Sometimes the youth-factor of hip hop, r’n’b, thrash, shoe gaze, indie or house just doesn’t hit the spot, and the predictable atmosphere of well-attended bars, clubs, cinemas, bookshops or boutiques won’t quite cut it. When all out of steam for the regular, may we suggest a good old fashioned dose of church? We discovered the Musik in Kirche listings when looking … more
