wade through a tonne of demos that people send in.”

Rob Luis: “Well, like I said my background is a DJ and I buy a lot of records to play. Often I will come across an artist approach them to discuss putting out material with us. For instance I had a bamboo LP before we signed them. At the moment though I’d say we receive about three to five demos a day and I personally listen to every one. D-flat and Stonephace are two artists which sent in their material and were subsequently signed to the label in this way.”

BN1 talks to Rob-Luis, Head of Quality Control, for TRU THOUGHTS, Brighton’s world famous record Label.

In October, Tru Thoughts celebrated their tenth birthday at the Brighton Coalition. The enormous turnout was testament to the continuing strength of this indie label which refreshingly structures the business around the music rather than the other way round. In the wake of the Tru thoughts tenth anniversary party, BN1 caught up with Rob Luis, “the ears” of the label which originally gave us Bonobo and continues to release for Quantic, the Quantic Soul Orchestra and Nostalgia 77.

BN1: “So Rob, your tenth Birthday at the Coalition was more than certainly a success, do you think it demonstrated a large awareness of your label and its output?”

Rob Luis: “Definitely. People kept coming up to me all night and wishing us a happy birthday.”

BN1: “With a successful tenth anniversary behind Tru thoughts,

what can you tell us about your plans for next year?”

Rob Luis: “Well I can’t give away too much, but there are plans for a regular club night and at least 14 new releases including some new signings and releases for the bamboos, Zero BB and Quantic.

We’re also planning a Shapes compilation.”

BN1: “ I noticed a lot of Dubstep being played at your night at the coalition, that’s not something I’d typically associate with Tru thoughts, is dubstep something that will increasingly come to characterize the label and the artists its signs?”

Rob Luis: “Again that’s something that I can’t give away too much about but we’ve been chatting to someone in that scene.

Personally my background is as a DJ, in fact it was probably me playing the Dubstep you heard and it’s clear that Dubstep has a large dance-floor appeal. That’s something I’m very aware of.”

BN1: “With regards new signings, do you guys source most of the new artists yourself or do you

BN1: “So you actively encourage new artists sending you their material. Is there a best way an artist can do this to get your attention?”

Rob Luis: “With computers increasingly aiding home production there is a certain level of production we look for. However I will often talk to people who have sent us a demo and told them just to keep in touch and often given them recommendations about how to improve their output. What I would recommend if you are sending us tracks, is to just send us your three best songs rather than your three best songs spaced out over an albums worth of other material. There are things we really need if people are planning on sending us material which artists may take for granted. We actually have a section on our website dedicated to recommending the format which will best get our attention.”

The Slits

10th October - Review

When going to see bands perform outside of the era in which they made their name; after the decade when they spoke to an eager generation that were in tune with the message their music was sending out, there is always the risk that parts of the act will be lost in translation or simply that the group just can’t rework the magic they once had. The Slits are the seminal all female punk group of the late seventies and tales of their outlandish live performances and unique performance style precede them. On a new tour and promoting their new album, ‘Trapped Animal’, the girls steamed into Brighton on an unusually warm October evening to showcase their raw unadulterated brand of reggaepunk to the stages of the Concorde 2. Would the Slits still be up to unleashing hell on stage after all these years? There was only one way to find out….

As the lights went down and supporting act, Wet Dog took the stage, there was an embarrassingly miniscule crowd dispersed in the venue and I was hoping that this was just one of those cases of the audience being fashionably late, luckily I was right and although Wet Dog had to perform to a disappoint-

ingly small, yet enthusiastic crowd (lovingly fronted by the Slit’s front woman), by the time the main act took to the stage there was a sea of eager punters stretching back as far as I could see.

Lead singer Ari Up was a true force to be reckoned with from the moment she bounded onto the stage with an impressive fountain of dreadlocks piled on her head and an outfit that that only could be described as a futuristic mix of seventies retro and cheeky country girl.

The band’s current incarnation consisted of the aforementioned Ari Up; initial founder of the Slits, alongside long term bassist, Tessa Pollitt and three new recruits; Anna Schlute, Adele Wilson and Hollie Cook (who is the daughter of Sex Pistols drummer Paul Cook). The girls burst into renditions of songs from their debut album, ‘Cut’, and Ari’s distinctive bird noises and singing style were soon filling the venue getting a loyal fan base moving on the dance floor.

Ari Up is one of those people that was born to be a fronting a band, she oozed heaps of self confidence intertwined with boundless energy and a good sense of humour. Highlights of

Two Spot Gobi, Bushwalla and Koala Friday, Komedia, Tuesday 10th November. 7pm – Midnight.

We’re chuffed that Brighton’s best (in our opinion!) band Two Spot Gobi, are back from their Summer in California, and are going to be back playing at Komedia, home to some of their finest gigs to date.

And if it wasn't enough for them to be playing at one of Brighton's finest music joints, they are going to be joined by the amazing Bushwalla! This crazy haired maestro is set to entertain the masses like no other.

the evening certainly have to include the live fight on stage with keyboard player Hollie, and Ari’s booty-shaking dancing in various states of undress throughout the show. The music flitted from raw punk anthems so grinding reggae and dancehall beats in the blink of an eye. The band played tracks from their new album but inevitably the biggest crowd pleasers were their famous hits from ‘back in the day’; ‘Heard it Through the Grapevine’, ‘Typical Girls’ and ‘Shoplifting’.

