Experiencing Music and Movement  first hand recently , My father was visiting London and going to a reunion – (IG Culture: original bruk lynchpin steps to the fore for the penultimate stint. Classics) – dance night in Shoreditch –  I entered it was like stepping back In time I haven’t experienced breakdancing really in a club apart from that one  top geezer  from back home “up north” who thorws out the worm with his Ket wig following whist trying not to have a drunk fit, here It felt much more underground and organic people were there for one reason to dance and dance fucking well ! with A style of “brokenbeat” and some live Mc I was mesmerised by the and break dancing styles back in the 80’s and 90’s that had been such a vibrant underground culture in the UK ,being in the crowd you really experience the love for dancing and the bond that is built up , people travel from all other the country to strut there stuff at these events and theres a great vibe ,respect and love , It was a pretty crazy experience It felt like travelling back in time seeing my old geeze in his prime , This is his passion and as we see with so many other people music is a real sense of freedom and movement naturally comes along with that people bonding and enjoying the momement together, let loose quiver those thigh and knee bones.
