Our February session was one of our best yet at The Shacklewell Arms, so for those of you who missed it, and for those of you who want to re-live it here are some excellent shots by Egle Trezzi above, and a recording of Kazabon & Hootie Who’s set below. HDD head honchos and party starters Kazabon & Hootie Who ran through everything from dancehall to soca to afro pop to tropical bass, in true world carnival style.
Remember Hipsters Don’t Dance is the 1st Saturday of every month at The Shacklewell Arms.
As we get ready to celebrate 4 years of Hipsters Don’t Dance this live recording of our set from our September party is sure to get you ready for the celebrations on December 7th. We are really excited about having HDD favourites Poirier and Serocee join us for our birthday bash at The Shacklewell Arms. This recording really reflects the HDD vibe and we can’t wait to celebrate with you all on December 7th. Check out the Facebook Event Page for more info on our party.
At our last HDD party Murlo did a warm up set and ran through a bunch of hip hop, dancehall and RnB. That meant Dj Mustard, Dembow and Mavado classics all in 1 hour! Don’t forget to check out HDD faves Kalado, Tifa and Teeflii in there as well. It’s a great representation of how we get things started at our monthly raves (1st Saturday of the month) at Shacklewell Arms. Next one is November 2nd with an extra special set from Kazabon & Hootie Who.

Two brand spanking new HDD blends from our new Riddim ‘N’ Blues series marrying dancehall and R’n'B. These two blends are over Genie Instrumental which is part of Douster’s Inna Style N Fashion Riddims release available from Mixpak. The original of Genie with vocal from JA artist Kari Jess, has become a staple at our parties but we thought it might be fun to add another track or two on the riddim for riddim juggling. The instrumental’s keys and structure are the perfect match for Total and Toni’s smooth RnB vocals. Stream or download the tracks below.
