These guys were ahead of their time, as proprietor Jonny says, "It is strange to see the number of Playlist-type brands appearing across the world right now, so I guess we are onto something." This is essentially live iPod-casting.
We mentioned the very cool "Playlist" iPod club slam in London back in August. The next one is November 27:
- CLUB NAME: Playlist
DATE: Saturday November 27
VENUE: The Progress Bar, 162 Tufnell Park Road, London, N7 0EE
TIME: 8pm-2am
PRICE: Free entry
Brief description:
North London's catching on to the Playlist Club, upstairs at The Progress Bar. (162 Tufnell Park Road, London, N7 0EE ). The last event was the best yet, and the next party takes place on November 27. Playlist is a party with a difference - you are the DJ, judge or dancer. Just bring your favourite 15-minute playlist on an iPod or other digital music player and play your songs, first come, first served. The best DJs win prizes from new sponsors, Everything iPod. If you love music and don't have a music player come along and listen to diverse sounds in a genre-free melting pot of musical desire. Come along and party with the Playlist people. November 27. Free entry.
Description:
Three lucky DJs walked home with brand-new MP3 players after Playlist's last party, others received free subscriptions to Rip and Burn magazine. Why? Because they played tunes that got party-goers and judges moving. How? Playlist is your night. There's no superstar DJ, just music lovers itching to share their style. It's a club where music matters.
We invite music lovers to turn up with their own 15-minute playlists, an iPod or other digital music player, and to sign up to play out; tune in, turn on and drop out those tracks. The best DJs win prizes - or at least endless adulation, the only catch is that volunteer judges decide who the best DJs are, and if you don't cut it - they can hook you off!
