"La Grève Générale had their computers running on overload and almost made the ram packed venue collapse..." - VICE

We are LGG, and we play electro, hip hop, pop, indie, new disco, punk, fidget, electroclash, bmore and other shit we like, and have lots of mixes in our our blog here.

Critically acclaimed by the music blog and magazine world, we have rocked dance floors from dirty East End warehouse raves and squat parties, to the nightspots of Shoreditch, to parties by the likes of MODULAR and VICE, and clubs across the world like Vessel in San Francisco, DSC in Atlanta, Hotel in Barcelona, Klubb Ace in Stockholm, CMJ in New York City, Club Tempo in Vienna, The Mansion in Tallahassee, Fabric, Turnmills, and Egg in London, Stengade 30 in Copenhagen, KB in Malmo and loads more...
