Description
We're delighted to host a special series of sessions from James Lavelle (@UnkleOfficial) celebrating his iconic 'That's How It Is' night, which is set to reprise at the next We Out Here Festival. We'll allow him to introduce it... "That's How It Is' was the club I started in the early '90s with Gilles Peterson which took place every Monday night at Bar Rumba on London's Shaftesbury Avenue, in the heart of Soho. I was 18 at the time, and together with his long term collaborator Janine Neye, and Swifty on visuals, we launched the night. This is part of a series of mixes I've put together representing the time I played at the club, with this first part representing an extended warm up session, where it allowed me to experiment and develop what later became known as trip-hop."
