FWD returns to Plastic People
FWD, the club night that launched a thousand dubstep careers, has returned to Plastic People in Shoreditch.
This groundbreaking party, which championed dubstep, grime, funky 'and everything in-between' from their early days, is now a big player in the club circuit, with residencies at Matter and Bloc Weekend.
Plastic People is a funny old venue, but one which I adore. Down a flight of stairs, this tiny 200(ish)-capacity club has skanky toilets, no air conditioning and a booming dancefloor that's utterly pitch black and dripping from the ceilings. But it has a great mix of people, good security, cheap drinks and an awesome lineup of DJs.
I loved heading down there for a Sunday-night FWD rinse-out, but the event tailed off over the Christmas period. It's now back in its original Thursday-night slot, with the first party on 4 March featuring N-Type, Youngsta and Zinc.
The promoters say: 'The change to Thursdays brings back memories of how amazing original FWD Thursdays were, before dubstep and Shoreditch itself had crossed over, as well as a chance to make fresh, new memories.'
