COR Moments – Album Launch Paar-tay!!
September 3rd, 2010
Hello COR Scallies and Disco Bunnies, hope all is peachy with you all.
It been a long time coming, but it’s finally here – We’re launching our very own COR mix Album!
We wanted to put something together between the 7 of us that not only mean something to us but would also help sum up the essence of COR journey thus far. … So, we each picked two of our favourite all time tracks (not an easy job at all I can tell ya!) and handed them to Mr ‘Uncle Welshy’ Windsor to take into the studio to mix up a storm.
After numerous visits studios and one completed album that we decided to bin as it didn’t quite meet our rigorous COR quality control (it was good but not quite good enough!) we finally have a completely polished, COR approved 1hrs 19mins and 48sec disco journey for your personal delectation and delight, straight from the hearts of the COR Family.
This is not your straight forward mix album, oh no. Many hours of production have been lovingly poured into the making of this, including a number edits and reworks to harmoniously pull the wide spanning reach of the tracks in the playlist together. Leon, you’ve done a sterling job sir. We hope you like what you hear.
So, on to the paar-tay.
COR Moments Album Launch
Sept 25th, 8pm – 2am
The Loft +, Albert Road, Southsea.
Tickets : £5, Available from Head Hairdressing, 53 Albert.

We’re keeping this an intimate affair will just 100 tickets available. If you want to get involved please get your ticket as soon as possible, this will sell out and it will sell out quickly.

Where’s the Secret Location??
March 29th, 2010
So, where’s the secret location of the Great Easter Bonnet Boutique with Ibizan ledge DJ Alfredo this Easter Sunday??
You probably guess from the picture, COR are taking over The Kings in Albert Road.
And it’s not just the upstairs club space we have, oh no. We have the whole place, upstairs and down.
We will be turn the whole venue in to a full on underground night club, with decor that pays a chunky nod to 2001 : a space odyssey. You won’t recognise the place.
This will be our very own 2010 : a balearic odyssey!
We will be bringing in our own er-maze-in sound rigs for both upstairs and down, you will not be disappointed with the sound.
We have also hired 2 huge air con machines to draw the hot air out of the upstairs plus two giant fans to keep you all cool.
We are all so very excited about this one here at COR Tower and we are pulling out ALL of the stops to make this our best party yet!
DJ Alfredo, birthday boy Rosko and mixing boy Leon Windsor will be playing upstairs, boss man Percy Fox, disco vet Steve Laming and Mark Persaud will be manning the disco DF downstairs. Plently of hands in the air moments await.
Get to the secret location for 6pm if you wanna get your bonnet in with a chance of winning the 3 nights trip to Ibiza.
Cannot wait for this one, it’s gonna be big. Get involved.
See you on the floor. With your bonnet.
Big Love.
