Copenhagen

Whenever we do these roundup posts, somewhere along the line there's always a mention for our friends at Culture Box and more often than not there's a party in there which includes Luke Slater, so when the two of them came together for one event, it's was always going to find it's place on the post.

Support comes from local boys and Sonic Groove act, Northern Structures, and Circuit Club's Morten Kamper with Finn Of Tomland in the Cocktail Box. Full event info on Facebook.

VOID pres Ben Klock & Tommy Four Seven @ Cafe 1001 (6th May 12)

It's felt like almost forever since London party throwers, VOID, smashed up Public Life, with a bit of help from Perc and Truss, last September. Come next Sunday though, it will of been well worth the wait.

For the headliners VOID look towards Berlin two bring in two techno heavyweights. One born and bred in the city, the other a relocated London boy coming home for the weekend.

There's not much to say about Ben Klock and Tommy Four Seven that hasn't been said already. Both part of huge techno brands (probably two of the most recognisable to any techno fan) Klock with Ostgut and T47 with CLR. They'll be bringing their world renowned techno sounds to East London, and more importantly to the amazing backroom space at Cafe 1001 for this monster party. To show you just how monster this is, Ben Klock will be performing his longest ever set in the capital to close out the festivities!

The rest of the line up features a plethora of local London talent. Room 1 support comes from Kontrol Room (check out their latest promo video), Jay Clarke and Randolph. Our boss, XI, heads up the front room and will be kicking of proceedings with a very special dub techno set.

Get yourselves over to the Resident Advisor Event Page where you can buy your tickets and check out all the event info, including details of the of the pre party. More info on Void can be found on their Facebook Fan Page. The same applies for Ben Klock and Tommy Four Seven
