FESTIVAL FASHION BAZAAR BRICK LANE THIS SUNDAY! (next to the truman brewery by the bus n the pink car n that!)
Festival Fashion Bazaar is a one off special pop-up market of independent designer festival-geared fashion and accessories situated next to the Truman Brewery, in Ely's Yard, Brick Lane.
Come and enjoy the bohemian atmosphere as this is not your everyday market! Expect roaming mannequins, bazaar performers from Prangsta Entertainments, Whoopie Club and other festival acts along with Ely's Yard's usual fine selection of world foods.
Expect to see Playsuit Parlour’s cutesy playsuits and shorts, OOPS! Fashion's African/vintage mash up pieces, MissChief Glitz head-dresses, Havelli’s delicately block-printed tent bedding, Temple of Sensuality’s seductive lingerie, Shock and Souls sparkly spectacular french vintage, Lily Vanilli’s exquisite cupcakes, Antic Establishment’s roaming minstrels, Woppie Club’s show girls and much more!!!
Svarte Greiner (Deaf Center/Miasmah/Type) explores deep into a dark, mysterious and disturbing universe. Drawing inspiration from artists such as Earth, Volcano the Bear, David Darling & Deathprod, the music is draped in Lynchian mysticism and horror film cinematics. "The music of Svarte Greiner is practically perfect. It's like that sound in our heads we've been imagining for ages but had never actually heard." - Type Records.
The Sight Below (Rafael Anton Irisarri/Miasmah/Immune) draws as much on modern genre progenitors like Brian Eno, Robin Guthrie and My Bloody Valentine as it does from the more historic traditions in neo-classicism from Erik Satie and Olivier Messiaen. His album Glider has appeared on Thom Yorke's radar in making the Radiohead's lynchpin's top ten playlist.
His debut album Navigare soon to feature on the Miasmah label, Simon Scott (former Slowdive) is set to be a household name in conceptual music. Simon is the former Slowdive drummer, co-producer of Televise, producer of Seavault, and owner of KESH Recordings label.
