Dr. Lektroluv at Electric City - Dec 9
Thursday December 9th
Dr. Lektroluv [N.E.W.S - Ghent]
thatboytim [Takeover Records - Belfast]
Admission e10 / e8 members
On Thursday the Electric City Theater will witness the first operation by
Dr. Lektroluv on an Irish dancefloor. Armed with a bag full of floor-shaking
electro & italo records, a stetascope and hopefully some foxy nurses, Dr. L
will be sharing his love of music with you. Rapidly becoming one of
electro's busiest call-out DJ's. This much travelled doctor has healed many
dancefloor patients in hospitals and surgeries across Europe such as I Love
Techno, Awakenings, 10 Days Off , Body 2 Body and Electronation. Just a few
weeks ago the good Doctor worked wonders at I Love Techno with a closing set
in the room that included The Prodigy and Miss Kittin.
The masked Doctor was brought to the forefront of the electro world mainly
thanks to releasing some of the most exciting electro mix CD's around
including Lektrokuted, Infekted and the New Prescriptions. These highly
successful mix CD's have seen him fuse together classic tracks from I-F,
Alexander Robotnick and Depeche Mode with modern day electro from Dexter,
Carl Finlow and Adult. Seamlessly mixed and superbly selected these
compilations are essential and supply a highly enjoyable trip down electro
memory lane as well as showcasing the up-to-date hits of today. Digging deep
into electro's diverse past and exploring the music's fragmented underground
roots his compilations not only look to the past but to the present and
future.
This mysterious named Doctor will remain masked throughout his set as he
gives you a taste of his own electro medicine. The good doctor's illuminous
green skin and mad boffin attire means he comes across as a muted,
futuristic version of cult 80's TV star Max Headroom. But don't let that put
you off because behind the mask is one of electro's leading DJ's. So don't
forget to keep your appointment with Dr. Lektroluv on Dec 9 for some dirty,
sleazy electro love.
Support comes in a shape on a welcome return to the Electric City booth from
Belfast electro don, thatboytim. thatboytim's recent 'whateverittakes' EP on
Takeover Records has been rocked by the likes of Radioactive Man, Decal,
Andrew Weatherall and many more heavyweights of the electro world. His
DJ'ing style takes in all corners of Chicago, electro, booty and will be the
perfect bed bath for Dr. Lektroluv.
