► LOKIBOI (TOP BILLIN/WICKED BASS) http://soundcloud.com/lokiboi
► DOOPLER LIVE! (PIRI PIRI/FULL LIVE SHOW) http://soundcloud.com/doopler
► ASBO (RINSE FM)



PIPE DREAMS; the shards of ideas and ambitions that rarely see the light of day, whether it’s clambering onto a railroad track with a spray can, picking up the camera and documenting your burning passion, to locking down in the studio and creating the hottest sound on road, this is an event that gives due props to those who dared to dream.

For our debut event, we’ve decided to go IN and show you exactly what we do.

Kicking things off at 6pm, we have a painstakingly curated exhibition of the most infamous writers in the Graffiti scene; ZOMBY, TIZER and FAWN. They’ve linked us up with an amazing collection of canvases, some created specifically for this event, with a loose theme around male and female forms.

 

From 8pm-9pm it’s time to dim the lights and reach for the popcorn as we screen the UK PREMIER of Alexander Rosforths groundbreaking Dancehall doc, MAN OOMAN. A no-holds-barred look at daggering and gender relations in Jamaica, this blew our minds and is exclusive to Pipe Dreams.

10pm and its time to get the beats rolling with some of the best in UK House, Bass and Grime; A full live set from local boy DOOPLER, armed with an MPC and some of the sickest beats around, this boy goes hard! Next up is Moscow-born, LDN resident, and XLR8R-tipped LOKIBOI, supplying some of the best house we’ve heard in a long time. Up and coming beatsmiths PIRI PIRI will be mixing up all manner of percussive bass madness, with forthcoming material on Sounds Of Sumo, bookings at Outlook and Boomtown Fair, do not slip on these boys! And if that wasn’t enough, we’ve roped in a SUPER SECRET HEADLINER; Rinse FM regular, Night Slugs capo and one of the best producers in the game, those who know, know.

With the event hosted by Pipe Dreams family and Rinse FM badman ASBO, this is going to be the best vibes you ever spent a fiver on.

Rosy One's - Cause We Got Style "European Hip Hop Posing From 80's and Early 90's" Book Out This Month


Cause We Got Style
"Posing is the art of self-expression. It comprises appearance, fashion, accessories and the art of arranging the body or face in a good pose. Cause We Got Style! is a collection of early European hip hop pose photos. Information about the new American youth culture was still hard to come by, and the youths of Europe had to work out their own ways. Together with graffiti, breakdance, rapping and djing, clothes and attitude were the means of expression. You had to be innovative and use what was available, add details and make your own accessories in orderto stand out and look fresh! Most of the photos in Cause We Got Style! are snapshots taken by kids on their way to a concert, next to a freshly painted graffiti piece, in the street or in the bedroom. The result is as charming as it is revealing. This is a glimpse into a very private photo album, dusted off after years of lying around in the closet. Cause We Got Style! shows photos of unknown teenagers as well as now well-known artists like Goldie, Mode 2, Can 2 and Bando. It contains texts by Akim “Zebster” Walta, D.D.Fresh, Queen Hanifa, Mr Puppet and Dan Tikaret among others. An astonishing document of the early days of European hip hop!"

£10 on the night

Since debuting with ‘Dago Mentality’ and ‘The Sagas of Klashnekoff’ back in 2004 this Hackney born MC has been collecting fans on both the underground Hip-Hop scene and on the mainstream (in the shape of The Arctic Monkeys & Pete Doherty) with style of urban documentary delivered with a unique brand of wit and wordplay that is a devastating as his name would suggest. Classic singles like ‘Murda’ and all three of his full length albums, including 2007’s ‘LionheartL Tussle With The Beast’ and last year’s ‘Back To The Sagas’ have been critically acclaimed and it is obvious why this man is now considered a pioneer paving the way for many Hip-Hop & Grime MCs who have followed.
