SUMMARY:Horse Meat Disco
LOCATION:Hare & Hounds
DESCRIPTION:Initially established in 2004 at The Eagle\, an innocuous gay b
 ar in London's Vauxhall\, Horse Meat Disco(HMD) has evolved into a powerfu
 l force in queer and club culture as a whole\,while staying local to its o
 riginal home\, each and every Sunday. Co-founded by James Hillard and Jim 
 Stanton\, and encompassing residents Severino and Luke Howard\, the crew c
 ontinue to maintain not only the weekly Sunday party\, but a number of res
 idencies in cities across the world\, alongside a kaleidoscope of club app
 earances\, festival dates and specially curated mixes.\n\nTaking inspirati
 on from a diverse\, counter-cultural history of clubs and DJs\, as well as
  from the sprawling\, ever-expanding musical collections of its resident c
 rew\, the sound of HMD is impossible to place. Nonetheless their style is 
 undeniable\, as is a popper-scented air of sheer authenticity which has he
 lped propel the group to international fame. Rooted in hedonism\, rhythm\,
  freedom and emotion\, a Horse Meat Disco set reinforces everything invigo
 rating about disco\, as comfortable as shattering old-school mirror ball c
 liches as basking in their light.\n\nA typical HMD set blends classics\, i
 talo disco\, house\, oddities and punk funk\, to conjure theirinitial spir
 it of "a queer party for everyone"\, including\, but not limited to\, "Hom
 os and Heteros\, club kids\, bears\, fashionistas\, naturists\, guerilla d
 rag queens and ladies who munch." They have made appearances on every nota
 ble club scene in the modern world\, as well as those beyond\, and have lo
 ng been a key fixture at festivals including Glastonbury\, Boomtown and Lo
 ve International.\n\nThey previously held a weekly residency on Rinse FM\;
  where the Horse Meat Disco train rolled across the airwaves to serve as a
  pre-and post-club Sunday lunch accompaniment. A series of expertly curate
 d and acclaimed compilations for reissue label Strut helped further cement
  HMD's formidable but communal reputation as disco masterminds\, spreading
  their sound and many enviable obscurities into front rooms and record bag
 s across the world.\n\nTheir 2020 album "Love and Dancing" marked their fi
 rst full-length studio release\, featuring a mix of original tracks and co
 llaborations which received widespread acclaim for capturing the true esse
 nce of disco\, whilst also pushing its boundaries. The album was the culmi
 nation of seven years' work\, fashioned from demoes the four had been work
 ing on simply for the love of making music.\n\nFree of cover versions and 
 lazy samples\, it is documentary evidence that disco has a present and fut
 ure every bit the platinum-grade equal of its storied past. After decades 
 of crate digging\, globetrotting and partying\; the HMD story continues ap
 ace.\n\nMinimum age: 18+\n\nBoletos: https://ra.co/events/2400343
