ABOUT BOOTIE LONDON:

Launched in 2003 in San Francisco by DJ duo Adrian & Mysterious D, aka A PLUS D, BOOTIE was the first club night in the United States dedicated solely to the then-burgeoning artform of the bootleg mashup -- and has since become the biggest all-mashup event in the world, with regular parties in 13 cities on four continents, along with various one-off events from Beijing to Brasília.

And at CARGO on FRIDAY 9 APRIL, the party finally comes to London, which is, after all, the spiritual birthplace of the modern mashup movement! Keeping your brain guessing and body dancing with creative song combinations, Bootie celebrates -- and satirizes -- many different forms of music. Mixing and matching every musical genre, era, and style into one big dance party where everyone feels welcome, Bootie provides the soundtrack for the A.D.D. generation -- with free mashup CDs given away like candy.

A PLUS D will be DJing a mashup set that mines the best bastard pop collection on the planet, combined with the experience of spinning all-mashup sets weekly for the past seven years, all over the world ... and then even throws in a live element, as Adrian takes the mic to sing a few mashups in the mix as well.

As the SF Weekly wrote, "Vinyl-only DJs may sniff at this pair's hard drives, but A Plus D certainly know how to rock the party ... committedly unpretentious and ready to rock, they deliver the perfect remedy for the occasionally snooty, often staid dance scene."

THE KLEPTONES are well-known as one of Britain's top mashup production talents. Based in Brighton, they've released six acclaimed full-length mashup albums, including the seminal Queen bootleg album, "A Night At The Hip-Hopera," and their recently-released double-album "Uptime/Downtime," which blew up the blogsphere with rave reviews. They've been a hit on the festival circuit for the past few years, and will be previewing their brand-new audio-visual DJ/VJ set, just in time for the summer fests.

Also on the bill is London's very own DJ PAYROLL, a bootleg scene veteran well-versed in rockin' a dance floor with his unique electro mashups

Direct from Germany, BOOTIE BERLIN – creators of the biggest Bootie party outside of the United States – round out the bill, bringing their Berlin mashup flavor to London.
