Adventures In Sound & Beat Control @ HMV Picture House

Lothian Road has undergone quite the makeover. As theatregoers flock back to the refurbished Usher Hall and hen-night hellhole Subway is finally swallowed up by the cursed earth from which it emerged, HMV Picturehouse’s announcement of two brand new nights, Adventures In Sound and Beat Control, has given the 'Burgh’s club scene a long-awaited facelift after a year of ‘legal wrangling’; much to everyone’s dismay, proceedings were not overseen by frenzied taps of the gavel from Macho Man Randy Savage QC. Altogether less concerned with a judicial smackdown, Adventures In Sound resident DJ Andy Wilson will host a great big stack of nosebleed electro and righteous toe-tapping indie on Friday nights. Meanwhile, Beat Control will see EVOL founder Keiron Mellote running the rule over Saturday nights with his eclectic offerings of elusive remixes and leftfield hits. Lothian Road: not looking too shabby now, eh?
