Drums of Death
Colin Bailey aka Drums of Death is Scottish by birth but spends most of his time in London, so it was with great excitement that we greeted news of a DJ set at Sub Club at the end of the month (courtesy of How’s Your Party? and i AM). He’s sure to drop in material from the freshly released Red Waves EP; he may also let slip some of the sterling remix work he’s done for the likes of Peaches, Tricky and Franz Ferdinand. Fun fact: you can spot him, in full skull- face make-up, in Jay-Z’s video for ‘On to the Next One’: bit.ly/jayzdod. ■ HYP? x i AM, Sub Club, Glasgow, Tue 31 Jan.