The whole set was a joy to watch from start to finish as up on stage were band members that had a lot of love for each other and who obviously enjoyed playing together. It was also great to see a bunch of females on stage really showing that they could musically square up to the boys who so often are the forerunners in this type of music. Could the Slits still create that magic on stage they once had? Well, I wasn’t there the first time round but, if I had been and they performed anything like they did at this show, I would not have been disappointed.

By Jen Blakeley

Opening up the proceedings will be super-tight local band Koala Friday. They have been recording some seriously cool new music in Wales over the past few weeks, so make sure you get there early to catch all the excitement!

Two Spot Gobi

VV Brown 18th Nov - Concorde2.

The Los Angeles Times and The Independent both named VV Brown as an artist to watch in 2009. High praise indeed but P. Diddy’s failed attempt to sign VV Brown to Bad-Boy Records bestows an additional credibility upon this artist who also turned down a place at Oxford. Brown’s debut album, travelling like the light, on which she wrote all the music and played many of the instruments, was nominated for the BBC’s sound of 2009 award. In Brown’s own words it is “musical mashed potatoes” and according to the Los Angeles Times it is a work of “pure, whimsical fun”. Drawing inspiration from the music of the 1950s and Nintendo sounds, VV Brown brings her joyful brand of retro indie punk rock to the Concorde II this November. Doors Open 20:00, ages 14+, tickets £7.50 in adv + bf, live (tickets available).

The Specials – 19th November - Brighton Centre Pioneers of the Punk and ska era, the Specials began the British ska revival movement combining rock steady beats with punk's energy and mind-set, and Brighton is lucky enough to welcome them later this month. They will be playing in the one and only Brighton Centre on Thursday 19th November, and, taking on a more determined and clued-up social stance than their predecessors, The Specials guarantee a night of undeniable musical meaning and lyrical mastery. This stands as one of Brighton’s most important events for ska-lovers and skankers alike for months to come, as these veterans of the industry are sure to take us for an unforgettable ride on this winter’s night. The Brighton Centre is ideal for such a big name act; the expansive centre never fails to satisfy with live events and we at BN1 will not miss this event. We will be there with our skanking shoes at the ready, and advise you to do the same.

Officially: We Can. Not. Wait.

Ugly Duckling Digital -23rd November On Monday the 23rd November, HipHop veterans Ugly Duckling are going to take us on another Journey To Anywhere as they weave their masterful lyrics around us, leaving us bumping around to fresh beats and classic hits, and completely overwhelmed by their original and lovable style. These guys really are the bees’ knees of HipHop from the US, and their undeniable style is sure to get us all dancing, singing, rapping along and their personalities alone will leave us wanting more. As far as freshness goes, this trio summon up rap from all corners of the globe, and present it in such a way that once the night is over you feel as if you’ve seen both a show and a live band perform. With charisma and personality going through the roof, this is an event for anybody that wants to have tons of fun and enjoy some slick lyrics and turntablism in a prime HipHop environment. Digital is ideal for U.D, it is intimate but with plenty of space to dance. We at BN1 would not miss this one for the world, these guys are amazing.

Manouchska Meets Trousseaux A night In with BNW Productions

After a somewhat entertain-

ing hour long session of power failures and edgy sound checks at the hands of the opening two artists, Saturday evening’s entertainment at the Ocean Rooms finally got under way and the doors flew open to a not so large hoard of people.

The stage was set for a small scale collection of bands and fans to sway the night away to a quirky if not eclectic mix of Brighton based musicians.

Both of the opening acts of the evening had interesting stories to tell, which was reflected in their contrasting styles of gypsy ska (Manouchska) and haunting contemporary rock (Trousseaux). Manouchska had a sound which was so inconsistent that it is either symbolic of their sheer ability as musicians to apply their skills to many disciplines, or that they simply have little direction. Despite my deeply entrenched cynicism with regard to the integrity of some musicians, I am inclined to believe that it is perhaps a combination of the

two. It soon became apparent that funnily enough, they have the talent to be free spirited and thus they maintained little direction successfully. At any given moment they seemed to move between Parisian jazz, gypsy folk, ska and punk. Possible influences to sight would have to be The Clash, The Specials, Steve Earl and Orchestra Baobab. (For those of you unfamiliar with the latter check out this fusion of Afro-Cuban jazz music at www.myspace. com/orchestrabaobabofficial).

Manouchska overlapped chilled reggae beats with a gritty and at times vicious overtone synonymous with ska and punk.

The result was effective and yet a little frustrating, never really knowing where any one beat was going is perhaps indicative of little musical structure in their songs. However, it was never dull and the volatile nature of Manouchska’s music is arguably what good live acts are about, unpredictability. Where Cash smashed stage lights and Dylan

went electric Manouchska harnessed no discernable genre whatsoever. The standout track for this reporter was ‘Yankee Dollar’, a song written about the prostitution industry. Their scratchy aggressive style was the perfect tool to give more emphasis to the lyrical content which focussed on the tough and precarious life of a street walker.

Next in line for the night were Trousseaux with their brand of ghostly alternative rock, serving as the perfect contrast to the edgy gypsy rockers who opened the bill.

