Summer at Patterns Brighton
Thirty years behind the decks and we still get a thrill when we see our names on a poster. Especially when that poster is as stylish as this one – and alongside such distinguished company as well. But then why would we not feel the goosebumps when world class artists and DJs, producers and performers as sound as the likes of Horse Meat Disco, Bitch, … Continue reading Summer at Patterns Brighton

Bitch, Please! is back baby
As we head towards a scorcher of a weekend it seems only weather appropriate that we grab our peachy butts and get set for a sizzler of summer session with the infamous Bitch, Please! as they return to The Tempest Terrace for another party beachside.

Stonewall 50
I want to say thank you. Thank you to the queer darlings, the trans women of colour, the bisexual beauts, the lesbian heroines, the non-binary diamonds. The kitten heeled, DM booted, frock frilling, denim donning wonders of Stonewall Inn who stood up and said no more. No more. No fucking more. Thanks to your bravery this 14-year-old baby dyke back in 1983 had a story … Continue reading Stonewall 50

DJ Screwpulous
It’s that time of year folks. Pride is just around the corner and the evenings are deliciously warm and promising (well – most of the time anyway). Time to wiggle and perfect those moves then! And where better to do this than at Subline, to the sublime sounds of the glorious DJ Screwpulous? So, this month Queenie has a long overdue chat with Daddy Cool … Continue reading DJ Screwpulous
Gscene’s July Wonders
Here’s some hot July jumpers to keep you warm as we banish soggy June to our memory banks and head towards a summer of scorchers. Be it the swell house of Rasmus Faber and his sweet Swedish beats thanks to his longplayer Two Left Feet on Fairplay or the stylish house music transmission that is Anthony Naples new Fog FM on Incienso/ANS, each signal a sound … Continue reading Gscene’s July Wonders
Striking a Zanzibar pose
A little #TBT action from our Strike A Brighton Pose exhibition in 2015 as we remember those heady Zanzibar days ahead of Friday’s reunion at Subline. Flyer artwork courtesy of the archives of Alf Le Flohic, Michele Allardyce and a certain Wildblood. Nice to know I’m not the only collector holding on to these moments of not so ephemeral disco history. The Zanzibar Reunion Party … Continue reading Striking a Zanzibar pose
