TROUBLE VISION is a new night held at Corsica Studios in Elephant & Castle. The venue, very much corresponds with the type of music that we program. Famed for its underground aesthetic and high quality of production, Corsica Studios has become a haven for the underground music scene and over the past years has hosted countless prestigious artists. From Diplo to Derrick Carter, Bonde Do Role to Squarepusher Corsica Studios has seen it all.

The ethos behind Trouble Vision however is to program established artists such as these next to lesser known, but equally talented musicians, with a view to formulating an underground ‘musical magimix’ which you’ll struggle to match for quality and diversity anywhere. At a time where dance music is evolving by the day, you can expect to hear the unexpected, from dubstep to disco, bassline to b-more and everything in between.

Programmed for the launch party we have over 20 artists performing, with the critically acclaimed Rusko topping the bill alongside Beni G from the Mixologists (under the name Jack Beats,) while in room two, Yoyo founder and general musical maestro Seb Chew will be on the wheels of steel alongside the likes of Skull Juice, Tomb Crew and countless others.

We also plan to develop Trouble Vision as a multi sensory experience. For the opening party we plan to host (to our knowledge) the first in-club silent disco. The larger part of the music community will have danced in the open air on South Bank or stomped in the mud at Glastonbury, with only a set of headphones for stimulation, but to have this silent/personal experience within a club is going to be a new experience for everyone.

The Silent Disco will be held in a third arch connected to Corsica Studios, and will operate on a ‘two channel system.’ Within this third arch there will be 2 sets of turntables transmitting 2 different soundtracks played by 2 different DJs over 2 different frequencies. One will then be able to choose which DJ to listen to by flicking a switch on the headphones, issued on entry to the room.

The responsibility of supplying the music for this feature, we’ve given over to a hand picked selection of young DJs, promoters and producers. Going head to head, we have the critically acclaimed and turntable wizards, The Queens English spinning hip hop, breaks and jungle. They will be up against the ‘zine’ royalty, that is Crystal Vision playing more avant-garde cuts and soul. Then later on in the night, The Wolf Soundsystem will be doing what he does best: lacking coherence and overloaded with quality, his tunes will go head to head with The Boogaloo Crew, who will be giving the room a more urban musical quality.

Away from the music, Trouble Vision will also supply a visual quality to the masses showcasing films, lighting and performances, happening sporadically throughout the venue and the event.
