HAPPY SHOPPING...................................................................................... Around the World in 80 Ways was one of Russ Jones 'The Hackney Globe Trotter' aptly named clubnights and for Russ - a firm lover of good sounds, funky eyewear and vintage Volkswagens- it is more like a way of life. Russ is behind some of London's most successful clubs including London Calling and No Room for Squares in the mid 90's. Guest deejays included, Gilles Peterson, James Lavelle, Fabio, Bukem & Norman Jay and received accolades such as 'Club of the month' in The Face. Later on Russ moved London Calling to the infamous Blue Note and subsequently became the Artistic Director of the infamous venue. Around the same time Russ also helped to set up the celebrated brazilian record label 'Far Out Recordings' with DJ/producer Joe Davis and worked with acts like Marcos Valle, Joyce, Four Hero and Roni Size. Fast-forward to the middle of the first decade of the 21st Century and Russ has becoming one of the leading djs on 'global beat' scene. From his seminal club night Future World Funk working alongside regular DJ partner Cliffy, he has gone on to compile over 12 compilation CDs including his recent project Gypsy Beats and Balkan Bangers which received props from the likes of Gilles Peterson, Huw Stevens, Mary Anne Hobbs and Osun Lade. Always championing new music Russ also had a hand in singing Panjabi MC for his world-wide hit single Mundian To Bach Ke which lead to the bhangra phenomenon crossing over to many a dance-floor. DJ gigs has literally taken Russ all over the world from Beijing to El Salvador, Moscow, New York, Singapore, Australia, 30,000 people in Gran Canary and all across Europe. Festivals are always a favourite and Russ has hosted and programmed stages and played at Glastonbury, Montreaux, Womad, Big Chill, Womadelaide, Love Box, V and Chicago World Music Festival to name a few. If this is not enough there also a few remixes under his bet including mixes for Bollywood Brass Band, Mahalia Rai Banda and Ska Cubano and in his spare time he likes to admire his glasses collection and sleep.

Revelator Presents:
DELANEY DAVIDSON (Ex-Dead Brothers)
Revelator DJ Set
8-11 Saturday 3rd May
@ Filthy MacNasties 68 Amwell Street, Islington, ED1R 1UU
FREE


Revelator presents an extremely rare visit to London by ex Dead
Brother, Delaney Davidson. A couple of years ago the The Dead Brothers
visited this pretentious little island to stamp in our memory that they were
the best damn funeral party band in the world. They churned up Blues
with Folk, Gypsy, Rock-a-billy and murder. Of course, as soon as they
went we told each other that it was in fact our idea and up sprung any
number of weak imitations - often taking the guise of yet another wild
gypsy band.
The Dead Brothers have split, but before any pitiful opportunist can
jump in their grave, Delaney Davidson & His Ghost Orchestra returns to
be more intense and moody on his own than any classically trained
lesbian punk orchestra.
Support comes from a Revelator dirty blues DJ set. This is a free
gig, but it is advised to wash your hands properly and drink plenty of cranberry juice when it's finished.
