SOS Photoshoot for Beige

Showoffs and Showdowns

Status update showoffs. Status upgrade showdowns
The imitation smiles of social climbing whores
With sharp knives and even sharper claws

Dirty money, blood money, no sparing in the change
Dirty dealings, bloody beatings, whatever it takes
Forget watching your back, just look in the shadows in front of your face

Ignored messages, unreturned calls
Plans on hold while the knotted truth unfolds

Flakey heads and fake (un)friends
Backtracking pretenders making amends
Is it so hard to write the truth and hit send
Or did the age of communication end?

SOS - LFW Sat 18 Feb

As London Fashion Week kicks it's high heels into full pace SOS will be gathering all fashion mavericks, unfashionable trendsetters and head-turning traffic stoppers to experience another underworld party where style is definitely not over substance. Dress up, dress down, dress to express, or even undress - it's your call.

Stargazing muses, earth-shaking booties, shoe gazing musos, trans twisted beauties. It’s SOS.

SHOE GAZING MUSOS
SOS always welcomes dance music pioneers pushing the boundaries and this month's guest DJ NEVILLE WATSON is certainly a man who does that with his unique brand of raw, deep and jacking house. He has released on numerous influential labels including Clone, Dissident and Mule. He also records under various pseudonyms, is one half of electronic boogie duo Midnight Steppers, and has a live project with Bulgarian housemeister KiNK. Neville has an extensive history playing in sweaty basements from London to Moscow, and main floors including Twilo, Berghain and Panorama Bar.

Joining him in the main room will be globetrotter ILONA INTERNATIONAL and residents WARBOY and ANDY BLAKE, who has been busy launching his new label In Plain Sight. Look out for the first release due out any day now.

EARTH-SHAKING BOOTIES
Dupés Den, hosted by the hot promoter MARK-ASHLEY DUPÉ, welcomes back the iconically stylish NIYI MAXIMUS CROWN and SOS cutie LAYO onto the decks. As always, this room will be bulging at the seams.

TRANS TWISTED BEAUTIES
SOS may never be the same again as JACQUI POTATO (AKA fashion expert, JULIAN J SMITH) brings her tranny mash-up DJ skills to the silver sequined I Love This Song room with JONATHAN BESTLEY! Expect irreverent pop hits... pure classy/ trashy fun!

STARGAZING MUSES
DOGHOUSE made an impact in the early days of SOS with their lunatic Vogueing and unique flair on the catwalk. This month the backstabbers of couture will be taking to the catwalk to give away a limited number of tote bags full of Doghouse goodies. Check out their prints at www.doghouseprint.com

Heroes Valentines - Sat 11 Feb

 

With Valentine's Day turning all things red during February, love is certainly in the air at Heroes, Egg's monthly club night that combines glamour and quality dance music.
As well as inviting international DJs hailing from two countries renowned for romance, love and untamed passion, Egg is also creating the Valentines Dinner and Dance, a pop-up restaurant for one night only.
The Spanish are infamous for their passion and Oscar Mulero is no exception. His love of music has established him as one of the most relentless techno producers and remixers around today.



Upstairs in the terrace comes Alexander Fog from Italy, the romance capital of the world. With an impressive series of releases and remixes for quality labels, he is rapidly becoming a strong name in tech house music.



Earlier in the evening, the Valentines Dinner and Dance will be the perfect opportunity for people to indulge their partner, Valentines date or special somebody with an unforgettable and romantic three course pop-up experience. This will be the perfect way to start the evening dining in style and then going on to dance late into the night.
