Staying at the Roxy in NY (formerly the Tribeca Grand) is akin to being on an elegant cruise in Manhattan. It’s my home away from home in the city. Everything is there: from live jazz in the massive atrium lobby with the glass elevator zipping up and down and the divine food and drinks (I recommend the lobster roll and a mescal cocktail) in recessed leather booths shaped like teacups, to the gorgeous red velvet theater below - which offers the best films on screen in Manhattan - curated by the brilliant Illyse Singer. After attending a killer film and fascinating Q&A, retreat to the Django, the speakeasy next door, which stays open til 4AM and is often where the hottest underground music acts play… What else could you ask for?

Made a WhatsApp group with all my film friends in it and have been using it coordinate going to screenings. It's so much fun! There's loads of little independent screenings happening where I live and some very good independent cinemas, but even if all you have is a TV you should start a film club too. This evening I'm off to an old pub that's been converted into an events space to watch The Garden by Derek Jarman 😎

Though Massive Attack and Portishead often steal the trip-hop limelight (and perhaps rightfully so), Sneaker Pimp's 6 Underground is the real unsung masterpiece of the genre in my opinion. It’s crafty sampling of John Barry’s Goldfinger Bond score, Kelli Ali’s arresting vocal, and Nellee Hooper’s bombastic beat create an effect that I can only describe as novacane. I thank my father for turning me on to trip-hop so early, as it soundtracked much of my youth through middle and high school.

Bed stuy bar which hosts vinyl DJs most nights- pin ball machines are in the back. The worn in wooden benches and drink deals makes it feel homier than a most full blown “club” environments, but the dance floor opens up spontaneously whenever necessary.
