Trivia Crack – Not a Trend But So Much Fun
Trivia Crack is the most successful Trivia App of all times. This is by no means a trend and is going on for a while already but TrendEngel realizes that a lot of people haven’t heard of Trivia Crack before. It’s about time to challenge your friends and the world. Go for it.
Clove Club – British at its Best
It can sometimes be hard to know if a restaurant is trying to make food that you will savour and enjoy, or is simply creating dishes to feed the Instagram craze. Taking no chances, Shoreditch’s Clove Club is doing both.
The Clove Club’s menu is a masterpiece of contemporary aspirations. With a no-choice list of nine courses, there’s no possibility of a fashion faux pas when ordering. This daily-changing menu is economically worded. It describes a succession of small plates: dishes which are seasonal, that champion British produce, yet are oddly esoteric. It is both accessible and obscurantist.
Everything comes together in the amazing building of Shoreditch town hall. Food to dream about long after you left – especially the heavenly buttermilk chicken and pine salt.
The Districts – Real Rock’nRoll
The Districts are a great Rock Band. They are fun, can play, have perfect timing, are tight, write stunning songs and perform in an authentic way. This is what they say about them self: We’re from a little town called Lititz, Pa. We write honest music and are passionate about doing so. Their album A Flourish and a Spoil is out now, was record of the month for Rough Trade and just rocks.

Rival Consoles – Electronica With a Heart
London-based producer Ryan Lee West is notable for making synthesisers sound human and atmospheric. With the release of ‘Odyssey’ and ‘Sonne’ under his Rival Consoles moniker, West has gained a reputation for making thoughtful electronica that spans a wide spectrum of musical ideas. Continuing on from his ‘Odyssey’ EP, ‘Sonne’ is all about atmosphere and space whilst exploring waves of sound and rhythm, and the power of colour. Ryan’s aim was to create music to structure itself around a pulse, rather than the pulse being the defining point.
