Prepare yourself for an electrobotic bass invasion as the legendary 'Bass Junkie' headlines our next event in February at a new 400 capacity venue.
One of the true leaders of the electro movement, Bass Junkie runs the acclaimed Battle Trax imprint - releasing fast and furious retro-styled miami bass electro. He's recorded two LPs for Ed DMX's Breakin' Records, remixed Radioactive Man and Man Parrish, and collaborated with electro pioneers Dynamix II. His speaker shakin' low frequencies, slammin' 808 beats and futuristic robot sounds have infiltrated labels including Touchin' Bass, Audio Illusion and the awesome Control Tower imprint [run by The Dexorcist and Radioactive Man]. Heavily influenced by the old skool machine funk of Kraftwerk, Juan Atkins and Egyptian Lover - Bass Junkie has pushed his own brand of twisted electro to innocent victims around the world as both a DJ and live act. Be warned, this is serious booty shakin' electro bass that takes no prisoners.
Cut Out gained recognition for his live sets in the late nineties at the infamous Ugly Funk nights where he developed his trademark 'sludge' sound - a combination of distorted hip hop beats and warped electro. He's released EP's on Tobias Schmidt's Nest label, turned out a remix of the C64 classic 'Arkanoid' on Germany's L'Age D'or as well as EP's for Werk in London and net label Basterdized. Cut Out will be stepping up the pace with a hybrid of jackin' electro beats and no holds barred rave madness.
The Hidden Persuader & iNFO_cIFON are two future freedom fighters from Access Tonal Communication's electro division. They've targeted clubs all over the country with the driving force of Electro Bass. Recent live strikes have been heard on Radio 1's Rob Da Bank show and at Machine Records' Terminal parties in Cardiff where they've worked crowds into a frenzy with their raw, unadulterated live sets. Having released several EP's and two albums on their own A.T.C. label, their EP 'Deconstruction Theory' is due for release next month on Machine Records.
DJ support comes from resident deck wizard Mo who'll be chopping up detroit classics from the likes of Drexciya, Dopplereffekt and Ectomorph.
