Blogwar: Lovethattune.com vs Noiseporn featuring Orbital (Phil Hartnoll)

The year is 2009, the internet has democratised opinion-forming, and suddenly everybody’s a critic. At the heart of the revolution are highly influential blogs whose writers can make or break new acts on the dance scene with just a few pithy words.

So who better to take he reigns of a new party scene in London, than the blogerati themselves LOVE THAT TUNE & NOISEPORN!? That’s the thinking behind Blogwar, a new regular initiative at London’s fastest growing venues, which will task the editors of the UK’s sickest blogs with deciding a line-up to be proud of and more importantly a lineup to represent the current scene.

Lovethattune.com vs Noiseporn.com start things off, with a lineup that spans the gamut of electronic music from the dawn of rave culture to the latest upfront beats. Orbital’s Phil Hartnoll, back on the scene with a bullet in advance of this summer’s comeback gigs for the masters of bleepy, dystopian electronica, will be throwing down a special two-hour DJ set, and get the cities dance fiends ready for the festival season ahead and of course for the sold out gig at Brixton Academy. Supporting the event we have thrown in, north London noiseniks Equalizers who are by far one of the most exciting DJ duo at present bringing together the breaks/electro divide in true jump up fashion.

They will be followed by fellow Londoner Beta, current breakbeat producer of choice for those in the know. He’ll be joined by two label mates from Sweden’s legendary Sound of Habib label, Jariten (who’s flying in from Stockholm especially) and east London sonic terrorist Jurassik.
In order to truly represent new urban london sound, Room 2 will be taken over for the night by south London’s finest purveyors of ghetto bass, dubstep and fidget house sounds, Your Mum, who have been rocking joints across Brixton and beyond for the past two years.

Blogwar is set to shake up the capital’s dance music scene, just when things were getting a little too cosy, bringing a clued up crowd to the heart of Brixton.
