Like a bag of Dolly Mixtures for the ears, this annual event promises something for everyone with an array of musical treats in every room. The Woo Woo Witches are, fittingly enough, confined to the basement where the trio provide a punchy yet assured set of tunes that simultaneously confront and seduce you. Also down in the depths are Union of Knives who rapidly turned the cramped room into a sweaty mass of writhing bodies, although all in attendance retained their clothes. Upstairs, Fuck Off Machete are splicing their own bass-driven efforts with more well known fare. The crowd are relaxed but appreciative and the girl manning the decks makes quite an impression on the male members of the audience. The third floor meanwhile is ruled by White Noise Feedback: Distortion who have the hotel shaking with the stomping of feet and the chiming of cowbells. Someone should have informed the department of Environmental Health that it was all for Oxfam, then they may have looked past the noise complaints and not shut the place down an hour before the end.
