The last Bank Holiday weekend in England means one of two things: you’re celebrating (or commiserating) your GCSE results at Reading Festival, or you’re in West London participating in one of the longest-running street parties in the world – Notting Hill Carnival.
Get ready for the annual Caribbean festival with our playlist, curated by Fred Perry’s resident DJ and Promoter, Gio One Stop.
Whether you’re getting ready to join the parade itself, watch from up high, or dance your way around Ladbroke Grove, our playlist will help get you in the mood for a celebration of Black British culture.
“The smell of jerk, smoke, rum and petrol. When the bass drops so heavily it can shake your soul, and the community is so tight it can squeeze your heart. Get ready for Carnival with some classic sounds.” Gio One Stop
