After two groundbreaking and enthralling techno parties that took London by storm, it simply had to be done - Closer NYE. Politburo events are proud to announce that we will be taking over a brand new E1 warehouse location in London – just five minutes walk from Aldgate East and Tower Hill tube stations – on New Year’s Eve for one unforgettable night of original techno music across two rooms.

Closer is designed to do exactly what it says on the tin. It’s about techno in its purest, rawest sense – unrestricted, unrestrained – delivered by its finest practitioners up close and personal. Techno in its many shapes and guises has become the leading international language of the dancefloor from beach festivals in Brazil to the underground sound of Europe’s coolest clubs. The scene’s leading DJs are in such demand on the global circuit that we barely get to see them here in the UK and that’s usually confined to the bigger clubs and festivals. All well and good, of course, but there’s nothing quite like dancing to techno when the lights are low, the atmosphere is intense and you can see the whites of the DJs’ eyes!

Closer has already featured some of the biggest names on the scene including Luke Slater, Kevin Saunderson, Ben Sims, Colin Dale and Mark Williams who have joined resident Steve Strawberry and a cast of young talent from the London underground. Closer NYE promises to go one better with the return of Luke Slater and a warm welcome to James Ruskin.




Luke Slater: musical and technological innovator, Fabric regular and man of many guises – Planetary Assault Systems, Clementine, Morganistic and The 7th Plain to name a few. Both as a DJ and a producer, Luke Slater has always been at the forefront of redefining the techno blueprint winning support from across the electronic music spectrum. Recent projects have included a ‘Fabric’ mix CD, the ‘Head Converter’ EP and the Mote-Evolver independent online music distribution portal, while his ‘Fear and Loathing’ mix albums are the stuff of legend. Combine that with a packed DJ and production schedule, and you have a true maverick with 15 years of dancefloor vision behind him.

James Ruskin: another stalwart of the UK scene and one of techno’s finest ambassadors, James Ruskin has been making music since 1997. As well as releases on his own Blueprint and Coda imprints, he is an integral part of the Tresor organisation, both as a producer and as a DJ. The label will be releasing his fourth artist album, ‘The Dash’, at the end of 2007 and he has already played at the club in Berlin since it reopened. James is currently touring Europe in support of the album playing both DJ sets and live PAs, and has further cemented his reputation as one of techno’s most accomplished exponents. For Closer NYE he will be bringing along his full bag of effects for a set comprising upfront material alongside classic tracks reshaped live in the mix.

Steve Strawberry: coming up from the London underground and the man behind the excellent Tilted Disco parties, Steve Strawberry is a man you’ll be hearing a lot more over the coming months because of his incendiary turntable skills. He recently brought the sound of Tilted Disco to the Ministry of Sound in support of their techno night Hi-Tek Soul and has been working in the studio with Colin Dale.




Representing the sound of young London at Closer will be Chris Rayner from Inhale, Jon Holland and Mutant playing back-to-back from Injury Time, Stakker and Lene Andreasen playing back-to-back from System, and Richard Belsom and Dan Van Damn who have both recently released tracks on the Jack Digitals label. Over in the second room, meanwhile, Religion will be your hosts featuring Aleksei, Matt Hardin, Paul Edge and Paul KC. These guys have been involved in some of the best parties around London this year including Party Proactive at Turnmills and have one of the most loyal and up-for-it crowds in town.

Full details of the venue will be released in due course but, rest assured, it’s going to be very special and perfect for the intimate and intense atmosphere of Closer. You can expect the same high standards of sound, lighting and production to be found at all Politburo Events alongside one of the friendliest group of techno aficionados you’ll ever find.

Closer is the techno party London’s faithful has been crying out for – unrestricted, unrestrained and like no other. This is your chance to get Closer with Luke Slater and James Ruskin and see in the New Year with a vengeance – accept no substitute, there is no other!

We can now finally reveal the venue for London’s biggest NYE techno party.....

The party will take place at HALO WAREHOUSE in King’s Cross, an awesome 3-room venue that has previously been used by the likes of Mulletover and DDD and has been graced by techno dons like Meat (Cocoon) and Alex Smoke.

The venue is located underneath Canvas (formerly known as Bagleys), at ground level. The venue has two awesome, spacious rooms, a big covered outdoor smoking area, and a dedicated chill-out area. It also has 3 bars and a big cloakroom. We’ll be kitting out the venue with thumping, crystal-clear soundsystems, and powerful lighting. Halo and the surrounding venues are all being bulldozed after January 1st – making Closer NYE the last party at this wicked venue EVER!

The address of the venue is Goods Yard, Off York Way, London N1 0UZ. It’s 5 minutes walk north of King’s Cross Underground & National Rail station – just turn left out of the station and left again onto York Way, walk up the road and turn left AFTER the BP petrol station (onto Wharf Road), and follow the road down. Once in Goods Yard you will walk past The Cross on your left and the entrance to Halo will be signposted in front of you.

There is no parking at the venue – you are advised to leave your car elsewhere. You can see a map of the area here – it’s after the grey area marked “Depot”, straight ahead.
