Pulling together line-ups that would smash the arse out of 1000 capacity clubs & sticking it into the super-cosy pocket rocket venue known as The Macbeth has been a hobby of ours over recent months.

Unsurprisingly, each & every Moda London party to date has been full to rafters & dripping with good vibes & amazing music.

So in keeping with our well known tendency of never quite being satisfied, we’ve upped the ante once again – this time inviting out good friends Herve & Sinden to co-host a special Bank Holiday smash-down!

With such a meeting of minds comes a line-up that not only defies logic, but kicks it in the head whilst screaming “sod off logic, nobody likes you!”.

So along with Moda boys Jaymo & Andy George & resident spaceman Tom Staar & label honcho Craig Duranti, we’ve also got Mega Mega Mega frontmen The Count & Sinden, who will be roadtesting some new album tracks in the run up to its release later this year on Domino Records.

They’ll be joined by DnB legend & Crack House connoisseur DJ Zinc, uber-genius Production overlord Paul ‘Phones’ Epworth, & a heap of other surprises too!

This party will be full in minutes – if you’re planning on coming (which lets face it, you bloody well should be) then you NEED to get there early.

Seriously though, how is this even happening??

WOUCH!

A ridiculously good atmosphere, an insanely hype line-up, some serious WTF moments, a lot of dancing, a distinct lack of sleep & ultimately a stinking hangover… That’s what happens!

The concept of taking Jaymo & Andy George’s Moda London recipe, that has caused nothing but roadblocks, & adding The Count (aka Herve) & Sinden’s equally huge Mega Mega Mega sounds positively bonkers – but what the hell, it’s Easter!

With such a powerful alliance comes a predictably monstrous line-up, that simply should never occur in such an intimate venue.  Drum & Bass legend turned Crack House pioneer DJ Zinc joins the production genius behind everyone from Florence & The Machine to Jack Penate – the one & only Paul ‘Phones’ Epworth!

Think of it as the best house party you’ve ever been too – just with some of the UK’s biggest acts controlling the sounds!

The reasons to celebrate span far beyond excessive amounts of chocolate; firstly The Count & Sinden LP is finally finished!  Due out on Domino Records this Summer, the boys will be road-testing exclusive cuts from the album for the very first time!

And secondly, this will also be a farewell party, as Moda waves goodbye to The MacBeth before moving to some rather special new London venues.

So, bring your A-game & get the Berocca on stand-by – this one’s gonna be stupid!

Listen to Jaymo & Andy start the party from 9pm on BBC Radio 1 – then head straight to Shoreditch to hear them & some of the coolest names in the business smash-up what is fast becoming London’s house party of choice!

Heading-up proceedings is one of the UK’s most notourious DJ/producers. It’s not even worth writing about him – as clearly you already know! He’s been tucked away in his studio, writing original music, but he’s taking a night off to get down & dirty with y’all. It can only be FAKE BLOOD!

He’s joined by the one of the leaders in the new skool House sound that is taking everywhere by storm currently. It’s Dead Fish Audio kingpin – Mowgli!

And with a late addition to the line-up, we’re very happy to announce that the Prince of Disco, His Majesty Andre, is flying in from Italy especially for this party!

All this, with Moda’s honcho’s Jaymo & Andy George & Tom Staar means we’re in for another roadblock.

Arrive early or it ain’t happening!

With Moda events taking place all over the world (London, Milan, Barcelona, Ibiza), a thriving record label & Jaymo & Andy’s BBC Radio 1 shows, it’s fair to say the big pink machine is on fire! So it’s only right that the first Moda HQ event of 2010 is nothing short of monumental!

Since their 2008 Moda debut, CROOKERS have gone on to dominate the world. Selling out arenas from Tokyo to Texas, these Italian party starters have become one of the worlds most revered nu-skool acts, working with everyone from 2 Many DJ’s to Miike Snow. Don’t miss one of their only UK sets this Spring!

Did somebody say double-headliner? Yes indeed! Producer of amazing bands, maker of amazing remixes, owner of an amazing label – it’s time to roll out the red carpet for the one & only EROL ALKAN!

All this alongside Scotland’s newest musical hero Grum, future superstars Fenech Soler (live) & of course Moda’s very own Jaymo & Andy George &Tom Staar!

Moda is back in London this December, with yet another logic defying line-up at Hoxton’s pocket sized rave den, The Macbeth. As one of the only parties in London delivering MASSIVE guest DJs in such an intimate venue, this is guaranteed to be yet another roadblock (the last one hit capacity within 2 hours!).

Headlining is one of the UK’s most respected ambassadors of new music, her reputation for obliterating clubs is known globally thanks to her boundary pushing Radio 1 shows & her fierce DJ sets, it can only be Miss Annie Mac!!

Next up is a producer who’s tracks are redefining dancefloor across the world, with a sound that is owned by him & his Italian fam’. His name is on the lips of every credible dance music fan right now, it can only be – RIVA STAAR!

As a special treat we have invited along one of the UK’s coolest new bands Fenech Soler to play live! After releasing their massive single ‘Lies’ on Moda Music, they’re now on the verge of becoming one of the biggest breakthrough acts of 2010!

And of course Moda’s very own Jaymo & Andy George will be starting the party from 9pm on BBC Radio 1, then heading straight to the club in Tom Staar’s space ship to continue the fun until they get thrown out! Get involved with LDN’s freshest House party!
