There’s lots and lots of DJs. Proper house music will be pro­vided by Elliot East­wick from out of Paper Record­ings, North­ern and Mod sounds from the excel­lent Move On Up people, and a stra­mash of Lord knows what from leg­endary boot­leg mon­keys the Pop Bastards.

And, this being a fes­ti­val, there’s a ton of local live acts too, like Sepia Tone and Yellow Stripe Nine.

It’s only six quid in, and all the prof­its go to Cancer Research. Tick­ets are avail­able from Tick­etWeb, Jumbo Records and The Faver­sham.

Sounds like a fun way to lose four­teen hours of your Bank Hol­i­day week­end, no?

EmergeD, the art gang behind Rooted, a won­der­ful rolling exhi­bi­tion in a shopfront on Wood­lands Road in Glas­gow, are launch­ing a sim­i­lar exper­i­ment in public art in Leeds:

The art project and exhi­bi­tion, [Shift] will be reclaim­ing space in the shop unit 60-63 that resides in the Mer­rion Super­store, in Leeds’ Mer­rion Centre. Organ­ised by the not-​for-​profit art group ‘EmergeD’ the project aims to ‘look beneath the every­day city’ and focuses par­tic­u­larly on Leeds as site-​specific inspiration.

It’s a game of two halves. First, from the 15th to the 27th of March, in a phase dubbed Process Lab, passers-​by will be able to sneak a peek at the 16 par­tic­i­pat­ing artists in action, then from the 27th to the 3rd of April their work will be on display.

If it’s any­where near the stan­dard of the now defunct Rooted project, Leeds-​based read­ers (hello Kate & James!) should be in for some great stuff to look at.
