Shogun Audio @ Cable

Now I'm sure if you're reading this blog you'd be aware of the devastating crime that occurred at the beginning of May this year...the closing of Cable nightclub. With it being a strong favourite within the london scene, it was sad to see London Network Rail destroy such an appreciated venue that held a lot of fond memories.  Fortunately my friends and I managed to attend one of the last events that Cable hosted. Loud Noise ran the night with style, inviting DJ's such as Simon Baker, Kry Wolf, Audiojack and Hannah Wants to play. The crowd was ace and the music was on point, not forgetting the raw, industrial feel throughout the club. 

Just before 6am when the night finished, Kai & Marley finished the night with the A Trak remix of 'Head's Will Roll' by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. With the lights turned on and everybody making the most of their final minutes it went offfffff! Here's a cool video put together of the night.

R.I.P Cable London, you are missed