The lead singer and leader of Trousseaux, Virginie Lauret, explained to me the significance of her band’s name in the following way; her French origins inspired the use of the term that translates as a bundle or collection of things bound together, like a band, hence the use of ‘Trousseaux’. The incredibly apt band name aside, the act perhaps suffered most from the small venue which unfortunately couldn’t successfully harness the darker intense sound of Lauret’s group. Every separate aspect of the music was so tightly bound together at times they were indeed a trousseaux, a bundle of evidently talented musicians who at times couldn’t stand out from one another. The vocals simply struggled to come through and for such an intimate venue the fact of the matter is you expect to be able to grasp all the areas of the music. However, despite the fact that they failed

Brighton Live

to really do themselves justice here I would highly recommend you give them a look else where.

Tracks such as ‘La Nuit’ that did penetrate the unrelenting blur of sound showed Trousseaux’s song writing ability in abundance. Their influences as sighted on their myspace page such as Belle and Sebastian, Regina Spektor and Animal Collective became more and more apparent with their guitar heavy yet soulful sound.

Ultimately, despite their struggle with their own limitations in a venue of this size they produced a solid session of musical expression, which was perhaps less effective than that of Manouchska, but no less exceptional in its musical pretensions.

We sent our intrepid reporters out onto the streets of Brighton to discover what

BRIGHTON LIVE had to offer!

Where the first half of the week

sees the streets patrolled by countless processions of police vehicles, the streets in the second half is seemingly taken over by wandering packs of young people with soft guitar cases strapped to their backs.

These itinerant herds, with their dorsal fin-like nylon appendages, are not representatives of a bizarre emergent branch of gang culture but part of the enormous number of performers appearing at this year’s BrightonLive music festival.

Born from a shared yearning to

promote Brighton and Hove’s substantial music scene, this four day extravaganza aims to give the city’s unsigned bands and musicians a platform to reach out to new audiences.

Featuring over 150 bands displaying their wares at 20+ venues, this enormous celebration of local music does seem to provide something of a headache for any naive prospective reviewer.

Undaunted by the size of the event we blithely vow to cram in as many bands as possible.

The start of the event is an understated, but quite beautiful unplugged show from Walker.

The sentimental, and occasionally melancholic, songs from this act are reminiscent of the more

contemplative of Neil Young’s early compositions.

The Unitarian Church on New Road provides a strangely fitting venue for this gentle acoustic lunchtime performance, in the first of a series of gigs organised by BBC Southern Counties as their contribution to the festival.

The start of the Wednesday night promises a rockier stable of bands, as our tightly planned timetable takes us down to Audio to take a peek at Gentlemen Starkey.

We are instead met with 70’s Cop and their fiery angst-ridden hard-rocking wall of sound.

Sporting a new drummer, prompting rumours of the previous drummer’s demise in a bizarre Spinal Tap style incident, they play a superb set.

It soon becomes evident that the order that the bands feature on the website bears no relation at all to the actual order of things.

Refusing to be unnerved by our now inadequate preparations we press on into the night, willing to now let luck dictate what bands we see.

We wander round to the Latest Music Bar and thankfully catch Duke Raoul and their sweeping indie-style strumming tearing up the upstairs bar. They’ve attracted a good sized crowd, and make it look ever so effortless.

We pop back round the corner to

check out what’s happening at Audio. This time we actually get to see Gentlemen Starkey. They don’t fail to deliver either.

Their spacious surf-rock is a glorious melange of influences and lead singer Joel is clearly a born performer. He roams the minuscule stage all but demanding that the crowd give him their full attention. If there’s any justice in the world, then this band will end up playing in the gigantic venues where they obviously belong.

Out into the night air for a crafty cigarette and then back to the Latest bar to catch, suitably enough, the fantastically monikered Dogend Disco. Their upbeat garage punk mantras are a world apart from the posturing over-styled rock groups that litter the musical landscape these days, and that’s what makes them special.

Sounding much like a English version of the Cramps, they are undeniably enjoying themselves up on that stage.

After leaving the Latest Bar we decide to scoot over to the North Laine’s My Hotel to see if there is any chance of catching the electronic pop weirdness of Stars And Sons before bedtime.

As with most of the night we find on arrival that we’ve failed spectacularly and instead had to contend from an acoustic performance from Aaron King

Brighton Live

It is actually a pleasant revelation, despite that the mere mention of an acoustic singer songwriter would usually send us running and screaming in the opposite direction. His gentle and thought provoking performance provides a soothing and satisfying end to the first night of BrightonLive.

The next night we discover that the booklet circulated to promote the event does actually have a proper timetable of events, so armed with this new information we start our evening at Hectors House hoping to see Camembert Electrique.

They are there... but sitting around drinking instead of playing. We’re told that they would be starting late for some reason. With an hour to kill it’s decided that it’s best to check out something else in the interim.

Po Na Na looks like a good option, and it proves to be. Upon rocking up we’re met with a stellar set from young upstarts Wide Boy Generation.

Playing with skill and maturity way beyond their years, they are the big discovery of the week.

There is no denying any comparisons with a certain other geezerpunk trio from the late 70’s. But they take their influences, mix them with a very modern sensibility and blast their adoring audience with fiery attitude-laden pop tunes.

I’d be surprised if there wasn’t a nod of approval from Lord Weller of Woking for these young upstarts in the near future.

Dogend Disco

We’re buzzing over what we have just witnessed on our spirited walk back to Hectors House. It’s going to be a tough act to follow, but Camembert Electrique do a pretty good job. Annoyingly enough, we have to cut short our enjoyment of their spiky guitar funk rock to trudge back to Po Na Na. We’re getting sick of walking across Victoria Gardens by this point, but our spirits are quickly lifted by the bass heavy sound of PrjctMyhm.

