Hello,
Happy new year to one and all. Big thanks to all of you who made our first Electric Shock in Twisted Pepper a memorable one. It's a great venue over two floors and the sound is rocking. Both Rachmad & Heartthrob reckon it's the best space they've played in Dublin. Next up in our monthly residency is a double-bill of Speedy J and The Mole. Naturally, The Mole will be burrowing away downstairs as Colin La Plante returns after his last appearance for us back in June. The Mole's 'As high as the Sky' long player on Wagon Repair was one of the hottest releases in 2008 and those of you who witnessed him play back in Wax will know that his DJ skills are easily on par with his production ability. Playing before Colin downstairs will be Ben Morgan of Stereotonic fame.
Upstairs, we are handing over control to Mr. Speedy J who will be delivering an epic (for Dublin at least) 4 hour live/DJ hybrid set. We've had Jochem over to play many many times going back to the Halcyon days of the Metropolitan. Some of you may remember when he did a similar set then - starting off spacey and dark before driving it up over the course of an evening. Expect more of the same in the high-roofed, strobe-lit, smoke machine fuelled subterranean environs of the Twisted Pepper. Building up from dark beatless atmospheres to a rumbling thunder by close of shop, this will be an evening to remember with Speedy J. Playing before SJ will be Giles Armstrong, legendary raconteur and Electric Shock DJ to boot.
Advance tickets are on sale now for e15 from tickets.ie and City Discs. On the door on the night, it will be e20 so do try and pick some up before that.
Lucky duckies!
I miss Speedy!
