Anyone in London want to leap from January to summer just by walking into a pub? Well, we’ve got you. Guilty Feet X The Chill Out Tent at Horse & Groom, Shoreditch from 5pm today. Sunshine guaranteed* *well, sunnny vibes anyway.

End of the longest month is fast approaching… Bringing back the Brighton institution that is GUILTY FEET and celebrating February with a collab at fab disco-pub Horse & Groom (Shoreditch) with our good friends from The Chill Out Tent. Balearic vibes a-plenty!

If anyone fancies listening to almost six hours of beautiful, often melancholic, music I’ve got your back. Here’s the recording from Sunday night, from Walthamstow hangout Wood Street Bear. I’ve been told that it’s not suitable for anyone feeling fragile. www.mixcloud.com/steve_kiw/bl...

Anyone fancy an afternoon in E17… I’m heading across to my favourite gaff with a couple of bags of records and will play from when I arrive (4:30ish) till closing time.

En route to Spurs v West Ham and fully signed up to this being the first game in which both teams will manage to lose.

It was the place to be in 2006.

Sat on the sofa half-dozing through Wet Spam and suddenly having flashback moments to the Idjuts last week… Karat’s Der Blaue Planet hitting the spot, and a biggie that used the same Candi Staton ‘I know’ sample that Altern8 borrowed. Any more @dannykelly.bsky.social or @julesfoddy.bsky.social ?

100%. Spurs’ social media is tone-deaf at the best of times so let’s not hold our breath. But here goes anyway: Come on @tottenhamhotspur.com - do the right thing. Please.

We had some snow. Honest! Can’t remember the last time we had any here (Hove) but it’s a good few years. Do we get a day off or something?

Shout out to @adampowley.bsky.social … they might play in red but it’s less annoying over at Bayern Worthing

Your leader, @dannykelly.bsky.social

So, no gig for me NYE for the first time (non Covid obvs) in almost two decades! So, NYD for the Idjuts all dayer it is. I hear @dannykelly.bsky.social might be in the house too. What’s the deal brother?

If you’re in Brighton today - Boxing Day - and need a respite from family or just want to keep your party going then I’m playing records 3-8 at The Great Eastern pub. Good ones too… and all from this delightful Mr Bongos 7” bag!

So proud to be a small cog in this wheel… such a brilliant song and the album - coming in March - is sublime.

And I do a few bits for Vicious Charm too… and alongside Crooked Man’s impending new album I’ve been working on E R Thorpe’s wonderful music. Her new single came out on Monday… it is a beauty, and comes with a Damian Harris remix of another track too… erthorpe.bandcamp.com/album/human-...

Happy Bandcamp Friday… In another life I’m half of Balearic duo Andres y Xavi. We’ve made a few records. They’re here in case you might be interested… andresyxavi.bandcamp.com/album/bibbles

Something got in a few eyes tonight. Sabres Of Paradise, Concorde II, Brighton.

Second of my short-reads for NuNorthern Soul’s blog went online overnight… File under “old man shouts at clouds” or “not that ‘is it Balearic! argument again ffs” www.nunorthernsoul.co.uk/post/is-it-b...

Can you imagine Keir Starmer taking 10 days off to ride a motor bike & walk a dog at the beginning of a Pandemic doing no work. Because I bloody can’t. Not for one second. Boris Johnson is a disgrace. And Putin loving Farage would be worse. Much worse. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

So spurs were shit today but you know what… De La Soul’s new album is a full on 9/10 and that means just as much. My two teams: one disappoints, the other steps up. #thankyoudave

After subscribing to Jockey Slut for many years and then Disco Pogo since it’s launch a couple of years back the latest edition is my most treasured. Copies are landing on doormats this morning. Balearic Mike suggested I step into his shoes for an issue and write about Saint Etienne’s best moments!

I wrote a piece about the enduring legacy of The KLF’s Chill Out and the numerous homages and tributes that have followed in its wake. Retweets most welcome. #klf #theklf #chillout #ambient

Went to a ‘record fair’ earlier, just one dude and a box of unpriced stuff; went to local shop, came out with two Innovative Communications albums, one from Coda’s New Age series, top nick 12s of SUAD’s £10/£20 to get in and remixes of Testone plus the OG of Skank Bloc Bologna by Scritti Politti.

Lovely gig last night, great crowd in and Alice Palace played a blinder, as expected. No booze for me. Up with the lark and watching the Sussex countryside glow beneath a cloudless sunny sky, from an on-time train. Juat a hilly Hastings half marathon in the post storm winds can spoil my vibe.

Anyone out there in Brighton, this one’s for you… the brilliant Alice Palace is DJing at West Hill Tavern tonight. Me and that Dave Holloway from Do!!You!!! radio are doing the warm up. It’ll be good, and I think you should join us.

Not making much use of this platform. Admittedly @dannykelly.bsky.social & @adampowley.bsky.social had to drag me here but now I’ve dipped my toe in I guess I should make the best of it. Who do I need to follow loves? Make it worthwhile for me!

51 years old and just back on the south coast from a 48 hour round trip to DJ in Stockport. Absolutely made up that I can do that, get to play records alongside some of the best there's ever been - Boardman and Moonboots no less - and still be awake at 8:30 on a Sunday night. Just.

Pops in to check for @adampowley.bsky.social take on the Levy news. My tuppence worth: 1. Odd timing - has he been pushed? 2. Better the devil you know, surely - what do we know about the new guy? 3. Time Sky Sports realised that one podcaster is not a spokesperson for a fanbase. Especially ours!

Yep, this is what I came here for...!

Just when I wanted out of social media they dragged me back in. The truth is I only came over to see how many times @dannykelly.bsky.social had mentioned the words 'Steve' and 'towel' in the same sentence...
