“O Baile” returns to London

baileFriday the 2nd of July marks the return of Madame & Lumin’s “O Baile” to London. The chosen venue is the Islington Metal Works, behind Angel tube station and the lineup features two projects who have already made waves in the UK. First up is Oporto’s :papercutz, whose sublime blend of acoustic instruments and electronica has seen them release their debut album on Montreal’s Apegenine Recordings, win an award at London’s prestigious People’s Music Awards, gain praise from BBC presenter Anne Nightingale and XFM’s Eddy Temple-Morris, and receive an invitation to play at the biggest alternative music festival in the United States - SXSW.

Next up is one of Portugal’s hottest dance music projects, Octa Push, whose unique sunshine infused dubstep has seen them go down a storm at such venues as the legendary fabric, festivals like Sonar and Glade, among many others, and has earned them the respect of luminaries such as Thom Yorke and Buraka Som Sistema. The unstoppable duo will once again grace “O Baile” with their highly eclectic and energetic live act.

Make sure to save the date as this is one summer party you can’t afford to miss!

Since Madame and Lumin are always on the lookout for promising young talent, they immediately invited Papercutz to play at the July edition of “O Baile” which will go down at London’s Islington Metal Works, a venue that has hosted everything from concerts, to exhibitions, to Spike Lee’s private parties.

Papercutz são um projecto musical que nasceu no Porto cuja mistura de texturas acústicas e electrónicas os levou a lançarem o seu primeiro album na editora canadiana Apegenine Recordings, ganhar um prémio em Londres no People’s Music Awards, receber o reconhecimento de Anne Nightingale, apresentadora da BBC, e Eddy Temple-Morris, um dos principais DJs da XFM, e serem convidados a tocar no maior festival de música alternativa dos Estados Unidos - a SXSW.

Como Madame e Lumin estão sempre de olho nos novos talentos a emergir de Portugal e Inglaterra, não hesitaram em convidar Papercutz a tocar na edicão Londrina d “O Baile” a acontecer em Julho no Islington Metal Works, um espaço que já foi local de concertos exibições e festas privadas do realizador Spike Lee.
