Welcome To AZIP & Clockwork Orange & Soul Life 2024

Hello from Amanda

Welcome to mid-October’s instalment of Amanda Zips It Up – at a time when just about everyone is planning Halloween, Xmas (and perhaps NYE) parties. 

And if you are looking for an ‘adult’ Halloween bash to dress up for this month, not only do we feature the top-trending Halloween costumes in this edition, I also have news of some of the biggest parties to attend.

Firstly, Clockwork Orange’s ‘DAY OF THE DEAD’ (daytime event) at Fabric on Saturday 2.11.24

The line-up looks brilliant, including Danny & Andy Clockwork, and starring special guests Fat Tony, Brandon Block, Jumping Jack Frost and Norman Jay MBE, amongst others.

I was chatting to Danny Gould about Clockwork and he mentioned their plans for this NYE too, which lands them on the island of KOH SAMUI with a special guest to be revealed ASAP… if Thailand is your Go-To over the Xmas and NY, then head to www.clockworkorange,com for tickets.

Danny and the team will be back in Ibiza next year from the 16th – 21st July with their usual week of shindigs, as well as celebrating the legendary DJ Pepe’s 50th anniversary on the white isle, with a private party at Es Paradis.

Danny was in his Hunter Wellies at this moment…

So, it’s all about going ‘international’ for the CW boys, after deciding that the UK-based Clockstock Festival had become too much of a risk due to the dire and very unpredictable weather that we have in this country.

And I must also mention my Radio partner CRAIG WILLIAMS’ big NYE party – SOUL LIFE at The Crown in Shirley, 7pm – 1am, featuring DJs Craig Williams, JIGS and Mi-Soul’s own Ronnie Herel. Tickets are selling out fast so jump on the EVENTBRITE website for more details.

Onto this week and I reveal another incredible collaboration at M&S, plus the fashion fundraiser for DJ Ashley Beadle following his recent stroke.
