Taking place on Friday 11th April 2014, the famous Berlin-based, electronic record label, BPITCH CONTROL, who helped launch the careers of popular electronic artists such as #Modeselektor, #Apparat and #PaulKalkbrenner, will showcase 5 of their most prominent artists. This line-up will also include the label’s founder Ellen Allien, who will be doing a 3-hour DJ set.
Nina Kraviz is currently the name on everyone's lips in the house and techno community. Very rarely does a DJ/Producer shoot to stardom so quickly - and when they do, they seldom have the talent to back it up. Nina is the exception to the rule.
After spending her childhood in the Siberian city of Irkutsk, Nina moved to Moscow and gradually found herself more involved in the local scene. She began producing music in 2008, and before long had her first release 'Voices' on the Underground Quality imprint in 2009. Around the same time, Nina began making a name for herself as a DJ, spinning in Moscow's bars and clubs.
Jazzanova return from their huge show at Koko last year, for a special live performance at the Village Underground on Friday 4th April 2014. This eclectic collective of influential innovators are renowned for blending jazz attitudes with easy listening and dance worthy sounds from all over the globe. Showcasing brand new material featuring Paul Randolph and special guests soon to be announced, this is one rare show.
Although these debates belong to music journalism, but no later than the first EPs from Mount Kimbie, the term post-dubstep made a circuit. With releases on Hotflush Recordings and especially with their second album "Cold Spring Fault Less Youth“, Dominic Maker and Kai Campos belong to the spearhead in bass-driven electronica. What can we say; we’re really looking forward to their debut DJ set in our Pool. Speaking about Hotflush, with two EPs on Scuba’s imprint as well as his Lazor Sword project on Modeselektor’s Monkeytown Records, the Berlin-based Lando expands his niche between heavily muscled house, raw dubstep and glitchy sounds. In addition to the Australian DJ Kate Miller, our fine resident Ewan Pearson will be your host for tonight too. Small entertainment tip: Since 2007, the Briton writes in pleasant personal columns on his webpage about early festival experiences, Donna Summer and much more.
