Bindi Beat-Box, 10 Years Celebration of Music Creativity!
There is a Sound that Never Goes Out: 80’s Club Night Returns
Have you lately taken to wearing ludicrously oversized denim jackets with bindi’s across you forehead? Formed an unhealthy obsession with shoulder pads and cried into a pillow while listening to Like A Prayer by Madonna? Have gobstopper-sized gold earrings, tight perms, pom-pom dresses and gold chains, been sending you into inappropriate paroxysms of ecstasy? Not to worry, welcome to the 1980s Darling’s! Too long derided as the decade in which good taste was on point and freedom of creatively and independence style took over, the 80s are now experiencing an over-due revival in Birmingham, spearheaded by the return of a much loved club night, Bindi Beat Box.
Kicking off on Friday 5th February, at The Soho Rooms, celebrating their ten year anniversary, Bindi Beat-Box presented by Shaanti and Funkshaan, two leading promoters will be slamming anthems from the giants of Bollywood Movie Era including Sholay, Taal, Nagina, and Disco Dancer alongside Asian Club Classic’s. Hip-Hop will be spun back and forth, as their Dj’s will be putting the needle on the record on Eric B & Rakim, Missy D, Lisa Lisa & The Cult Jam, DJ Kool, OPP and Naughty By Nature. For those who prefer 80’s – 90’s R&B be sure Soul II Soul, En Vouge and Mark Morrison will be burning down the house!
Bindi Beat Box will be sure to induce levels of excitement crazy enough to rival Shivdevi and Anil Kapoor’s multi-hued mullet. Further information can be found here.
About Bindi –Beat Box
Bindi Beat-Box was a vibrant club night first launched in 2006. Air in Digbeth was all about clubbing, incorporating all the elements of club culture with A-list Djs such as Armin Van Buuren, Paul Oakenfold, Sasha, Erick Morillo frequently headlining this venue, then Bindi Beat-Box, the first Asian club-night, was adding to that list. Each month it presented Asian superstars like Swami, Notorious Jatt, MTV’S Base Hanif, The Sona Family, Ominous DJs, PMC, RDB, Kami K and many others on guest rotation. Having then moved to Dagon Eye on Broad Street a year after, it continued to host a spectacularly loud, no holds barred party celebrating the creative and independent Asian music scene. The opening launch was headline by two of the UK’s finest beat-masters The Kray Twinz, who will be joined by Radio 1’s don Bobby Friction at the launch. Ten year’s on the night makes its official comeback to the music scene.
