by Noise of Art Team on Jan.11, 2012, under Events

The London show marking the release of Phenomenal Handclap Band’s new LP (Form & Control), sees New York’s purveyors of psych, soul, and cosmic disco enter Noise of Art’s psychedelic steam punk world.
Phenomenal Handclap Band broke through with their US and European club hit ‘15 To 20’. Their sound has roots in New York, San Francisco, San Paulo and London. Imagine Curtis Mayfield and Deee-Lite throwing a Nu-Yorican party with Afro-beat, Cosmic Italo-disco, Turkish psych and ‘70s West Coast music spinning on the decks. Kaleidoscopic grooves doesn’t begin to describe their live sound.
On the 45th anniversary of the UK’s Psychedelic movement, Noise of Art’s new show is inspired by contemporary steam punk and the 19th Century imagery that inexplicably became prevalent in the late Sixties. It imagines that Sergeant Pepper, Pink Floyd and The Avengers were the result of two universes colliding in 1967; throwing people from a parallel steam punk world into swinging London.
The resulting psychedelic Victoriana features coal-fired flower power, contemporary dancers, curiosities of nature, magic lanterns of psychedelic imagery, steam-powered cosmic house, psyched-out-disco and coal-fired techno.
Press about Phenomenal Handclap Band
“Punchier, grander and more focused than their debut… NYC glam dance collective reach for the stars” Q ****
‘…encapsulates the nostalgic elements of ESG, ELO, Tom Tom Club, The Doors and Sly And The Family Stone, applies a gloss of New York cool and then re-packages it with the modern production of the LCD soundsystem, CSS and Beck variety. Forget the handclap, they’ll take a standing ovation.’ – NME
‘With guitars, keyboards, percussion, and two very chic female singers (who seriously know how to rock leather leggings and sleek jumpers)—the crew took its worldly, genre-spanning sound and turned it up about a thousand notches’ -Elle
‘The PHB are astronauts of progressive soul, moored at the stellar point where rock, funk and psychedelia bloom into cosmic-disco amazingness.’ The Guardian
‘Musically diverse, incredibly melodic and dance-floor ready.’ – New York Post
‘With their multitudinous influences, blending funk, soul, reggae, dance, hip-hop and Brazilian beat, as well as rock, disco and electro, they encapsulate the spirit of the Brooklyn underground.’ – The Sunday Times Culture UK

333 Mother
333 Old Street London EC1V 9LE.
£5 8pm – 3 am Friday 27 January
Slipped Disco celebrates its seventh birthday by returning to its Shoreditch roots to start a new residency at the multi floored 333 Mother – one of SD’s first venues. To get the party started Slipped Disco has invited a typically diverse selection of talented acts to play. It’s also hosting the debut outing of The Magic Wheel, which will test the DJs’ versatility by randomly switching music genre.
The 333 Mother launch night sees Slipped Disco returning to its DJ and live music format, with Italo disco and house DJ Severino lining up with Pete Tong’s aide de camp, Nico de Cigelia, as house remix duo Hyena Stomp. Severino is also one of the residents behind the power house of disco that is Horse Meat Disco. Joining them on the decks are disco and techno maestro Serge Santiago, half of Retro/ Grade with Tom Neville, and Slipped Disco host, DJ Ben Osborne.
Meanwhile members of the audience in the Magic Wheel room will spin the Wheel and determine a new genre. Expect to hear music from the sublime to the ridiculous, see wheel-based performances, and have your life changed – or at least turned up-side—down – every half hour or so…
In the live room the selection of fast rising talent sees singer songwriter Kal Lavelle top the bill. Lavelle is Ed Sheeran’s support act of choice and the voice on Artful’s club hit; ‘It Must Be The Bass Line’. Joining her is Music Week’s hotly tipped electronic act Kevin Pearce – live voice of I Monster’s Daydream In Blue hit. Catch him here first.
Brighton’s Tiny Dragons have been storming the UK recently, fronted by one of the most powerful bass playing front women in the country. After a long break, singer songwriter Peter Hepworth signals a renaissance by returning to London for the second time this year. London based Mexican electro act Evokateur caught the attention of Gary Newman last year – who kindly offered to remix their debut single. They join the line-up here in the run-up to their second release.
Amongst the first club nights to embrace London’s neo disco scene, Slipped Disco takes disco as the root of modern dance music, but accepts it’s slipped a bit into other genres. Over the last seven years Slipped Disco’s invited acts from a diverse range of genres to get their groove on. It’s been responsible for introducing many of Paris’ leading electro acts to the capital, alongside leading lights from the Amsterdam house, Norwegian electronica and Italian disco scenes, hosting sub bass and funky jams and diving head first into the capital’s re-emerged house, techno and psychedelic scenes.

The Art Hunt forms a key part of Noise of Art’s immersive club show UFO: Rendlesham Incident, with a club show on the opening Friday night of Latitude (July 16th) and events throughout the weekend.
The theme of these events is inspired by a real incident that occurred in a Suffolk forest in the winter of 1980. Thirty years ago a hapless alien cruise ship landed in Rendlesham Forest next to a US Air Force Base. This was a mistake. The accidental tourist ship was supposed to be landing on the Mountain of Embarrassing Dreams. But the captain, having un-opposable hoofs, entered the wrong data into the ship’s sat nav, so they landed near Woodbridge instead.
During the kerfuffle of getting away from the naturally curious US Air Force, priceless artifacts belonging to the alien tourists were scattered across the forests, towns and fields of East Anglia. Lying lost for 30 years (or a long weekend in alien time), the aliens have now returned to find the lost treasures.
The Rendelsham Forest incident was reported to the MOD by Lt. Cl. Charles l Holt, the deputy commander of the US Air Force base.
Full details of the events are available through Noise of Art’s Daily Newspaper, distributed free at the UFO Disco and on the festival site. The Art Hunt is curated by Suffolk born artist, Mark Scott-Wood.
