This April [b]Electric Deluxe Presents[/b] – EDLX’s forward-thinking techno party – toasts four years on the circuit, with a stellar German cast that lands in London at [b]Electric Brixton[/b] on April 28th.

As part of its full-on birthday weekender – which begins in Lausanne with Phil Kieran and Thierry Collado – EDP brings a slice of Berlin and Berghain to London next, courtesy of [b]Marcel Dettmann, Marcel Fengler[/b] and the esteemed [b]Sandwell District live[/b]. As ever, proceedings are hosted by Mr Electric Deluxe himself, [b]Speedy J[/b].

And that’s not all, as Room 2 comes via London house and techno upstarts [b]EarToGround[/b], with Tom Dicicco (Stockholm Ltd), Mr F, Chris Stanford and Dax J, Gareth Wild and Fabio Mann.

Synonymous with the infamous ‘Techno Mecca’, Dettmann and Fengler have been carving individual legacies from the booth of the Berghain club, alongside a burgeoning number of Ostgut Ton records. Last year saw Fengler step up to mix the fifth instalment of the institution’s compilation series, with Dettmann releasing his own comp ‘Conducted’ through Belgium powerhouse Music Man Records.
As for Sandwell, though the label has ceased, the shadowy DJ-production team – consisting of Regis and Function – remains very much alive. Mystique and mythology are the seams running through the pair’s clot of solo and collaborative vocations. Stemming back to the influential ‘Downwards’ days, as Sandwell they have carried on the torch to become the cult and revered underground icons they are today.

After first appearing in 2008, fast-forward to 2012 and the Electric Deluxe brand is firmly established as a bastion for freewheeling and thoroughly modern techno. In that time, the label has become a haven for artists like Terence Fixmer and Brendon Moeller to pursue unchartered projects, as well as a platform for collaboration and innovation, which has been channeled into a Europe-leading events vehicle: Electric Deluxe Presents. And with lineups in the past boasting the likes of Richie Hawtin, Jeff Mills, Matthew Dear and Modeselektor – to name a few – it’s easy to see why.

Electric Deluxe Presents comes to majestic music venue Electric Brixton for the first time this April, bringing with it an all-star lineup of some of Berlin techno’s most dominant – and innovative – forces. [b]Tickets are on sale now, starting at £10 for early advance[/b]. Get them while you can…

Sandwell District Live are coming to London!

Sandwell District is, without doubt, THE underground Techno label of the
moment. With support from all quarters they have not just blurred the
boundaries of techno, but have dissolved them and re-built it in their own
unique image… Function and Regis need little introduction, as stalwarts of
the hugely influential Downwards Label they have been breaking down and
re-arranging the D.N.A of conventional dance music for over a decade.

[b]Marcel Fengler[/b]

Techno according to Marcel Fengler has nothing to do with being a go-getter or having an alternative career, it is way more than means to an end: it is his definitive and concentrated passion. In Marcel Fengler’s world, opposites attract. Ambient and electronica are equal parts in his sets that owe as much to the UK’s progressive school of relentless techno as they do to that special “Berghain sound”.

We are very excited to be welcoming one of the hottest talents in techno to man the controls [b]Marcel Dettmann.[/b]

Techno as Marcel Dettmann defines it, is neither a movement without history nor wistful nostalgia. In the hands of the Berliner, the well-known game of hi-hats, bass lines and kick drums draws its tension and momentum from a historically grown tradition and the conscious decision to break the rules. Reformation and solid construction outplays the use of any gimmicks. Dettmann pours Detroit’s oil into European engines, puts British bass music under the control of Chicago’s very own Jack, cuts classics with abstract nuances and connects yesterday with tomorrow and today. In the unrelenting manner of a great DJ, he generates moods and connections that are age- and classless, but never irrelevant or tasteless. Marcel Dettmann links up the art of improvisation with careful preparation and finally gives techno some of its often painfully missed serious physical constitution back.
