I mis-read that last bit as 'onion piece' and, for a split second, it all made sense.
Okay, if we were to accept for a moment that grime/video nasties/west coast hippy pop (in the case of charles manson & his followers) causes violence. What do you propose we do about it?
I think the answer is to move away from having live performances and rely solely on DJ acts…the problem is that the Whitechapel doesn’t really work as a DJ-only space, so it’ll probably have to be elsewhere.
I enjoyed the night thought, Stelfox and Woebot sets were exceptional, the film...
Pull up to the bumper baby…
A final push on this one
Your chance to catch Dissensus poster boys Woebot* and Stelfox in action, together with a screening of a documentary about Colombian hip hop in the gallery’s auditorium (starting at 8.00pm) and performance from the audacious Brazilian duo...

also new music scenes need a bit of time to develop and with an...
Shanty House - Friday 3rd November 2006
Shanty House brings a range of global urban music to the Whitechapel – from Baile Funk emanating from Brazilian favelas, to Kwaito the house-influenced sounds of South African townships and Desi, fusing traditional Indian music with Bhangra, hip hop...
Let me bump this one up for this Saturday...Scorcher, Ghetto & Wretch 32 as the Movement, performing with Norwood's finest L.Man, dubstep's finest kode 9 and Kiss FM's finest Logan Sama.
