Expect a tidal wave of briny torrents and a cacophony of boo-hoos at The Bongo Club on the 7th as Headspin residents Allan Dunbar, Steve Austin, Dava and Bongo Dave run through their extensive hip-house and funk catalogue for the last time in the foreseeable future. To mark Headspin’s indefinite hiatus (they’ve not quite done an Optimo) after over 12 years of 4-deck turntablism, percussion clatter from Bongo Dave and head-swelling visuals from Foundlight, Dunbar et al have enlisted arch beat pervert DJ Yoda, who, when not burnishing clubs with indecent assaults of hip-hop, house and Game Boy beats, can be found on the other end of premium rate phonelines whispering lasciviously about bagpipe synths and Biz Markie. Probably. Libelous remarks aside, Headspin promise to “go out with a bang”, and we can’t help but take their word for it. If you need any more convincing, check out the Beastie Boys/Daft Punk mashup on their Myspace. Bliss.
