Productions by The Black Dog were the catalyst for an entire UK electronica movement in the early 90s. Signed to Warp records, releasing alongside the likes of Aphex Twin, Autechre and LFO, having also remixed and produced tracks for Bjork. Remaining as invigorating as ever, their latest album, 'Radio Scarecrow' (preview track) is beautifully crafted throughout. The Black Dogs signature mosiac perfect detailing, unravels listeners in the warmth and complexities of their sound.

Blurring the lines between techno and electronica, close friend and veteran techno producer James Ruskin has promised a special set to compliment and finish the night. His 2008 album 'The Dash' (preview track) formed "a massive leap that joins the dots between his previous dancefloor savvy material with intricate basslines, beautiful melodies and hypnotic rhythms, 'The Dash' is the mark of an artist in full control of his sound."

Also playing on the night is local techno maestro Fran Hartnett. Often using studio equipment alongside decks, Fran's reputation as a techno heavyweight grows with every set he plays. Deviating from his stronger sound, we have invited him to show a more delicate side to his music. It promises to be something a little different, even for his biggest fans.

Euphiophone is a multi-talented audio and visual producer. Bridging the gap between film scores and electronic music, his evolving melodies and industrial beats will stimulate all listeners.
We are excited to welcome back Prozac, who after a 2 year absence, returns to mix a selection of carefully chosen glitchy electronica tracks.

As always, interesting visuals and quality sound are important factors to our nights. Expect a multiscreen visual display provided by: blindFate & Razz plus a bass heavy (Loudmouth) 10K sound install.
