Hessle Audio feat. Ben UFO - 04 December 2023

Over the past 8 years or so we have had, along with Theo Parrish, the honour of playing the monthly residencies at a small basement club in Shoreditch, London with an impeccable sound system. After 20 years of operation, it was time to move on and close the doors on a place that has a lot to answer for in shaping modern club culture. To say this space along with the owner Ade’s singular vision was fundamental in our personal musical formation would be a complete understatement. 
 
On the day of their closing, manager Charlotte asked us if we’d put the system through its paces for the last time that the club would be open to the public. We set about packing the anthems from our respective residencies and on the night once the people were through the doors played 2 records in turn for the rest of the dance. We included tracks of our own and of friends that were made with that place in mind. Records like Daphni - Ye Ye and Four Tet - Pinnacles were made to first be played at Kieran’s nights there, and the Floating Points - Vacuum EP was born out of the CD-R night at the club, and its launch party was the trigger for Sam’s monthly residency.
 
We set this recording up just before the start of the night and unfortunately it distorts in places, but we make no apology for how joyfully noisy people get! The vibe in the room this night was typical of the club on any given night and we hope this recording captures just a fraction of the spirit of a Plastic People night.
 
A massive thank you from us to everyone that has come down to the nights over the years and supported our music there. We are truly humbled to have shared the music we love with people at this place, and your energy in turn has influenced the way we make music on an unfathomable scale. We also thank the bosses Charlotte Kepel and Ade Fakile for inviting us to the club and having faith in us over  these years! All the best for the future!
 
 
See you in the dance
 
Much Love 
 
Sam &amp; Kieran

Floating Points & Four Tet - Final Plastic People 2 1 2015

Jay Duncan beams in for our next podcast with her 2024 set at The Packet Inn. An Adonis and Dalston Superstore regular, she sashays through 90 minutes of SXC house groovers, pumpers and jackers.

"I had the best time playing in that silly little pub! Unfortunately, I was clashing with my best friend Angel D'lite who was showing Sputnik how it's done, which was heart-breaking to leave!”. Afterwards, however, they discovered both had played Sunscreen’s ‘Perfect Motion’ peak set (albeit different mixes). “I thought that was such a beautiful moment of natural synchronicity, or as she likes to call it 'the mushroom network’.”

“I also closed my set with this crazy track by George Acosta called Might As Well Party (Jungle Mix) that I'd found the previous week. It's this slutty, chuggy, fast house record and it breaks down into some ragga tip and switches tempo and ramps up to full on jungle track and then just casually resumes into a slutty fun house record. I adore it and think it’s just such a laugh!!!"

Launching new label, Pond Water, this month, Jay christens it with her track ‘Horse That Shows’ on the 29th, while she has an EP coming on Trule in the New Year.