Although Dub step is still very much an underground thing, it’s entirely possible that this lively electronic trio could be onto a winner here.

They certainly seem to attract the biggest crowd of the evening. In an event offering a plethora of punk acts they seem to have the most punk-rock attitude in town, and there’s not a guitar in sight.

Decidedly less punk and thankfully just next door, we catch Laylanas at Madame Geishas next.

Their heavenly soaring brand of country music is a world away from anything we’ve heard this week.

It’s almost like we’ve been spirited away to some rowdy semi-derelict bar in an American southern state.

The evening eventually comes to a close, or so we think. Walking home past Hectors House we realise that, unlike the rest of the venues participating in the festival, they are still rocking inside.

Further investigation reveals a fabulous turn from Q-Tone. With

a lead singer cast from the same mould as Debbie Harry and Patti Smith, this band exudes rock and roll attitude by the bucketful. But despite the energetic guitar licks and explosive drums there’s a sensitivity here that’s impossible to resist.

So, the question is what did we learn from this week’s music seeking manoeuvres?

Well, if you are in a band - then girls are more likely to talk to you, don’t believe everything you read on the internet, Hectors House is quite possibly the cheapest place to drink in the city centre, the sound engineer at Po Na Na is pretty good at his job and Brighton’s music scene is alive and kicking, and it’s screaming to be heard.

ZT Fight Night! - Hove Town Hall - October This was my first

visit to a Fight Night of any kind and I was a little unsure of what to expect. Obviously I’d watched major boxing bouts on TV in the past, as well as the Saturday morning pantomime wrestling as a kid, but this was to be my first time watching live fighting, away from West St anyway.

Initial impressions from the hordes of exclusively male smokers skulking around outside were that this was to be a visceral testosterone fuelled night of baying for blood.

However, as I entered Hove Town Hall it was revealed that the event had gathered a much broader church of spectators for the night. Around 800 people from all walks of life had come down for the show, several with their children in tow.

ZT’s Fight Night

event is organised by Hove’s very own ZT Fight school and is now one of the biggest events of its kind in the South East, with many of the schools athletes’ using it as a stepping stone to bigger things. Already some of the fighters who have won at this show have gone on to fight in the phenomenally successful Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), including John ‘The Hitman’ Hathaway who is due to fight at the UFC 105 event in November. Oli Thompson has also fought on the ZT Fight Night card and is now ranked one of the top ten heavyweights in the UK for MMA, as well as being crowned Britain’s Strongest Man in 2006.

It’s not been an easy passage for the ZT Fight Nights though. Several years ago there was a battle with certain morally-outraged residents of

Hove, who saw it as no better than human cockfighting and took every step possible to stop such an event to even go ahead.

Thankfully it was soon realised that the streets of the city wouldn’t descend into chaos just because of an organised fighting event and ZT’s Fight Night has gone from strength to strength ever since.

This evening offered a full evening’s entertainment of different fighting styles, including Boxing, Hybrid Kickboxing and Mixed Martial Arts (MMA).

Aside from the increased range of disciplines on the display the other big difference, between this and any other fighting contest I’d seen, is the ring which was larger and featured eight sides.There’s certainly no hiding in the corners who once you step into this ring. From the

moment that the bell rings all you have to think about is how to best beat your opponent.

Competitors from the ZT Fight Skool stable were taking on opponents from all over the country, all of them eager to make their own mark on the fighting scene. As the night progresses it becomes clear that there’s a lot more to these proceedings than some unadulterated blood lust.

Many young males are currently flocking to combat sports, both as fans and as athletes. Participation brings discipline and demands that you be in tremendous physical shape. To be considered an accomplished fighter, particularly in the kick-boxing or MMA variants, you need exceptional skills in striking, take downs, submissions and seemingly endless stamina. But most of all you need have a lot of heart.

The first impression might be that you just have to hit and knock your opponent out, but it goes far beyond that. A

www.photosbydavid.org.uk

deeper analysis reveals there’s a great deal of technique involved.

Every hold of striking blow has a number of reactionary moves, and replying to these moves there are an even greater number of reactionary moves. A really good MMA fight can quite easily be compared to virtuoso ballet performance rather than a simple exchange of blows. The outdated popular conception of this kind of event was that they were filled with uneducated gorillas that liked to get in the ring and basically kick the crap out of each other. There’s certain quarters of society who still view fighting as an ugly thing, as a something that denigrates mankind. But in reality, fighting is all around us.

Getting out of bed, first thing in the morning, is a fight. Holding down a job or relationship is a fight, struggling to be recognised and taken seriously on a planet of billions of people can be a fight.

But in daily life there are few validations that you’re a real

www.ztfightskool.com

winner. Up there in the ring there’s a precious opportunity to really show that you’ve got what it takes to be the best.

Regardless of if you are a fan of boxing or MMA, or are completely inexperienced when it comes to these kind of contests, ZT Fight Night has something thrilling and strangely beguiling to offer.

This was my first ZT fight Night event and I certainly hope it won’t be the last.

Food & Drink Kensington Gardens Cafe Situated on Kensington Street, slap bang in the middle of the boho North Laines, the Kensington Gardens cafe is perfectly placed for city slickers to take a load off and refresh and fortify themselves. Serving food so moderately priced, only the view of the streets below the balcony seating area can remind you that you’re in the bustling centre of an otherwise pricey European city.

