I've been a bit out of the loop lately with my intense neuroscience course. I'm not sure but you may be in time to go to the next Spatchcock

put on by some friends of mine. They built up the inside of a warehouse and are putting on a night there every month. The mixture of acts is so refreshing. You never know what you're going to get, and it's all been amazing so far. Plus it's a really cool crowd. It’s new enough that there's none of that typical London conformist cynicism in reaction to someone enjoying themselves or doing something unexpected. The last one was great cause we hardly knew anyone in there but left with lots of new friends and prospects. . . damn, it’s the highlight of the month for me, bound to the library 12 hours a day . .
If you miss it try just asking them what's going on in London. Between them in the warehouse they know of allot of teh good art and music stuff going on where people are generally conducive to one another.
Have a good one!
