Migz has been DJing since 1984, considered to be a multi-musical spinner, presenting three different radio shows a fortnight, each of different genres, mostly on vinyl.

Thursday 22nd October - New Cask Launch - Red Ale is Back
📍 Orbit Beers Taproom
This Red Ale is a seasonal white label series beer that has a distinctive, unique characteristic from Sorachi Ace, a hop variety developed in Japan in the 1970s. We created it to pair perfectly with Hakata's Autumn/Winter Raman menu. Deep red in colour, this hoppy ale has a malty, caramel base with an abundance of hop character. Sorachi Ace hops provide hints of coconut, lemon, dill, coriander, and a touch of oak, with the Citra hops delivering a hit of grapefruit citrus. It's delicious, seasonal, and pairs perfectly with comfort food.
Hakata will have the Red Ale in bottles throughout the Autumn/Winter, and Orbit Taproom will have a few bottles on sale, with the beer on cask at the taproom on 22nd October.
As it's a LAUNCH, if you’re a Locals Card holder, you can enjoy a free pint of the new Orbit Red Ale on the day. Find out more about the Locals Card.
Join us for a cosy Thursday evening in the taproom with sake pairings, great music, Dragon Flame BBQ, and maybe you'll feel like you're all the way across the world in Hakata for the night instead of in our very own Walworth!
Friday 23rd October - Orbit & Friends DJs
📍 Orbit Beers Taproom
A monthly night hosted by the Orbit team and friends, usually taking place every third Friday of the month. However, this one is a week later!
Expect a selection of our favourite genres, great tunes, and great beers.
Saturday 24th October - Dragon Flame BBQ's 5th Birthday Celebrations & Nuno DJ Set
📍 Orbit Beers Taproom
Then later in the evening, Fielding Street's very own Nuno is here once again to bring us some lovely tunes from the streets of Lisbon/his vast record collection!
Friday 30th October - London Jazz Kitscha DJ Set
📍 Orbit Beers Taproom
London Jazz Kitscha aka Goro plays hard-bop, post-bop jazz with a touch of Latin music.
London Jazz Kitscha is inspired by the Japanese “Jazz Kissa”, an audiophile listening cafe. There used to be many places in Japan where you could listen to music and feel the atmosphere.
Therefore, following its name, he aims to play music that makes the taproom feel comfortable and relaxed. However, this idea should not be described as chill-out music. He believes in the energetic power of jazz music.
Apart from his own event ‘London Jazz Kitscha’, Goro regularly appears as a guest DJ at Jazztrain_shoreditch and Grow Hackney jam sessions.
Saturday 31st October - 80s Halloween Fright Night
📍 Orbit Beers Taproom