(If you’re lucky you could spy Superhands from Peep Show or the Jesse’s Diets guy from The Fast Show.)

Food is also served promptly. In fact, in all the countless times I have frequented Kensington Garden’s cafe, I can’t remember an occasion where it ever took the friendly staff more than five minutes to deliver a Cheeky phone snap! tasty platter.

Equally impressive is the quantity of reasonably priced meals offered by Kensington’s. They can put virtually anything you want in baguette or a baked potato, you can build your own burger and the staff will happily mix and match any of the foods they serve and which listed on chalk boards cover three sections of the walls of the interior. For the ladies, they guy who works behind the ordering counter looks a lot like Johnny Depp. Serving a wide array of hot and cold drinks and providing ample seating inside and out, Kensington Garden’s comes highly recommended for fry ups or just a voyeuristic, freshly made latte on the seating gallery outside: Five Stars.

The Katarina Harvester, Brighton Marina If you are looking for a trendy pub with modern decor and an upbeat atmosphere, this is not the place you want to go. The service is dour and unenthusiastic, the salad bar is slightly tacky and the handles of the sauces could sure use a wipe, but the food is cheap, cheerful and hits the spot every time. In fact, it is for that reason that you’ll find me there on a fairly regular basis.

If you get there before 6:30pm you can take advantage of their early bird menu, and for a spicy chicken burger plus free salad bar for just £4.99 you’re guaranteed to leave with a full stomach feeling like you’ve gotten great value for money.

There’s a different bar menu served downstairs, although you can order from the restaurant menu and take advantage of the balmy evenings before they get too cold to enjoy.

With their somewhat open kitchen you can keep an eye on your food as it is being prepared and trust me, once your order is placed, the chefs’ don’t waste any time getting your food on the grill and to your table, so it’s a great, reliable place for a good meal before heading over to the cinema or to one of the many pubs. A definite winner in my book and once they have injected some enthusiasm into the waiting staff you’ll probably find me there more often!

Food & Drink

Brighton Open Market I guess I’m just a little old fashioned in that I love the smaller food markets, chatting to the stall holders who can passionately tell you exactly where the produce they are selling comes from. It’s no different from walking through the aisles of the supermarket; here you just walk through the stalls in the market where you can buy fresh fish, possibly the best bacon (an absolute steal at £1.90 a pound). There’s the cheesemonger with his funky tractor - driving cow mural, Jay the super – friendly egg man who sells free range eggs at just £0.90 for 6, or visit CH Mears fruit and veg stall which has been operated by the family since it was started in the 1920’s by Pat Mears’ grandfather.

Take a break and watch the world go by at the Cafe in the Open Market with a cuppa before moving on to pick up your organic flours, pasta’s and produce as well as specialist raw ingredients and superfoods.

If you pop your washing up liquid bottles in your bag as you leave the house, Pulse also refills ecover products at a very reasonable price. You can also pick up a bargain or two from the other stalls selling plants and herbs, haberdashery, bric a brac or used tools.

All in all, a fabulous trip into the world of old where meals were planned around what was available and fresh, where people stopped to chat and service was warm and friendly. And when you get your shopping home and taste the ocean freshness of your fish, the warm sunshine in your beef tomatoes or see the fantastic quality eggs it’ll all be worth it.

Brighton’s open market is a Brighton institution and while its appearance is deceiving with its tired and shabby facade, it is well worth exploring to find some of Brighton’s treasures.

The Booze Hound !

McEwan’s Champion Autumn is now firmly upon us….the season of mellow fruitfulness. As the nights draw in and the daytime recedes into the long winter months, a spectre of gloom hangs heavy like Cicero’s Damocles. “Laughter is the sun that drives winter from the human face” suggested Victor Hugo, failing that you could always try a generous dose of McEwan’s Champion Ale. Now part of the Scottish and Newcastle division of Heineken, McEwan’s are most famous for their mediocre yet enduring ‘export’ brand. Unlike the ‘export’ this 7.3% (abv) offering is a rich Christmas pudding of a beer guaranteed to warm even the frostiest of cockles. Its deep ruby hue is one you would expect from a strong winter ale. With bundles of preserved fruit flavours and hints of toffee and chocolate, some may find the finish a little on the sweet side. Personally I like the balance between the burnt caramel notes and the deep boozy punch. If, like me, you find winter to be a joyless, crushing bleakness, an all-consuming wretch of bitter interminable misery, punctuated by spiteful melancholy, then take solace in this warming winter wonderland of a beer.

Available at Tesco £1.67 for 500ml bottle. . www.bn1magazine.co.uk

Ojos de Brujo Catalonian force of nature Ojos de Brujo bring their ever popular live act to Brighton in November playing at the Dome on Sunday 29th November for their first UK shows since 2007. The winners of the BBC3 World Music awards in 2004 mix a heady blend of flamenco, raga, hip-hop and rumba with recent star turns from Nitin Sawhney and Asian Dub Foundation. The tour will be previewing tracks from brand new album Acoana. Andy Hollis from BN1 caught up with the delightful DJ Panko from Ojos de Brujo to find out more‌..

Your name, Ojos de Brujo translates into English as Eyes of the Wizard. Why did you choose this name and where did it come from ?

