Many nights claim to be eclectic and don’t really deliver (it normally just means they have a DJ that cannot mix 2 records together – hence “eclectic”).

Lectic aims to rectify this situation.

Starting this month at 93 Feet East and every following 1st Saturday of the month thereafter...

Doing full live performances on the night will be UK Hip Hop legends Task Force. Hailing from North London, rappers Chester P and Farma G have had a cult / legendary status amongst London hip-hoppers for coming up to 10 years now.

Also performing on the night will be the drummer from the legendary dance outfit The Future Sound of London – Virgil Howe. Coming from a musical family, he is the son of Steve Howe; the guitarist from the prog-rock legends Yes. Virgil has been causing his own buzz with his new live show where he creates a wall of sound with just himself, a drum kit, a loop pedal and a sampler. This live show really has to be seen to be believed.

Also on the night will be young pretenders – Captain Strange. This young outfit blend ska, punk and funk into a modern day sounding Madness for the “Playstation Generation”. In fact, Suggs has gone on record to saying he is a fan of the Captain. It might be time to swap the baggy trousers for some skinny ones now…

The night will be hosted by the on-stage energy ball known as Orifice Vulgatron from the Foreign Beggars outfit and current UK Human Beatbox Champion MC Zani. Between the 2 of them, expect beats, lyrics, and a party to be seeping from their microphones. Soundtracking the night will be some of the finest DJs from all over London.

This is only the first night and the line-ups are only gonna get bigger and better.

Lecic – remember the name.
