At a loose end in London?

This Saturday sees another Wang party in Hackney, bringing some damn fine electro/techno sounds to your ears in a laid-back environment. Rare survivors of the free-party explosion of the nineties, the Wang crew have been found at a selection of different venues around London, taking pride in finding great locations where people can enjoy themselves without having to deal with moody bouncers, ridiculous bar prices and scarf-wearing scenesters. Their last party had Squarepusher doing a one-off tour through his record collection with a fantastic old-skool acid, hardcore and jungle DJ set. On Saturday (June 3) you can see Bolz Bolz (pictured right rocking a Wang party) doing a DJ set (to complement his stomping live set last time around) as well as a Metroline Records showcase, bringing top-class Italian minimal techno over in the shape of Raw, Phiorio and Andrea Kalenda DJing. Along with the residents Electro Elvis + Lula and George 'Skull' Hull, it should be a cracking party in a former pub in Hackney. With an ever-friendly crowd of regulars, if you fancy some partying without the hassle you'll be hard pushed to find something better than Wang.
