posted on May 25th, 2005
Deep house action this *Friday* (27th May) is promised by the rocksteady MWD40 crew at the Nile bar. Free entry, 7pm – 12am – who could resist?!
I’ve just discovered this after wading through the piles of crap left in our comments. Apologies if you had to wade through it too – if you ever meet a spammer, poke him in the eye for me. I’ve been away for a couple of weeks so haven’t been able to delete stuff till now.

babble and SaS all night house action
posted on February 19th, 2005
Friday 18th March @ Leicester Square babble have recruited the assistance of SaS soundsystem to bring you another night of serious house grooves. The image oven has already booked his flights down from Aberdeen so no excuses from the rest of you babblers! Sorry its been such a wait since the last one, but rest assured this will be a no holds barred large slice of your favourite deep house action. Should be nice and loud too, with extra pa from babble and SaS. With table footie and pool available if you need a break from dancing, how can you resist?
Tunes will be supplied by babble djs mono, debs, damien and rob forreal, plus special guests from SaS and marcus from Mo.Fi. Marcus has been playing in and around Derby in recent years and is now based in Leicester. He has kindly offered to assist the babble crew so expect to see / hear more from him in the future.
A quick note about comments: I’ve had to close comments on older postings because we keep getting rubbish from casinos and viagra merchants spammed there… comments on the most recent post will always remain open so you can continue to rant as much as you like

Birthday Reflective Reverberations
posted on December 6th, 2004
Wow…. what a great night! Fantastic to see so many familiar faces, and to share the night with so many friends. Great atmosphere and great music, I hope you’ll agree, if you made it down to our birthday shindig on friday. Apologies to Leicester Square… their smoke machine seems to have got a bit too hot and melted, and we nearly left with half their power leads (thank you cable removal pixies – you were very helpful but perhaps a little over enthusiastic at the end of the night!). If anyone has any pics please send them along to info AT babble.org.uk so we can post them up here. Thanks to the DiY crew for rocking the house with us, especially Simon DK whose deep grooves it was a pleasure to follow on to the decks. Thanks to all who travelled from Northampton, Peterborough, Lincoln (Julie) and Aberdeen (Owen and Phil) and everyone who helped.
We’ll be doing it all again sometime soon, as always watch this space or sign up for the mailing list.

babble / DiY birthday boogiedown
posted on October 14th, 2004
3rd December @ Leicester Square its been a long time coming but finally I can announce that we have sorted out our first date for this party season… and its gonna be a big one! DiY turn 15 this year and the babble upstarts not so far behind at a venerable 11 years old. To celebrate we’re going back to a venue which has good memories for us, Leicester Square (aka “Rack and Roll”). The place has been given a makeover and a mighty new soundsystem. More details to come but stick it in your diary, we want to see all the babble faces there, old and new!
If you can’t wait till then check out MDW40 – this Saturday (16th Oct) at the Attik. These deep house afficionados never fail to please, so get your arse down there for a fat, friendly night out. There’s a writeup on MWD40 over at the bbc from 2003.
By the way, if you’ve been coming to babble for a few years, you may remember this!
