100% PRIME CLUBBING

If you still haven’t got your mouth round MEAT at East Bloc, then you’re missing one of the hottest parties in Benderland. Every second Saturday of the month, Meat is full-to-bursting with fit boys, hot choons and a no-attitude vibe. Now, the Shoreditch soiree heads to the West End for a scorching Sweatbox special, HOT MEAT.

So we sent Lee Dalloway for a chinwag with head butchers Kris Di Angelis and Tom Stephan.

LEE: How long has Meat been running for now?

TOM: Hot Meat will be our ninth party in nine months. Wow, even we didn’t realise how fast that’s gone by…

So for those gayers who don’t know, can you sum up what happens at your delightful den of iniquity every month at East Bloc?

KRIS: Well Meat is where the music, visuals and boys we know collide together. We both wanted a place where we can play the music we make together, the videos we send to each other and party with the amazing people we know. We’re quite careful about who we invite down, which I think helps create an atmosphere that everyone tends to notice is a bit ‘next level’. I mean, it’s absolutely fucking mental down there, and we tend to stay packed till the end, which is nice.

Yes, we’ve experienced crawling out of there at 6am once or twice… How and why did this special party ‘Hot Meat’ at Sweatbox come about?

KRIS: It was just an idea that sprang into our heads after Summer Rites. We thought the idea was so outrageous that we had to do it just for the drama! We contacted the guys at Sweatbox and they totally get our vibe. For a hot sauna they’re very cool!

What DJs can we look forward to and what will they be spinning?

TOM: We’re keeping it to the both of us. We don’t want to overcomplicate things, and we generally split our sets up between us at Meat so this is our first time to take complete control of what’s playing. We tend to keep the sound somewhere within the term ‘underground house music’. I think for this party we’ll take things extra sexy…

“It will literally be the naughtiest, sluttiest party we’ve done so far”

What should we wear to the party? It can get rather warm in a sauna…

KRIS: Whatever the hell you want. Essentially we’re thinking of it as beach wear, but you can wear more or less!

We assume we’ll be able to drink? 

TOM: Of course! Can you imagine a Meat sauna party sober? I didn’t think so… We’ve got Munroe Bergdorf hosting too!

Can you both tell us your absolute favourite moment from Meat so far?

KRIS: I think that honour has to be handed to our Meat Muse Alex Collins. He turned up wearing a raw steak on his head, and proceeded to spend the whole night freaking people out by chewing on it while posing around the club. One girl pushed in front of him at the bar, so with a well practiced flick of his head, he slapped it in her face and said “Out the way yeah”. We shouldn’t have laughed but we did because it was funny. Even we wouldn’t mess with Alex!

It all sounds ridiculously filthy, can you assure us we won’t get pregnant on the 24th?

KRIS: Listen you bike; you’re probably already pregnant! Frankly we’re both just hoping to get out of there with some dignity still intact.

As if you had any going in 

[kisses teeth]…

KRIS: This will be the sexiest house party we’ve ever been to. It will literally be the naughtiest, sluttiest party we’ve done so far, and we think that’s amaaaaazing.

 

Don’t you dare miss HOT MEAT at Sweatbox (Ramillies House, 1-2 Ramillies St, Soho, W1F 7LN) on Saturday 24th September, 10pm-3am.
