Sly & The Family Stone were a major influence on Princes music and performances. - Im back in N1 tonite as I am every night - so this should be of interest purple ones ;0) ...

TONITE!!: GROOVE LINEAGE ~ SLY & THE FAMILY STONE SPECIAL - FREE ENTRY, NORMAL PUB DRNKS PRICES & NO QUEUES AS EVER!!

SEE YOU TONIGHT!! (FRIDAY) ALL

DETAILS.....

Friday nights at Hobgoblin with Groove Lineage are a really is a simple equation:

*SOUL MUSIC
**GOOD PEOPLE
****FREE ENTRY
***** NORMAL DRINKS PRICES

... along with the usual wider from Nu 2 Old SOUL & related music.

SLY & THE FAMILY STONE...

Sly & The Family Stone is Ft Artist on this weeks GROOVE LINEAGE {Soul Related} Session @ Hobgoblin N1

Sly & The Family Stone were / are one of the most influential acts in Soul, Funk & later Hip Hop (re: Breaks).
When they came out they were deeply ahead of their time. The band along with James Brown's band put down the rudiments of funk. Larry Graham was bass player in the band (& later with Prince also) was credited with the original "Funk-Bass-Slap".
Several members of Sly's actual family were in the band - notably Cynthia on Horns - who out down some of the most FLY afrofunk ever IMO.

In addition to all their wide and innovative music touching in many places from funk, soul, psychedelia the band were a multiracial band with some great lyrics and messages.

Their production sound under Sly was unique using many un-othodox techniques such as applying wah wah effects to voice, stereo panning & also some of the first uses of beatboxes (IE: Family Affair).

Some of Sly's music is SOO uplifting and timeless, even his darker lyric'd stuff is just too damn funky for it's own good.
.... with pleasure this week I feature one of my all time fave acts - inc. tracks which have been in my box since my first DJ gig - give it up for SLY & THE FAMILY STONE!!!

Looking fwd to seeing some of you this Friday ,PA

Just a reminder Londoners - I will be once again hosting GROOVE LINEAGE in N1 tonight - free entry all night 9pm-2am - come down if you're near by and request some PRINCE!!

Also I am planning the date of the next Prince spesh... watch this space for a date for that...

Thanks