It comes from when we started as a couple of friends looking for names for the band with various suggestions. The eyes are seen as the window to the soul and wizard is a flamenco

compliment so we eventually settled on that.

Your music has been described as a blend of nu-flamenco and hip-hop. How would you

Interview: Ojos de Brujo

Historically it’s been difficult to translate foreign language music to a UK market – what has your reception in the UK been like ?

We were very surprised the first time we played here at the amazing level of support.

BBC 3 gave us their award for best World Band which naturally helped. The UK fans have a very open attitude to investigating music and it’s a way for them to investigate flamenco. It’s been the same in Holland and Sweden. With the ERASMUS programmes in place it has become quite usual for cultures to mix and we’ve always found the UK fans very accepting.

And how about your time in Brighton ?

I would definitely live in Brighton if I lived in England.

It’s nowhere near as hectic and stressful as London, plus we seem to be very popular in Brighton.

describe your music and what influences do you have ?

We don’t just play flamenco and hip-hop, we try and open up music we know. It ranges from the electronica of British bands through to North African beats, Indian beats and Latin music.

Our influences are worldwide.

Perhaps we are evolving flamenco but there is much more to it than that.

You split from your record company following your debut album and formed your own label to release the highly successful Bari – why did you feel the need to do that ?

It was just a way of doing things – we wanted to be able to do things ourselves without the demands of others placed on us. It was hard work but we had great feedback and toured Bari across the world.

How have the last two albums (Techari and Acoana) differed – how do you feel as a band you have progressed ?

Techari and Acoana are still on our label but we have distribution by Warner now. In Techari you can hear we are more solid as a band, it’s a much more complete and solid album.

The newest album, Acoana is quieter with less Latina style mothering from our singer !

As a band you look to address social issues – what are the main problems you perceive socially today ?

Yes, we are asked to play at demonstrations quite a lot.

We are particularly concerned with the imbalance across the world’s economy and the lack of possibility for the less fortunate and their right to speak. We just feel life should be a happy and positive experience. We are political but we want to promote a positive message rather than a political one. If you can change the soul for one moment then you can find happiness.

Finally then, how do you think Rafa Benitez is performing at Liverpool ?

I was born in Barcelona so my main concern sits with the performance of Barca. I think Pep Guardiola is very good for the team as he was born here and has lived and played in the history of the team. Of course I was surprised by our recent loss to Rubin, but there’s no worries.

I’m confident in Pep !

Entertainment GOOGLE CHROME With only 3% or so of the market share and less than a year since its release, it’s unlikely you will have heard of Google Chrome. Like Opera and Firefox, Chrome is a free to download program that is aiming to chip into some of the monopoly that Microsoft’s Internet Explorer currently has on the world’s internet browsers. The open-source project recently released the 3.0.195.21 update, which has improved the stability of the software and has also granted users more customisation, including the option to download new themes. Chrome is undoubtedly faster than Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari, plug-ins work smoothly and Javascript performance is fantastic. Sometimes certain downloads and applications are not compatible with the browser, which can be frustrating, so it’s always best to have a back-up browser just in case. The interface is minimal, meaning users can view their website of choice with very little GUI in the way. Bookmarks can be displayed in a row along the top, and the address bar is doubled up as a Google search bar. Users can also search Google in a new tab by right-clicking on any text on a webpage and the tab mechanic is designed so that malware and other harmful sites cannot affect other open tabs.

The new update’s features are likely only noticeable to existing Chrome users, and the mighty Opera is still probably the best overall web browser available, though the 66% of internet users that are still stuck using Internet Explorer should definitely consider downloading Google’s latest alternative.

SCRIBBLENAUTS It’s truly wonderful that we are living in an age where technology is constricted purely by human creativity, and here is a game that takes that notion to the extreme. It’s hard to describe exactly which genre the new Nintendo DS game ScribbleNauts fits into best. After slamming the game into the dusty old handheld, the player is presented with a boy standing in a grassy forest and no instructions whatsoever; aside from the rather ambiguous START text at the bottom of the screen. Skipping forwards through five minutes of experimentation and tutorial, the player is soon tasked with removing a ball from a tree. The unusual thing about this game however, is that the player can do almost anything in order to retrieve the ball, using a system in which the player can conjure any item or object onto the screen by simply writing it. You can write ‘ladder’ and then climb the ladder to get the ball. You can write ‘helicopter’, ‘’lasso’ or even ‘sniper rifle’ to retrieve the ball, the options limited only by the imagination of the player. Of course the puzzles increase in complexity as the game progresses, and there are some words that are off-limits, namely proper nouns, drugs and rude words. No ‘Paris Hilton’ ‘cocaine’ and ‘dildo’ then. The game is spectacular in its range of possibilities and the sadistic joy of lowering a bureaucrat into a pool of sharks or confronting an atheist with God never fails to bring a smile to the player’s face. The scope of the toolset is truly overwhelming, though the gameplay and control mechanic are somewhat flawed, with repetition and awkward character movement eventually occurring so frequently that the game becomes frustrating after long periods of play. Nevertheless, ScribbleNauts is a fantastic game to play whilst on the train or bus in short bursts and only those with no imagination will fail to see the fun side of the game. This is probably the best game on the DS this year, and should be on any DS-owners Christmas list come December.

