Thursday July 23rd at T Bar, Aldgate, London
Dub Kult (live), Jon Hopkins (DJ set), Tentonatom, BarryDark and Remote
Visuals: Parallax + Dr Mo 9pm till 3am - Free entry all night long
Audio-visual party poppers, Digital City return to the all new T Bar with our unique brand of swanked-up warehouse revelry. And boy, do we return with a treat.
When a young producer by the name of Jon Hopkins first played for us, he commuted from his mum’s house in the countryside. This time he returns from Sydney where he’s been playing in the Opera House in a one-off band with Brian Eno and Underworld. It was Brian Eno that ‘discovered’ his bold electronic walls of synths, lustrous melodies and amorphous bass rumbles a few years back (no it wasn’t- it was Digital City!). Anyways, since then Mr Eno’s got him producing Coldplay’s last album, collaborating and exchanging remixes with the likes of Herbie Hancock and David Holmes, touring the world and getting invited to all manner of high-brow musical showcases from Sonar to Saddlers Wells to Ether.
Did we say this would be a treat!? Add to this a live set from Dub KULT- the legendary producer of sometimes deep, sometimes hard techno- but always infused with some kind of off-kilter alien funk. Dub KULT doesn't just do looping bangers, and he doesn't get lost in self-indulgence, but he does produce superbly funky, danceable yet lush music that has both attitude and soul. No wonder he gets such props from the likes of Ricardo Villalobos, Andy Weatherall and Sven Vath and now records on influential German labels Traum and Raum...Musik.
