Space, Time & Matter


The scientists of earth are truly a mad race. Refusing to bow to media uproar or public indifference, they've gone ahead and created a Doomsday Machine. Even Dan Brown couldn't change their minds, despite pointing out that the Large Hadron Collider will create 'dangerous antimatter' (possibly to be used as a weapon against the Vatican). The fools!

I am, of course, talking about the recent activation of a large particle accelerator, hidden under the Swiss mountains in an Evil Death Bunker (probably). It's been all over the news, just after the stories on Big Brother and Our Boys In Iraq.

Interestingly, 02 have decided to use this example of science gone mad to boost their new venture - South East London's Matter club night. (They haven't really, but I have employed my prodigious skill with the English language to link particle's and matter together. Hence creating a link between these two completely unrelated topics.) The club will feature both a 'Live' night (usually Fridays), and a 'Club' night (Saturdays). So far, the upcoming lineups look more than impressive. Justice present their 'A Cross The Universe' venture on the 25th of October, and are bringing Electro heavyweight DJ Mehdi along for the party. It should be a good one. Prior to that, hardcore electro favourite OCELOT performs alongside Mylo on the 26th September. They've also managed to bring together Deadmau5, Pnau and Chris Lake on the 2nd of October (a night that would probably turn me into a raving nutter, fueled only by his passion for more electro). My personal favourites - the Mystery Jets - are also performing there in October. Along with various others, who i can't be bothered to list - although Riton deserves a special mention. For more info, see This Is Not London (it actually is London, but whatever).

Anyway, don't ask me why I'm promoting the 02. I guess I just love encouraging corporate bodies to horribly commercialise my favourite artists. Ciao.
