Sound Affects #32: Kate Magic, Dorothy Max Prior, Wildblood & Queenie

About

Sound Affects is a night of talks about music and subcultures, how sound affects us and how music changes the world. Hearing from writers, musicians, artists, superfans, photographers, filmmakers and everyday music lovers, we dive into personal stories, esoteric bands, fan communities, punk, pop, social change and much more. It's organised and hosted by journalist and documentary filmmaker Jak Hutchcraft.

Speakers:
Wildblood & Queenie- Celebrating three decades as a DJ duo, Wildblood and Queenie forever take pleasure in playing the finest disco and disco-infused house grooves on the dancefloors of club nights and on their 1BTN Radio Show (every 2nd & 4th Friday 13:00-16:00 101.4FM DAB+.). They've played Brighton Pride and Love Supreme, as well as their own club nights Shameless Hussies, and Housewife's Choice. Kate works with Queer Heritage South as a lesbian community champion, archiving queer stories from Brighton's past.

Dorothy Max Prior- Writer and artist--London born and bred but currently living in Brighton. As an artist she works in performance, spoken word and sound installation. In her new book,'Sex is No Emergency: Adventures in a Post-Punk Wonderland', Max recalls her days as a ball room dancing tutor in South Kensington, drumming and touring with infamous experimental pansexual psychedelic rock group Psychic TV, exploring London and New York City's queer clubbing undergrounds, the tangled worlds of the UKs indie music scene at the height of its influence, performance art, and parenting.

Kate Magic- DJ and writer. Her new book'88: The Untold Story of a Revolution'reclaims the ecstatic, political, and spiritual roots of the UK rave movement. Kate was there in those early heady days, and subsequently spent a long time asking herself, "What really happened?" This book is her attempt to answer that question, drawing on interviews with nearly 100 people who were there too, in the fields and the basements, hands in the air. Acid house wasnt just a party. It was a revolution.
