WELL, this is exciting.

We're barely into April and the first Clyde boat party of the spring is upon us.

Despite being a world away from the sun-drenched booze cruises of Croatia and Ibiza, Glasgow's very own floating house-fests make up for it with well, just pure gallus-ness.

There will be many similar parties throughout the season, but this is a fine way to start.

The bill features two up and coming DJs who are - no exaggeration - Glasgow legends in the making. Jasper James is the Sub Club regular who was tipped by Jackmaster as one to watch in 2014, has had support from Skream on Radio 1 and whose gigs just keep getting bigger and better.

Barrientos is Glasgow Underground's Chilean-Scots prodigy: a fiercely intelligent, classically-trained studio genius who also makes some of the most blissful house coming out of Glasgow just now.

Do Anything You Wanna, his Pete Tong-endorsed new work with Illyus, and Los Suenos are the kind of jams that were made to be heard at a Caf Mambo sunset, if not a murky Clyde one.

Back on dry land, the party decants to Hope Street's Make Do.

Boat party attendees get in cheaper to the Glaswegian leg of LA house producer Le Youth's European Tour, which also features Waifs and Strays, The Shimmy and Don't Drop.

l 2014 Opening Boat Party with Jasper James, Saturday, Riverside Museum, 6.30pm-11pm, 18/20

Half Baked

Started in east London back in 2009 by Remi Landaz and Bruno Ciaramicoli (who've now set up Number 90 bar in Hackney Wick), Half Baked basically invented Sunday afternoon partying. Their parties are always held in exclusive venues with an industrial style, which nail that 'not-particularly-legal' vibe and feature graffiti, fashion and photography collaborations, on third Sunday of every month plus bank holiday specials. Catch Bruno Pronsato and Thomas Melchior at a secret location on Sunday April 20.

London's best day parties

Hip hop hero declared Liverpool was my best show so far.

With a set like an underground car park, it was hardly surprising Tinie Tempah soon had the Liverpool audience revved up and on full throttle.

Celebrating the last concert of his UK tour, the hip hop hero declared it was my best show so far.

Of course, the silver-suited dapper rapper would say that.

But he certainly seemed to be enjoying himself.

Promising the audience the best night of their lives, he danced across the age with more energy than your average aerobics instructor and certainly looking more stylish.

He opened with Im a Lover, Not a Fighter, sending fans into a frenzy.

Add to that a declaration that Liverpool was one of his favourite cities in the world and the audience was soon eating out of his hand.

He spread his set across his two albums: going back and forth from the first multi-platinum selling Disc-Overy to his latest - and the tour title - Demonstration.

Good ol' four-on-the-floor house, with a bit of ethereal heft behind it, from this prominent, hunky New York DJ. With the UK's Leon Vynehall, whose glorious "Step or Stone (Breath or Bone)" was one of the best tracks of last year.
