Over the last few years Horse Meat Disco has been involved with exciting projects such as The NYC Downlow which took The Glastonbury Festival and Lovebox Weekender by storm in 2007/8. The recreation of a bombed out New York street scene with a gay club tucked down one of its alleys filled with trannies, hookers and leather boys coupled with the best music heard and performances by the London's cream of alternative gay performers consolidated HMD's reputation for creating one of the most unique and underground parties around.
Now in it's 5th year, Horse Meat Disco has consolidated its disco credentials by inviting some of the best DJ talent to grace the decks at the club. Past guests have included Dimitri From Paris, Derrick Carter, Daniele Baldelli, James Murphy, Prins Thomas, Todd Terje, Tim Sweeney, Lady Miss Kier, Luke Unabomber, Maurice Fulton, Rub 'n' Tug, Cosmo, Daniel Wang, Gerry Rooney, Andy Butler (Hercules & Love Affair), Honey Dijon, Greg Wilson, DJ Spun, Mungolian Jetset, I-F, Loud-E, Steve Kotey, The Idjut Boys, Permanent Vacation, Victor Rosado, Felix Dickinson, Lowlife and Diesel to name but a few. Thanks to appearances by these guys Horse Meat Disco is firmly on the map and its attendance by DJs and dancers alike has become a badge of honour with which to be worn with pride. Come & find out what all the fuss is about!
