This Friday our monthly Heatwave Affair @ The Pool features a live bashment PA from grime MC Riko Dan (Roll Deep)...
Riko's performed at a couple of Heatwave nights before and never fails to excite the crowd with his impressive skills on the mic, boundless energy and unique blend of Jamaican and British influences. Listen to his bashment set alongside The Heatwave back in 2005 here

Thank you very much for the add. 7 May, Trafalgar Square, 11h30 - Rally for long-term irregular migrants who are living in legal, physical, and mental limbo to be issued two year work permits and a chance to belong. They have no where else to go. Denied. Vilified. Criminalised. No benefits. No protection. No future. Britain says: four years and longer is too long to live without hope - let them work and earn the right to stay. Please tell all you can x
Calling all freaks and lunatic performance artists!
We are looking for performers & lunatics to come and join in the chaos and be in an insane rock ‘n’ roll video at our concert at Utrophia, Greenwich, London this Saturday 28th April, presented by Anti-Gravity Enterprises in association with The Touch.
We want perverse performance artists, jugglers, clowns, furry freaks, streakers, exhibitionists, sleazy strippers, sado-masochists, fire-breathers, dwarfs, sword-swallowers, Satanists, bearded ladies, tattooed ladies, pinheads, fetishists, sadists, masochists, flashers, debauchees, wizards, witches, witch doctors, shamanic crazies, Vikings, nudists, reincarnations of King Arthur, mediaeval battle re-enactors, drag artists, fetishists, people who like to dress up in super hero outfits, super-macho mulleted Kung Fu experts, gas mask fetishists, adult babies and anything hitherto beyond our comprehension…
If you’re a performer and you want to be seen in a music video then come along and rock with the pauper princes of fuzzed out funky sleazy cock-rock
****ManTouch****
If you think you can take the smell of male, tattoo, Iron Cross branding tools, stale beer, dirty funk, mansleaze, guitar masturbation, muscle sweat, unrestrained groins and assorted lust excretions - in short, if you think you can feel the Touch of London's only true Men...
then Come be Touched.
