VLURE & Frozemode at Colours Hoxton, 5th September 2024
Dork’s latest Home and Away showcase called in at Colours Hoxton last week, London outfit Frozemode bouncing onto the stage to start things off. With a fusion of garage/hip hop and a front row of regulars singing along, they’ve clearly made an impression since their formation a few years ago, ASBO BOYS released a few months back jumping out as the biggest crowd pleaser.
And though they’re from much further afield, you could have been forgiven for thinking it was a homecoming show for VLURE too based on the crowd reaction start to finish, chants of ‘one more song’ lasting way beyond the closing number. For a band yet to release their debut album, they have a treasure trove of songs each with its own intrinsic value, the newer material complementing the old while continually challenging the heights already achieved. Never just a gig, always an experience, VLURE are already leaving an indelible mark on electronic dance music. It’s a constant privilege to see their journey unfold, and that album that’s on the horizon is surely set to propel them further into the hierarchy of all that is exciting about the current UK music scene.
