DJ Pete b2b Surgeon

...

DJ Pete: It's hard to imagine techno culture without DJ Pete. He started DJing in the late 80s and joined Hard Wax in 1991, making him the longest-serving employee of the legendary Berlin record store. Behind the decks, he earns respect for his individual but refined mixing skills with his encyclopedic knowledge of techno history and an unquenchable thirst for new sounds. His energetic sets also feature elements of pure techno, the hard-wax tradition and powerful house tracks. A typical DJ Pete performance is always a mixture of programming, sequencing, layering and live effects that goes far beyond the pure presentation of tracks.

Surgeon: Over the course of his career, the Birmingham resident has perfected a unique and uncommonly effective production style. His is a tough techno sound with an industrial murk about it but also plenty of funk, swing and a sophisticated sense of dub-space learned in part from his Chain Reaction contemporaries in Berlin. Proving that hard can also be smart, sensuous and danceable, Surgeon is a selector of some skill and one of the most inventive, intuitive DJs out there.

Pinch

Bristol

...

The quest to make, play and release truly original dance music is the driving force in Rob Ellis's life.

The artist known as Pinch is a pioneer of dubstep, the sound that sparked one of the biggest waves of musical creativity ever seen in the UK. Subloaded, which he began in his adopted hometown of Bristol back in 2004, was the first dedicated dubstep and grime night outside of FWD>> in London, and to this day the impact of the party still ripples through Bristol's bass community. His DJ sets and productions take the term "dub techno" not as a concrete blueprint laid down by Basic Channel in the 1990s, but as a creative springboard to explore and combine two of the most versatile music styles ever conceived. The bass and dynamics of dub are interwoven with the tense soundscapes and atmospheres of techno. This is why you might find Pinch scorching the dance floor at a techno club one week, before rolling out a set of the heaviest dub, dubstep and dancehall the next.

Bloomfeld

Berlin

...

Bloomfeld is researching and documenting innovative momentums across all domains of cultural production.
His own music, digital art, and performance aim at expanding the intersection of ethno-futurist braindance and functional/hedonistic club heat.
While allowing for the heads to over-intellectualise, Bloomfeld’s output often exposes what comes out of the speakers as just wiggly air after all. Existence is a cosmic joke.
