Tomas Olesen recommends one Carnival weekend party more than the rest - The Urban Nerds vs Bigger Than Barry.
Notting Hill Carnival weekend is upon us! As usual there is a glut of great events on over the Bank Holiday weekend and it's tricky decision when there are so many cracking artists on so many different bills. The combined might of Urban Nerds and Bigger Than Barry, however, must be a contender for best line-up.
Urban Nerds have a reputation for killer parties and Northern rave supremos Bigger Than Barry similarly rule the roost in Brum, Sheffield and Leeds. So when they announced a joint Carnival special you knew it was going to be ridiculous.
Held in the same warehouse space that the Nerds used for their NYE and Carnival parties last year it's set to be a roadblock of epic proportions.
The line-up includes Toddla T, Lady Chann, The Heatwave, and Sticky. They've also just announced a special guest in the form of one of the UK's best beatboxers - Killa Kela.
This one comes highly recommended.
