Bleep Test Summer Fete

Bleep Test Summer Fete

Those Bleep Test types have come over all seasonal and in their rural parish like minds that means only one thing; a summer fete! The date is Saturday 19 July, with 6 great bands, lots of DJs, dancing, a barbeque and cake - all at the Oakford...

6pm - The Good Natured

Arrive on time to see one of the hottest things around the area right now. One girl and an array of electronic bleeps and beats. Good reviews coming in from all over the place - "Dazzlingly original electronics with just a sprinkle of break beat over layered with this deliciously rich pop vocal..."

7pm - Lion Club

Being looked after by the uber cool 1234 Records, the ridiculously young Lion Club have already played on the same lineups as Har Mar Superstar and The Whip. Set to go an awful long way, a cliche it may be - but they are not to be missed.

8pm - Tripwires

Their new single 'Just so you know' is out on the 21 July on Josaka, and if their last release is anything to go by, it will be all over Radio 1 and XFM. Clever, edgy and euphoric. To put it simply, they write great songs.

Pre order 'Just So You Know' on Play.com

9pm - Fox Cubs

Just back from Glastonbury, and their first UK Tour, Fox Cubs are rapidly rising. Steve Lamacq is all over them like a rash, their new single sounds huge. Like Suede, British Sea Power and The Killers all mixed up, but better.

10pm - Elle Milano

One of our favourite bands. Elle Milano are quite frankly, great. If you've not got their debut album 'Acres of Dead Space Cadets' then go and get it now. They are Steve Lamacq's 'Single of the Week', and currently playlisted on XFM. Quirky pop genius.

11pm - The Race

Our headliners first album received rave reviews from everywhere, as well as live sessions on Radio1, XFM and 6Music. They played with the likes of Supergrass and Babyshambles along with slots at the Reading Festival and other festival appearances round Europe. Their new album is recorded, and this is their first live show in Reading for a long time. Expect it to be big.

Before, during, and after all of that there will be DJ sets from The Tufty Club, HotHotBitchesYeah!, The Crippler and The West Reading Galaxy DJs - who have been on lineups along side The Rapture, Bloc Party and Dan Le Sac.
