LAST Mousetrap R&B Allnighter (32nd Anniversary)
Date: Saturday 10 Feb 2024 /Doors: 10pm
Venue: Orleans, 259 Seven Sisters Road, Finsbury Park, London N4 2DD
Tickets: £10
Join us down Orleans basement for the LAST Mousetrap R&B Allnighter.
I’m really proud of all the wonderful music we shared over three decades and the incredible atmosphere we enjoyed together.
Three of the original resident DJ’s Rob Bailey, Lee Miller & Chris Dale will be joined by scene stalwart Mr Alan Handscombe and cool young gun Charles Whitehouse. We will cover as much of those thirty plus incredible years of Mousetrap music as we can in 8 hours.
My heartfelt thanks to all the regulars who have supported over many years and created so many good times and memories.
(Please note the Freakbeat, Garage & Psych allnighter will continue at the venue 2024)
I’d love to see your faces past and present for one last drink and dance at Orleans, the home of the Mousetrap R&B Allnighter.
Cheers Rob Bailey
To celebrate the occasion a free vinyl 45 featuring two tracks from the clubs stellar playlist including an exclusive remix from DJ Dr Robert is available for the first time, see HERE!

Expect a warm welcome, fantastic music and a great crowd. Huge thanks to the regulars who supported us down the years and will testify that MOUSETRAP generates an atmosphere like no other. For those who have never been here is a little bit about the venue, a basement club with low ceiling, kicking soundsystem, wooden dancefloor with seating booths around the edge, a cloakroom and air conditioning.
The club started life in the basement and then moved onto two floors with the SOUL LOFT and BEAT BASEMENT with a spiral staircase connecting the two floors. The club prospered for over a decade in this format before the ground floor was sold and we returned to the basement only, with alternate dances for the different music styles each month up to the present day.
Over the last twenty five years Mousetrap music has been prolific with an abundance of new scene discoveries filtering up to the weekenders and festivals with global appeal, sometimes filtering into the mainstream media via TV and Radio adverts.
In 1997 the MOUSETRAP label was born with a free 45 for each customer who attended the anniversary. On one side of the disc you will find a song from the ‘R&B dances’ and on the flipside a tune from our ‘Fuzz for Freaks’ playlist including some unreleased gems. Some of these early releases are now commanding big money in their own right.
See below a list of all the MOUSETRAP releases.
I’d like to say a special thanks to the resident DJ’s who helped me shape the MOUSETRAP soundtrack
SPEED, CHRIS DALE, LEE MILLER, GAV EVANS, NICK HUDSON, PID & JACK WHITE
plus the many quality guests from all over Europe who have played a blinder over the last twenty five years.

We are delighted to announce the 31st year of the legendary Dates for 2023 are: 25 Feb (31stAnniversary) & 25 Nov 2023!
