Halloween Weekend Clubbing Roundup: London, Berlin, Roma, Antwerp, Barcelona, Copenhagen, New York, Taipei & Sydney

It's a big weekend of clubbing as the freaks come out to celebrate halloween in true techno style. So instead of waffling, we'll get straight to the events. There's plenty to get through so we'll keep most of them short and sweet.


London



We begin on Friday night in London as Broken & Uneven's Hydra series continues as they welcome online record store Bleep.com to launch their new project, BLPGRN001, the first in a run of 12"s in collaboration with design collective Give Up Art and photographer Shaun Bloodworth.

Provide the music for the night's festivities will be a star studded line up consisting of Blawan, Lucy, Pangaea, Objekt, Kowton and the first UK live show from, the duo of Analogue Cops and Steffi, Third Side.

The party will be held in Hackney Wick at the Ican Studios and tickets are available from Resident Advisor



Saturday at fabric Room 2 hosts the official launch party of their latest cd, fabric 66 mixed by Ben Klock. The Berghain resident is joined by a couple of names that you'll see in the compilation CDs tracklisting in the shape of Truncate and Wincent Kunth.

You can read all about the CD and order your own copy from the fabric website where you can also purchase your Tickets. As part of the package you can get a discount when you order your CD and ticket together.


Berlin


It's tonight, and already started, but we couldn't do this post without giving it a mention. We're gutted we're not there, but if you're looking for something to do in Berlin tonight, this has to be your only destination.

Tresor, Sonic Groove Records and Fullpanda Records combine in Tresor's Globus room to bring you Timewise. Featuring live sets from Biosphere and Robert Henke and topping it off with an ambient DJ set from Adam X and Dasha Rush.

Once the show has finished the fun's not over, as Adam and Dasha take you down to Tresor's legendary basement for what's bound to be an epic after party. Full event info can be found on the Facebook Event Page


We stay at Tresor from Friday night's shenanigans as Tuna Park puts on an altogether international affair of great interest to us here at SDD. Two SDD Podcasters in Singapore's Xhin and Argentina's Pfirter and past SDD guest, Germany's Milton Bradley.

Full event info on Resident Advisor



We don't need to tell you that quality that can be found at Berghain's in house Saturday event, Klubnacht, so we'll let the line up talk for itself!

Robert Hood, Karenn (Blawan & Pariah), Obtane, Giorgio Gigli, Len Faki, Fiedel and Oliver Deutschmann. If you need more convincing, head over to Resident Advisor to see what's happening in the rest of the club.


Roma


Roma welcomes two of the UKs finest talents as James Ruskin and Shifted join Suprvsion vs Animatek  in taking over the Goa Club for Resistance Is Techno. The Facebook Event Page holds all you need to know

Sydney


For our last destination on our worldwide tour we land down under, in Sydney to be more precise, and after a weekend spent with the wonderful Dutch people, it would be wrong not to give a mention to one of their very best techno exports, Steve Rachmad. Disconnected Audio and Shrug present his show that's inspired by his recent album 'Secret Life Of Machines'.

Tickets available through Resident Advisor

B@TV pres Brendon Moeller & Steve Rachmad (28th Apr 12)


After a couple of weeks off in sunny South Africa, we're back home in London, so we should really do a new blog post. With plenty of stuff coming up we start off again with something a little bit different.


We begin with something a little bit different. Since it's launch a few years back, they have broadcasted live club events over the internet from venues all over the world. On Saturday they move no further than their own office to bring you an excellent techno showcase.


Ahead of their performances in Room 2 at fabric on Saturday night, Brendon Moeller & Steve Rachmad will be spending their Saturday afternoon in Soho at the B@TV offices to play live over the virtual airwaves. Joining them will be UK rising star, Roberto, and London based Resurgence.


The set times for the day is as follows


15:00 - 16:00: Resurgence
16:00 - 17:00: Roberto
17:00 - 18:00: Steve Rachmad
18:00 - 19:00: Brendon Moeller


If you want to be in the studio watching it all unfold, you can send your names to guestlist@be-at.tv. Or  if you can be there in person you can watch from the comfort of your on home by going to their website.


As we said this is the unofficial fabric pre party, but if you want to be in the famous Farringdon basement metropolis for the night you can head over to Resident Advisor for full info and tickets.