PICJOKE.COM There have been Photoshop-mimicking websites around for a while now, and although many are surprisingly powerful and provide a decent amount of tools with which to modify your pictures, all of them require some skill on the user’s behalf. Enter picjokes.com, a site where you need nothing more than your curiosity and a working index finger in order to create an effect on your images. The process couldn’t be easier, just choose the effect you want then submit the photo that you want to use it on and within ten seconds you have the finished modified image back. Of course, the site is limited in the amount of effects it offers, and some of them are fairly pathetic. As Picjoke uploads a new effect every day, there is reason to go back, though if you are handy with a Photoshop wand then it’s probably best to keep well clear. Otherwise, for those with a busy schedule or with no editing prowess at all, Picjoke is great for adding a quick effect to your photos or for fooling around with the different filters: it’s just unfortunate that most of them are rather silly.

Anyone familiar with the Brighton hip-hop scene will know that it harbours a diverse array of characters, many of whom are ‘promiscuous’ in the musical sense of the word. The beauty of hip-hop is that it doesn’t need to involve a lot of equipment – Two turntables and mic and you’re ready to get creative, so the ease of interaction between artists opens the gateway to a whole plethora of collaborations. Occasionally MC’s come together and there’s a real connection between them, and this is how Special School came to be.

To help you understand where these gentlemen are coming from, we should tell you a bit about the members of the crew: First up is Elemental (www.myspace. com/mcelemental), a prolific MC who has worked with countless artists and has been doing live shows for longer than most. Known better to some as Professor Elemental, his alter-ego has made appearances at various burlesque cabaret shows around the country, and you may already be familiar with the YouTube favourite ‘Cup Of Brown Joy’ – If you haven’t seen it yet, type it into YouTube and prepare to be enlightened. In his own words, “I am keen on songs that involve animals, machines or tea.”

Next up is Jon Clark (www.myspace.com/jonsept), Elemental’s partner in crime on the microphone device. Having spent his childhood growing up in the far-flung nether regions of the USA, Brazil and Somerset, England, you will understand that Mr Clark articulates with an accent that is not your average twang! Combined with his dulcet vocal tones and an incredibly inventive mind, the man’s lyrics simply need to be heard to be fully appreciated.

Backing them up on DJ duties is Nick Maxwell (www.myspace.com/nickmaxwell), an accomplished DJ with over 15 years experience behind the turntables. Having cut his teeth as a jungle DJ in the early nineties, Nick Maxwell’s love of hip-hop eventually took over and this has been his primary focus for the last decade or so, and his ‘Adventures In Hip-Hop’ series of mixtapes has won him considerable plaudits over the years

So how did they all come together? Well, Elemental met Nick Maxwell soon after the turn of the century and they instantly struck up a rapport through their love of good hip-hop, and it wasn’t long before they started doing live shows together. They then got together with acclaimed hip-hop producer Tom Caruana (www.myspace. com/tomcaruana), who was already making his mark through his production talents, and together they formed a crew called The Menagerie, which encompassed other accomplished home-grown MC’s such as Dr Syntax, Teej, Longusto and Koaste.

The boys enjoyed a few good years recording and performing as The Menagerie, but after releasing one album (‘Wild Kingdom’ in 2005) the additional members eventually ended up moving in different directions. It was about this time that Elemental and Jon Clark decided to put their burgeoning relationship to good use, and Special School was born.

So what do they do now? Well since 2005, Elemental, Jon Clark and Nick Maxwell have been playing intermittently at various events and basically honing their live performance. Certainly not your average UK hip-hop act, their shows feature tracks on topics such as odd jobs, graveyards, pet hates, and of course tea, and more often than not will include some impressive costume changes and, if you’re lucky, the odd bit of pyromania. Their formula is pretty simple – Straight-up feel-good hip-hop for people who enjoy decent music, and their aim is merely for their audience to come away feeling that they’ve been entertained. Their album is in the process of being recorded and will be dropping at some point in the relatively near future, but in the meantime, look out for one of Special School’s very special live shows.

BRIGHTON & HOVE ALBION the new Community Stadium out of his own pocket and this City has the catchment area needed to build a decent football club.

Russell Slade aloft by crowd

Have faith in Slade!

It’s a well known and undisputable fact that football fans are fickle. This applies to all, from the most fair weather, armchair Premiership fan to the dedicated supporter who follows their team home and away.

The Seagulls have not had the best of starts to the season, with seven defeats in the first fourteen league matches and exits from two cup competitions at the first time of asking. As you may have guessed by now, I’m writing here about Russell Slade, Brighton and Hove Albion Manager. If you’re more interested in Noddy Holder and chums, you’d be better off elsewhere! Many fans are becoming restless with the team once again close to the wrong end of the table and plenty of them are already calling for Slade’s head.

Slade took the helm in March with Albion languishing in a relegation spot. After a shaky start, however, he managed to guide them to safety against all

the odds. Over the summer he completely dismantled the team, releasing over a dozen players and signing a similar number of new faces. We all knew it would take time for the team to gel, but after a one point haul from the first five games, some had already had enough. Football is, after all, a results business but for those of us mad enough to follow the team to such far flung places as Carlisle, the gradual improvement in performances is apparent and the points tally is slowly but surely starting to rise.

Brighton have a tough run of matches to face in November, with Southampton & Norwich away and Leeds & Charlton at home, as well as the first round of the FA Cup. Since the sale of the Goldstone, the Club’s profile has often been low, but the future looks bright.

