Kris says of this enthralling event….

 

WAR…….HOT BOYS DO IT HARD!
The biggest party East Bloc’s ever known is back!!….Our launch saw absolutely every hot boy in town try to get in….So, this time we’re going in even HARDER…. Get hot, get wet, get licked…


This winning team are here to beat the shit out of East Bloc with its combination of the Incredible DJs, in-demand hosts, the hottest crowd & the cheapest drinks, plus crazy antics including “Spin the Bottle” and “Demented Laughing Gas!” 


We’ve taken on our new recruit – Ben Kaye from WE Party to look after the door for those in the know. Plus we have JJ Clark from Room Service looking after only the hottest boys inside, while Alex Collins of Meat fame will be terrorising the dance floor and the unstoppable Alex Palumbo pulling boys left, right and centre into his “Spin The Bottle” booth.


D.J.  wise we have JoshyouAre from Circus dropping the first round of bombs in the “Warzone” room 1, followed by the phenomenal Severino (Horse Meat Disco, Room Service), the final wave of attack provided by me, Kris Di Angelis (Meat, Room Service, Circus). In  the “Battlefield” Room 2, urban white boy Kingsley slams down a jaw dropping motown soul/funk set for those who know, followed by our super-guest Jodie Harsh, firing shots into the crowd from her specially created ‘Retro Rap Bitches’ set. Closing is our own War legend, Munroe Bergdorf, hitting hard with a classic R&B to 90’s dance vibe.

 

If that’s not enough you can take yourself to the Gas Station where Mad Dan is waiting for you with happy balloons…..if you were worried you wouldn’t have a good time….you can relax…2 bucks buys you hit of happy at our party!

 

So if you wanna get in, get on a list with one of the hosts, get there early, or be the hottest soldier in town because when it’s full it’s full and dude, it’s always full.

About discomatt

The History........................................................Created in 2008 after a short period of blogging under his real name, the pseudonym, “Disco Matt”, was born on the back of a reputation for being London’s original party boy having partied and clubbed across the London gay scene since in mid 1990’s.........................................................Through his series of blogs via individual blogging pages which soon morphed into a full blown website (http://discomatt.com), Disco Matt established himself as an independent journalist come columnist who quickly gained a reputation for supporting & promoting one of the world’s most prolific clubbing scenes. He previewed, reviewed & recommended London gay clubs, as well as the diverse gay/metrosexual London club/bar culture, linking to & reviewing the scene top D.J.’s and generally covering the gay scene including international gay events....................................................Regularly reporting on the top events across the scene, Disco Matt’s reviews, over the years, developed a strong following, not just by clubbers, D.J’s, promoters, music producers & scene faces, but people far and wide that were looking for an insight to the incredible scene that was London. He also previewed upcoming events that signalled, either a major change or update of existing clubs, new ventures on the gAylist/metrosexual scene, or where he considered events that deserved more comprehensive coverage to that provided in other posts.............................................However, having pretty much reached the top of his game in his chosen specific field, due to a number of personal predicaments, challenges & changes in his life priorities, Disco Matt parked his writing and operation in February 2014. While the burning desire to continue remained, what this much needed period of inactivity did provide was the time & space to re-think & re-focus his activities on a broader spectrum of media and entertainment............................................................So, following this long two year lay-off, he built up the foundations for this diversification into the areas of film, theatre, radio & television where his reviewing, recommending & reporting was to be replicated & resurrected, also pointing his promotions through more visuals & video's linked to all these areas along with his core activities and passions ................................................................................The Present....................................After another (shorter) period of lay-off from mid 2016, a life changing event reignited his passion and early into 2017, Disco Matt has delivered on his promise for a new, more modern look to his website, shedding the old & tired skin in favour of something far more in keeping with the times and with his blogging roots. And he has waived a fond farewell to his clubbing days, this having also been ditched from his site & activity, rather now just focussing on the genres of film, theatre, radio, television, video and of course, music, in so doing, aiming to broaden his appeal to a much wider audience interested in the latest most cutting edge areas of media & entertainment.............................................................................His aim is to be highly regarded across the industry for his writing in these fields and ultimately become a full time critic in film &/or theatre.
