It's that time of the month again, where we here at UP TO OUR HIPS team up with the legendary P*A*S*H crew with a little help from ANYTHING GOES to bring you a debaucherous night of mayhem you won't forget (or remember) until this time again next month.

Spectrum will see P*A*S*H indie anthem legends KNIFE and STATIC bringing their flavoursome guitar driven hits while upstairs in 34B GOLDFOOT and BEN LUCID play an eclectic blend of new and old for ANYTHING GOES.

UP TO OUR HIPS DJs will be taking over Q Bar for a night of our trademark blend of punk/party/indie MEGA RAVE in a room we all know has no shortage of pool tables or make-out booths.

From 11:30pm, ten bucks.

sex + glue - friday may 15 - oxford art factory


SEX & GLUE is back with a bang and a bandana on Friday May 15.

With all the birthdays happening this month we decided to hold a little throwback party to celebrate all things 80's, including [mostly] ourselves. Come down for our 80's party rave and pat all the birthday kids on the back. We've all done a wonderful job making it this far, especially with THE MAN always trying to get up in our shit, so we deserve a night of debaucherous excess and disastrous fashion choices.

The drinks are practically 80's prices at $4 beers and $5 spirits and the door charge is cheaper than 80's standard at $10 or $8 on a list. The party is at the very [kind of] 80's OXFORD ART FACTORY and starts at 11.45pm.

hips003 - mark c mixtape - dncflrnthms

a few words from MARK C

Hello friends, a small note about the mp3 file you are about to download:

It was completed to the stage it is now towards the end of 2008 on a computer program.

The main purpose of this MIX was to take a BANGING selection of SONGS that i had been LISTENING TO at the time and put (or mix) them together in an enjoyable and friendly manner that lasted 30 or so minutes.

Upon its (almost) completion it turns out my internet at home was thoroughly incapable up uploading anything close to a file this size so nobody ended up hearing or appraising my mix in the making. Further to that evil conglomerate AXXXXXN figured out that i had ILLEGALLY DOWNLOADED a copy of their software and somehow hacked my shit from inside the extra-net and locked the program to prevent me completing the mix and achieving BLOGHOUSE SUPERSTARDOM (my personal DJ fantasy slash dream since late 2006).

Since then I had pretty much forgotten about it - partly because i didn't really think anybody would want to bother spending 34 minutes and 8 seconds listening to something like that.. THAT IS until Dan B got a hold of it afew weeks ago.

He promptly decided is was acceptable enough to get 'released' by his popular promotions company UP TO OUR HIPS and asked me to create the little macro jpg that you see above and the small portion of text that you are reading now.

Many of the SONGS are quite dated - anywhere from 17 to 300 blog years old, but that is understandable considering its history so please enjoy it for what it is.
