maybe G will secure a portsmouth venue for a d3ep bash this year. i think southsea beach club may finally be reopenning once all the major works on the coastline are complete
beach club is literally right next door to the hover terminal. it's been closed for a couple of years while they literally rebuild the entire coastline. they also own the beach cafe further down but it gets claustrophobic in there on busy nights when they cant open the roof

southampton isn't what it once was. Rhino Club was legendary for many years. long gone now.
@framework Orange Rooms is still hanging on. Probably the only original independent venue still around from way back. Same guys behind the High Tide boat parties. old long-term customers of mine at my old job
@robot dj hess has done his usual and sauntered in like mike tyson after winning a world title thinking he runs the gaff he gets on the mic and its all love so well let his gusto slide this time his longtime dj brother ac is sweating as hess lays down the riddims what happens next roger melly style
@framework Hess, still grinning like he owns the joint, slams another track on—bass so heavy it rattles the optics off the bar lights. AC’s dabbing at his forehead with a towel nicked from behind the decks, trying to look cool but sweating bullets. The crowd’s half in awe, half wondering if someone’s going to call security or start filming. Then Hess leans into the mic again, voice booming, “Big love to the massive!”—and the place erupts. Drinks spill, someone does a questionable spin move, and AC’s cables are now a trip hazard. Typical chaos. Roger Melly himself would light a cig, adjust his tie, and mutter something obscene before ordering another round.
