  • [LDN] 3rd Sep / The Centrifuge Free Party @ Rhythm Factory with CURSOR MINER, DEBASSER, RIVAL CONSOLES, VAETXH, GARETH CLARKE ++

    Saturday 3rd September @ The Rhythm Factory, Whitechapel Road, London

    10pm – 6am // FREE ENTRY ALL NIGHT

    We return to our spiritual home of East London after myriad excursions around the festivals, warehouses and dancefloors of Europe and North America over the summer.

    To celebrate our homecoming we’ve assembled a bumper lineup to test the outer reaches of the Rhythm Factory’s souped-up soundsystem. With no less than 5 cutting-edge live acts and the Dispatch Agency crew taking over the second room, somehow incredibly we’ve managed to keep it free entry too. All the more reason to come and celebrate!

    More Infos:

    CURSOR MINER is the avant pop anti-hero who continues to confound expectations, sport outlandish costumes and shatter genre preconceptions with his barnstorming live show. His last album on Uncharted Audio was a veritable tour de force straddling the line between perfectly crafted vocal pop and cerebral dancefloor electronics. Having torn the roof down at The Centrifuge’s 3rd Birthday Party in Berlin last year we are delighted to welcome him back for a romp in his home territory.

    Did DEBASSER really start the whole UK bass scene? You better believe it, when his critically-acclaimed release on NovaMute “Fat Girls” came out it caused a ruckus and endless inspirants, imitations and countless sub-genres. Having just released a new single “The Tingler” on his own WIDE Records, this is his first live outing for The Centrifuge and the excitement is already building to hear those basslines on that PA.

    Electro-pop noizenik RIVAL CONSOLES has just released his landmark 2nd album on Erased Tapes Records with an innovative viral campaign seeing each track released separately over a number of weeks. Now the album’s out! Listen, enjoy, then come and rave.

    VAETXH is a fast-rising star of bass and glitch. Having been discovered by The Centrifuge in 2010, his heady mix of laser-precision audio manipulation and body-spasmic bass frequency workouts is winning him fans across the globe. Not least record label bosses, who are queuing up to sign him. Come hear (and feel) what all the fuss is about!

    GARETH CLARKE is a master of melody like no other. Combining compositional virtuosity with dancefloor sensibility it’s no wonder why he is harbouring an impressive and growing legion of admirers comprised of the great and the good of forward-thinking electronic music.

    We were ready to go wild in the countryside with the Overkill stage @ Glade festival.. since it got cancelled we thought there should be an event on that weekend to give us a chance to meet up and go mental…a release of pent up energy if you will.

    Hope you join us!

    The Centrifuge returns to London after a half-year hiatus from club nights, in which time they have taken their quirky brand of challenging yet accessible live electronic music to the global stage. Having upped sticks and moved HQ to Berlin at the start of 2010, the good word has been spreading far and wide. Now they are back in their old stomping ground with nothing less than a stellar lineup to celebrate the climax and finale of WISP’s first European Tour of the new decade.

    And what a decade it is shaping up to be for WISP! Hailing from Niagra Falls in the USA, his profile exploded last year after his first two highly-anticipated albums for Aphex Twin’s Rephlex label emerged, revealing new electro/techno influences to his sound that is tweaked to move feet, tickle minds and break hearts on the dancefloor. 2009 also saw 2 huge UK shows with Aphex Twin and a North American tour with Venetian Snares, both of which are amongst his biggest fans. Come and see what the fuss is about!

    As if that wasn’t enough, we have another FOUR (count ’em!) live acts in support of Wisp. RIVAL CONSOLES makes the first appearance of many under The Centrifuge’s banner, bringing his ultra-catchy synth lines and funked-up drum machine workouts. A true star in the making. MRS JYNX touches down from Manchester with her timeless take on pastoral electronica, retro-electro melody wizard OXYNUCID is exlusively road testing this summer’s festival live set and ROTODRONE plays his first-ever live show, previewing his amazing new album forthcoming on The Centrifuge. missaw provides DJ support for the main attractions.

    In Room 2, the ever-excellent electronic music blog null+void present a lineup bridging the gap between electro, acid, dubstep and drum’n’bass with Militant Science head honcho PAUL BLACKFORD and SCRASE performing live alongside hardware fiend TUDOR ACID and DJs Ursa and Kiersty.

    Room 3 is hosted by Neon Skullz & Pollinate Records…Bad bwoy tribalmashupbashment. Japanese dubtronic genius duo DOKKEBI Q lay down a tasty headline show just before their debut album is released! THIS ROOM IS: global ghetto beats slashed, smashed and slammed against fuck off ragga-tronics and blistering bassline bubblers!

    See you down the front!

  • Goodbye Ginglik, hello Berlin

    Thanks to all that came down on Saturday to the final show of our residency at Ginglik, it was another cracking evening of live electronic music. Photos and audio will be online soon 🙂

    We had 9 great London shows in 6 months there, huge respect to all the musicians, visual artists, graphic designers, photographers, Ginglik staff, Centrifuge crew and not least the music lovers who trekked all the way over to Shepherd’s Bush time and again for the good stuff.

    We’re working on some grand plans for 2010, and will be back in London with some bigger, badder, better, longer, later and louder parties in easier to reach places! In the meantime, we’re moving the label HQ over to Berlin in the next few months. Our first party in the city is on Friday 27th November and there will be plenty more to come.

    Next up…Fri 27/11, Tacheles, Berlin.

    Thanks for the memories…Ginglik, London.
