Club Tip CMU Approved
Approved: Afro Acid meets The Pioneers Of House at The Coronet
By Paul Vig | Published on Friday 27 July 2012
Chicago house legend and the man credited with creating acid house with his seminal ‘Acid Trax’ anthem, DJ Pierre, makes an exclusive London appearance tomorrow night.
Call him by any of his many monikers – Phuture, Pierre’s Pfantasy Club, Phortune, Phuture Phantasy Club, The Don, Photon Inc, Nat ‘Jammin Jones’, Scratching Pierre, The Creator, or just DJ Pierre – this man is a true legend. Celebrating the growing success of his Afro Acid Records label, DJ Pierre keeps it old school meets nu school, bass-heavy and squelches galore with his definitive take on acid and house music.
He’ll appear on the decks alongside two sterling Chicago house music pioneers, Marshall Jefferson and Steve ‘Silk’ Hurley (now joined by DJ Skip as the SNS Experience). And spread across three rooms of music at The Coronet, the night will also feature sets from Tom Stephan, Bart B More, Aaron Ross and Booker T, with an old school room boasting sets from Chalk E White, Huckle Finn and Mark Rushton.
A nine hour house music marathon session – viva la musica de casa!
Saturday 28 July, The Coronet, New Kent Road, Elephant & Castle, London, SE1, 10pm-7am, £15, info at this Facebook page.