Though well known amongst fans, a number of my Chelsea and Arsenal “supporting” friends seem oblivious to the changes taking place. Tony Bloom, the Albion’s new chairman, has paid the £90-odd million required for

So back to Slade. Football is clearly a results business and the fans frustrations are quite understandable, but changing managers every six months is not the answer. Russ is the thinking man’s manager; listen to his post match interviews and he doesn’t make excuses, he just makes it clear that the team “have to work harder” until they get it right. I write this despite having just returned home from the Albion’s 2-0 defeat at home to Oldham Athletic; the first time this season the team have been roundly booed off (not by me I hasten to add, I fail to see how this will encourage them to do better). They looked the better team for large tracts of the match, though lacked killer instinct; surely time to give a manager a season to show what he can do as he builds his own team. We won’t get relegated this season, of that I’m convinced, let’s see what the shiny-headed one can do in the long run.

It may have been a slow start to the season but get down to Withdean and get behind Russell and the team. Oh, and don’t judge our performances by what you’ve seen on Match of the Day. We’re not there... yet.

MYBus

Youth Centre on wheels!

As BN1 Magazine is community focussed, we’ve decided to launch a new charity column, focusing on those selfless people around Brighton that give up their time to help others. For our first article, I met up with Gary Rolf, who works for Youth Charity ‘Woodingdean Youth Centre’, to discuss their Mobile Youth Bus project, ‘MYBus’, and discover more about the project.

MYBus is essentially designed to take the much needed services that the Youth Centre provides out to the young people it serves at times and places that suits them, encouraging ownership and control over the services they most need. Thanks to a 3 year grant of £155,000 from the Big Lottery Young People’s Fund 2 and support from PARC (Play Area in Rottingdean Committee) and Brighton & Hove City Council It’s in action 6 days a week. The lottery funding

Park Woodingdean, supporting the Soccerena sessions, a 3 a side football tournament on an all-weather surface.

Tuesday & Wednesday evening – Bexhill Road Park, offering a place for young people in the area to hang out and get involved Thursday – Longhill School Rottingdean - supporting group work and life skills opportunities.

Friday evening - working in partnership with the Crew Club

is providing young people with new opportunities to have meaningful involvement in the development, design and review of services aimed at them and a unique feature of the project is that it is entirely youth led. As an example young people recruited the staff to run the project and helped design elements of the current delivery programme outlined below; Monday evening – Lockwood

to deliver a Mobile Music and Information Project – then onto Saltdean for the late shift 9.30 to 12, offering advice and support to kids in the local area.

Saturday evening -working in partnership with the Crew Club to deliver a Mobile Music and Information Project Busy week!!!

Gary estimates that they have anywhere between 30-60 young people visiting the bus

at any one evening, with many people coming back to see them a couple of times a week.

Obviously this is only possible with the help and support of the MYBus team Youth Workers Emily Packham and Donna Wilson and all the young people involved including Jake Cressey, Luke McNeil, Amy Pullen and Jenna Gray.

One of the major goals of the lottery funding is to advance the young people involved in the local area, to this effect the team have been tasked with discovering 12 “youth champions” who will then lead on some aspects of service delivery.

Overall MYBus aims to ensure there are improved outcomes for young people, more will be involved and as a result organisations will have a better understanding of the needs of young people.

For more information on the MYBus project, please contact Gary Rolf at gary.rolf@yahoo. co.uk, for more information on the Youth Centre, please contact Helen Baxter on 01273 600606.

Arts and Culture

On first entrance, an air of the liminal hangs over "Chameleon", Fabrica's current exhibition. From the darkened vaults of the former church descend portraits of slumbering sitters. They are neither lugubrious nor jocund, not quotidian and certainly not exceptional.

Dead men, it seems, tell no tales, and neither do these blank, fallow faces. On the visitor's approach, the solemn atmosphere is broken, and in an ingenious coalition of science, technology and art, the somnolent figures awake. What follows is an experience that invites us to meditate broadly on the functions of portraiture.

Though consisting of but a few screens, and entirely contained within the one space, here is an exhibition where themes of anthropology, psychology, and

Tina Gonsalves and her team have created a series of videos that respond to their viewers.

Software reads the emotions of the observer and answers in kind. Throughout the day, the moods of the portraits "adapt to the range of visitors' emotional expressions, affecting the tone and emotional ecology of the gallery space." Gonsalves is artist in residence at the Wellcome Department of Neuroimaging London, and in numerous other high profile institutions, who leads a team attempting to push the boundaries of what the artist can achieve. Her accomplishment here is undeniable. We are attuned to faces with an innate and piercing astuteness, and

artificial and emotional intelligence are writ large.

artists have always exploited our compulsion to interpret tiny physical movements as wide ranging and discrete emotional states. The raised eyebrow, the curled lip or the flared nostril; all are giveaways to the mental state beneath. We need only remember the amount of ink spilt over a certain inscrutable smile throughout the years to expose our fallibility in this area: despite our sophistication, our intuition can still fail us.

In a wonderful inversion of the traditional portraiture experience, we are here not to interpret that which we see before us, but to be interpreted by it. Mirrored and exaggerated by our digital audience, we are asked to question what, in our own faces, provokes such reactions. It is a complicated interaction in which we are shown a part of ourselves we may ordinarily overlook; for all the time we invest in our outward appearance, the subtle and unconscious movement of the face is our most powerful tool of communication.

Fascinating stuff.
