HOSTAGE and This Is Music in February

The next Black Tape is Friday 8th February.

Bit of a special Black Tape coming up here, first of all, we’re extremely excited to give you a set from our favourite Edinburgh dj/producer and up and coming purveyor of massive tunes, the amazing Hostage, who’s been gaining some much deserved attention and air play from Radio 1 recently, as well as rustling up some rather large remixes, such as his edit of Cold War Kids’ Hang Me Out To Dry. Check him out at http://www.myspace.com/alanhostage for a selection of tunes and the great monthly mixes that’ll hopefully tide you over until what promises to be a roof-raising set at Henry’s.

We’re also well chuffed to have our esteemed venue-mates the This Is Music DJs, who’s night takes place twice a month on Saturdays at Henry’s and boasts a diverse and stellar lineup of the best bands from around Scotland. Expect the very best eclectic selection of tunes.

And finally, February will see the return of the Black Tape Usherettes! We missed them and we know you did too, so rejoice, as they will now, in their new guise, be once again flouncing around Henry’s providing you, the lovely clubbers, with cakes sweets and many other delights as well as some fine tunes when they take a turn behind the decks. And fear not, Black Tape DJs will be featuring, with the now traditional end of night silliness, as well as more huest DJs for your enjoyment. Be there or be…you get it.

Indie / electro / punk / soul / dance / hip hop / blah blah blah

We are giving half-hour DJ slots to anyone that wants one - providing you can make an impression and make people dance. If YOU want to DJ at Black Tape, please with a sample list of tunes you might play.
