Hustle was born out of a labour of love when Neil Thornton (Lasermagnetic) & Argentinean Disco don Guille Bo decided to throw some proper fun parties with the ethos aimed at the dancefloor rather than the chin stroking brigade.
At their parties previous guest have included The Revenge, Greg Wilson, Pilooksi, Trevor Jackson, Craig Richards, Brennan Green, Stevie Kotey (Chicken Lips), Wild Geese, Bottin, Ray Mang, Richard Sen, Disco Bloodbath, Bad Passion Project, Joe Lye, Nathan Gregory Wilkins, Severino (HMD) and Thomas (Rub n Tug) booking djs who love to entertain the crowd and who get involved too…Their infamous Hustle parties fall on the first Friday of every Month at Shoreditch’s legendary Disco Pub the Horse & Groom.
Neil has been involved in the London disco scene for a long time now with the Lasermagnetic events he ran with Johnny Hiller and regular gigs @ Fabric while Guille has played at some fantastic clubs in South America.
When the boys play together, expect a non stop party of rediscovered unclassics alongside more modern house and electronic delights where the most important aspect is about the making sure that everyone is having the best possible time and having a fiesta as Guille calls it.
Every Sunday night MR Severino & Jim Stanton hold this special night, called Horse meat disco.
For those ones who live far from South London the journey might seem a bit of an adventure across the river, but believe me, once the music gets going everything is perfect and the journey is worthwhile.

Combining their usual psychedelic Jazz-Funk grooves with their fully powered Disco tunes and the friendliness of their Latin Southern Soul, Juan & Jorge and has finally managed to complete this lovely CD which express in a very clear way the philosophy of Los Charly's Orchestra.
The CD contain four new songs plus the stuff from the previous releases all mastered through analogue gear for a deeper sound.
Check out for "The Funk Inspector" in between the new tunes, as well as "Disco Gamma" and "Funk Flow" all of then serious killers in their own way!
"I didn't know what to expect with the Los Charly's tracks, but am genuinely surprised at how good they are - very jazz-funk and not painfully cliched". Sean P
