ONE ()5? E Xiib‘x‘t'fuEAR/ft MISH MASH The Arches, Glasgow, Sat 15 Sep.
Mish Mash built up a devoted following in Glasgow in next to no time, and is fast securing a similarly loyal clientele down in the big smoke with sell-out nights at 93 Feet East. The house-based, percussion-heavy monthly is now set to shift up a gear with a series of parties in roomier venues, kicking off with a spectacular at the Arches this fortnight.
‘The idea is to do something much bigger, with the opportunity to do a bigger production and to get other people involved. It’s on a larger scale and we’re putting on more of a show, but really it’s about keeping it fresh and moving things forward,’ explains DJ and promoter Oscar Fullone.

A mysterious Mish Mash mash—up
The club made its name by exploring the possibilities of adding live percussion and toasting to the standard DJ set-up. Also, as well as roping in Rae & Christian collaborators Chris Crooks and Danny Ward to beef up the rhythm section, the latest Mish Mash strand is set to bring the visual side of nightclubbing to the fore thanks to Fluid 437 and Half Daft. ‘l’m really looking forward to seeing how that side of things turns out,’ says Fullone. 'The Arches really suits it so well too, because it’s such a blank canvas. We’re hoping the visuals will have a really big impact; there’s going to be live video mixing, and there’s these huge fifteen foot helium balloons. To be honest I don’t think I can really do it justice by describing it.’
If all this sounds far from the Mish Mash ethos that charmed the crowds in the first place, Fullone is well aware that pushing the brand to its limits might be a turn-off for the faithful. ‘l’m only planning to do two or three a year,’ he says, ‘so that we don’t overexpose the club. It will provide opportunities for us to bring a fresh edge to the club and to bring guests for one-off events. Doing something on a larger scale allows us to involve other people, and to try a few new things. And we’ll have more room, so I hope that it’ll bring together people who were at Mish Mash
from the start and people who have got into it more recently.’ (Jack Mottram)
