DJ’S SEAN JOHNSTON & NATHAN GREGORY WIKINS

HISTORY CLOCK PRESENTS... TARNISHED THIGHS

The History Clock returns for it's fifth journey with a pair of obscure reanimated relics from Tarnished Thighs. "ButterBall Rock" is a high octane leather bound cock rock disco number, a filthy male vocal and electric guitar led romp. Changing the mood entirely on the flip we have "Golden Spread", a hypnotic 103 BPM electronic/synth groove with all manner of wah wah and fuzz guitar adding colour to its Alfredo era White Isle atmosphere. *Tarnished Thighs is a pseudonym for Phoreski, who has released music previously on Bare Fist, Fat Fuk, Eskimo etc. (watch out for the relaunch of Fat Fuk in the next few months).

E.S.P is proud welcome back one our most regular, favourite and well respected guests Mark Seven.

This party celebrates the launch of Mark’s 'Originals' compilation on Claremont 56 Recordings. Mudd's label is home to some really beautiful music and this CD is no exception - the 'Originals' concept allows un-sung heroes of the dance music underground to compile a track list that reflects their unique taste and original twist on music selection. For anyone who has heard Mark play over the last couple of years many of the tracks will sound familiar as they have rocked more discerning dance floors the world over and will do so again on the night...

DJ and record dealer extraordinaire, Mark currently resides in Stockholm where he runs the legendary Black Lodge parties.
Back in 2007 he treated us to the exceptional, and now very scarce, Divine Edits single on Creative Use: http://www.discogs.com/release/1109179

And while your at it check out his now classic "A Slow Blow" mix here: http://www.dimman.se/

worlds more underground venues including Loop in Tokyo, 39 Hotel in

Hello Disco Citizens

On Saturday 11th October E.S.P. celebrates its first all night party by
welcoming a very special guest - Mark Seven

Of course any disco types will know him best for his now legendary
"Slow Blow" mix and his amazing "Divine Edits" release on Creative Use
last year.

Mark started DJ'ing back in the late 80's as part of the emerging acid
house scene in the UK - based out Windsor way he set up and ran
various nights including Bizarre and hosted such guests as Danny
Rampling during the heady days of Shoom.

Many years later and Mark now resides in Stockholm continuing to run
parties and play guest spots around Europe. He currently co-runs The
Black Lodge - an occasional party that runs in ad-hoc venues round the city.
Alongside these Mark has recently started Revolution!, a monthly party
that has already hosted guests like Sadar Bahar & Maurice Fulton with
more respected names to follow..

In London you would hopefully have heard Mark spin at either Afternoon
Sessions / Voices / Tropical Hotdog / Hot Lunch etc.

The all night license allows us to give Mark the room to really stretch out
and dig deep into his exceptional record collection…

Really looking forward to this and thanks to everyone that made it
down to see Mo Morris from A Mountain of One last month...

PS. it's also Marks birthday that weekend (vodka, lime & soda is his
ruin, so top him up!!!)
