Politburo HQ and Turnmills are proud to present the first in a series of special parties at the venue entitled Modernism. The night is aptly named too as it will be a celebration of the very best in international electronic dance music.
It’s easy to forget just how much electronic dance culture tore the music scene apart back in the late 80s and things have never been quite the same since. Electronica is now intertwined with every aspect of modern life but it’s on the dancefloor where it’s most at home and where new ideas are hatched and new paths forged. Modernism will reflect that and we have assembled a selection of the finest international practitioners around to provide the perfect soundtrack across four dancefloor spaces.
The techno blueprint may be at the heart of Modernism but this is by no means a night for purists only. Techno in its many shapes and guises has become the leading international language of the dancefloor from the beach festivals of Brazil to the underground sound of Europe’s coolest clubs. Modernism will be drawing on this wealth of music and supplying the sounds in the main room at the launch party will be:-
Stacey Pullen: One of Detroit’s favourite sons and the man behind Blackflag Recordings. Stacey is a rare visitor to the UK but his album ‘Today Is The Tomorrow You Were Promised Yesterday’ remains a seminal moment in techno history. Expect deep Afro-infused and jazz-tinged techno from a true master.
Blake Baxter: an equally influential Detroit figure who cut his teeth in the early days of acid house and now plays all over the world. His production career also boasts releases on labels like Underground Resistance, Tresor, Disko B and more. Blake has his finger on the pulse as strongly as ever and has recently collaborated with Abe Duque and Marc Romboy.
Giles Smith: secretsundaze co-promoter and resident, and an inspirational figure on the UK underground scene, Giles will add a distinctly London flavour to proceedings and give a taste of why the capital is home to one of the most thriving scenes in the world right now.
Moodmusic 10 Years Anniversary Tour featuring Sasse & Dave DK: Your hosts in the second room will be the legendary Berlin imprint who will be coming to London as part of a series of parties celebrating 10 years of the label. Head honcho Sasse AKA Freestyle Man AKA Klas Lindblad will be joined by Dave DK who is shortly to release his debut album and is one of the latest talents to emerge from the Berlin scene.
Gavin Herlihy: Another name to watch from the London scene and attracting much attention already with his debut single 'Machine Ate My Homework' – signed to Moodmusic Records, this became one of the underground anthems of 2006. Gavin has plenty more tricks up his sleeve too and grows in stature as a DJ every time he plays.
Soma Records present Silicone Soul & Repeat Repeat: When it comes to quality electronica Glasgow-based Soma Records are a benchmark for many and will be represented at Modernism in the third room by Silicone Soul who have become one of their most successful artists in recent years. With three albums under their belt already, the duo of Craig Morrison and Graeme Reedie have given the tech house imprint a unique twist. Joining them will be Repeat Repeat playing live on stage and their recently released debut album, ‘Squints’, has received much praise from across the board. These boys are ones to watch.
You may be forgiven for thinking that there’s a city theme developing here represented by Detroit in the main arena, Berlin in the second room, Glasgow in the third space and with London joining the dots. In fact, it’s a happy accident and just the way things worked out, but it adds another angle to Modernism and is further proof of just how widespread and influential electronic dance music has become. It has become a truly modern phenomenon.
Providing support on the night will be several of the best young crews coming up from the London scene to help show what the capital can do. Maximal have made quite a name for themselves in the last few months with several rockin’ parties at The Key featuring music across the spectrum on the cooler side of the tracks. Resident Chris Barratt will be opening the main arena with some deep and melodic minimal grooves, while John Donaghy will be laying down tough and chunky tech house grooves in the third space following Silicone Soul.
Closing that room will be Steve Strawberry with his drivin’ Latin-infused techno that has become the trademark sound of the Titled Disco parties which are fast becoming a crucial night on the London underground techno scene. Getting the party started right will be the Bete Noire residents Greg Matthews and Rich Weller whose recent exploits have included playing at the ISSST NYE secret warehouse party.
Welfare for the Digital, the guys behind the Innuendo parties, are pretty hot too after successful events at Turnmills, the Ministry of Sound and ISSST NYE recently, and they’ll be opening up for Moodmusic in the second room with their deep progressive house vibe. Finally, the Topfloor space upstairs will feature young DJs from Maximal and Bete Noire who’ll be given the chance to cut their teeth on the big stage. Check out EJ Wagna, Tom Star, Stuart Edwards, Matt Thompson, Dead Person, Formless and Little Jo.
Techno, tech house, electro, acid house, minimal… forget the labels and think past present and future electronica. Come down and be inspired – this is Modernism.
