THIS WEEKEND: Just Jam At The Barbican

Omar Souleyman, D Double E, Mumdance & Novelist and more on Saturday

This Saturday, December 13, sees the Just Jam festival taking place at the Barbican in London. A new wave of artists recently added include D Double E and General Levy featuring Sticky, Hot Chip’s Alexis Taylor and Gang Gang Dance’s Brian Degraw performing a live collaboration, Maboku, Drippin and Uniiqu3 joining Quietus favourite Omar Souleyman, as well as J.M.E & Big Narstie featuring Preditah, Mumdance & Novelist and Traxman & Lite Bulb.

Tim & Barry, the photography duo behind Just Jam, are having another bash at bringing their show to a larger audience, following their original attempt earlier this year getting cancelled in mysterious circumstances, with it later being revealed that the police had raised concerns over "public safety". Nevertheless, the duo, who run Dontwatchthat.tv are going to be recreating their trademark visuals using mobile green screens and roaming cameras, as well as enlisting a host of visual artists, including Aaron Chan, Sabrina Ratté and Natalia Stuyk. Tickets and full details are here, and take a look at the teaser video above.
