THE HOUSE OF ST BARNABAS LAUNCH JOHN'S STORY
HELP RAISE £15,000 TO CHANGE THE LIVES OF 25 OF LONDON'S HOMELESS THIS SPRING TEXT ‘JOHN20 £5′ TO 70070 WATCH THE FILM hosb.org.uk On 31 March 2014, Our homies at the House of St Barnabas, a homeless charity and the first not-for-profit private members club, will launch its first ever digital campaign to raise vital funds needed to run their Employment Academy, supporting those who have been affected by homelessness or social exclusion get back into work. It costs the charity £3,000 per participant to attend the Employment Academy, complete its training and mentoring programme. Today, the House of St Barnabas is asking 15,000 people to give just £5, which would enable another 25 people to attend the Academy and help them to transform their lives. In Spring 2013, acclaimed Scottish actor Brian Cox (currently starring in The Weir in London's west end) visited The House of St Barnabas and filmed an interview with one of the charity's success stories, John Smallshaw. John is a former heroin addict who had been homeless on and off for 40 years. The film follows John from Academy graduate to one of the club's employees. The House of St Barnabas operates a unique charitable model, running a not-for-profit private members' club from its Grade I listed home in the centre of Soho. The charity integrates an Employment Academy into the heart of the club, providing work experience and training for those affected by homelessness. The membership is a diverse mix of entrepreneurs, social innovators and creatives. Our goal is to work together to close the gap on social and cultural exclusion. What can you do to support; Twitter: Change a life with @HoStBarnabas by donating £5. Watch John's Journey to find out how & TEXT ‘JOHN20 £5′ to 70070 |

Pre Order:
iTunes Bandcamp Gilles Peterson's Brownswood imprint dips back into the electronic melting pot to compile its fourth "electr*c" compilation in as many years. The fruits of intensive exploration of the cracks and crevices within today's wonderfully fractured bass music movement, Brownswood electr*c 4 features exclusive music from a new crop of up and comers. Some like Frenchman Nikitch and Belgian wunderkind LTGL are fresh out of the blocks, whilst the likes of Deft, Adam Elemental, Glenn Astro, D Tiberio and B Lewis have cultivated relative online infamy in recent times, each carving out their own unique path and singular artistry. As usual we run the full gamut of styles, skipping from searing hypercolour hip-hop/bass hybrids; through ever so slightly wonky deep house; furious footworkin' D&B that recalls vintage Metalheadz cuts circa '96 (but somehow sounds steadfastly futuristic); awesomely drunken R&B; wrecking ball 808-driven bangerz; and introspective emo bumps… It's a cluttered, chaotic, hyperactive kaleidoscopic trip – no doubt – but we wouldn't have it any other way. Founded by Alex "Patchwork" Stevenson (Patchwork Pirates / Earnest Endeavours) in 2010, the aim of this series was very simply to replicate the ethos of Peterson's much loved Brownswood Bubblers series and provide a platform for new, up and coming artists starting to make waves in the worldwide underground. It's an approach that has characterised Gilles's approach to DJing, broadcasting and music from the very beginning of his career and it lies at the very heart of his accidental slogan: "Searching for the perfect beat". The inaugural Brownswood electr*c in June 2010 provided a compelling snapshot of the dance music underground's greyer areas, rounding up then newcomers (now major players) Shlohmo, Rockwell, 16bit, George Fitzgerald, Mosca and Mount Kimbie. Subsequent volumes burrowed deeper into the warren-like electronic landscape uncovering hidden treasures from Ta-ku, Koreless, Synkro & Indigo (these days known as Akkord), Stray (one third of Ivy Lab) and highlighted underground anthems by the likes of Dub Phizix and Krampfhaft, in addition to a whole raft of exceptionally talented newcomers. |
