Ostgut Ton once again join up with Broken And Uneven, as they return to London for the first time since that epic sweaty night in Wapping last August and this time they're bringing 50 Weapons with them. It's a start studded affair wherever you look. The Ostgut Ton room features Marcel Fengler (who was one of the real unsung heros of the last party), Barker & Baumecker (Live), new Ostgut signing Function and special guest, Detroit Techno pioneer, Robert Hood.
The 50 Weapons room makes the whole night a difficult prospect. There's going to be some tough choices to make. Live sets from Shed and Benjamin Damage with be perfectly complimented by a DJ set from Addison Groove. If you've not caught a live set from Shed before, we highly recommend taking time away from the Ostgut room to experience one of our favourite musicians doing his thing.
Tickets are available from Resident Advisor.
On top of this when 6am rolls around and you don't want to go home yet (as is quite often the case) everyone will be upping sticks and relocating to the infamous East German fishing boat, the MS Stubnitz, for the after party. Marcel Fengler will continue where he left off from the previous party as he is joined by Dark Sky and Dolan Bergin.
After party tickets are also available from Resident Advisor
Over the years the August bank holiday has steadily become one of the most eagerly awaiting weekend of the entire year. With the whole of London being taken over by festivals, daytime parties and line ups full with the cream of the worlds best DJ talent, the people travel from far and wide to be part of this summer celebration and with it being the last bank holiday Monday till Christmas, everyone seems to party twice as hard to make the most of the extended break.
The summer is not normally over flowing with quality techno events, but as the word of the underground is spreading, more and more techno parties are popping up on the London calender, and the Bank Holiday weekend has never seen an ensemble of techno talent like is on offer in a few weeks time.
The Friday night sees Broken & Uneven join forces with Ostgut Ton for their second label showcase of 2012. Room 1 is all about Berghain, with residents Marcel Dettmann and Marcel Fengler joined by special guest Surgeon. Room 2 goes to the guys from Panorama Bar in the shape of Prosumer and Nick Höppner.
Look out for some special live art going on during the night too as street artist Pure Evil will be working on a mural during the course of the night.
The venue so far is being kept a closely guarded secret, but knowing Broken & Uneven, we expect to turn out pretty special. Full event info and tickets are available on Resident Advisor.
Saturday we head South of the river to our favourite London Bridge club, Cable, for one of London's very best parties, We Fear Silence pres Blueprint Records. After already featuring some of the worlds best techno artists, including Marcel Dettmann b2b Ben Klock, Sandwell District, Luke Slater, Peter Van Hoesen and DVS1, to name a few. We was left wondering what he could possibly do to top the previous parties and raise the bar even higher.
The answer turned out to be quite a simple one. Jeff Mills. The Detroit Techno pioneer, part of the infamous Underground Resistance collective, owner of Axis Records and self confessed sci-fi fanatic has influenced every techno artist or DJ operating today in someway or another. We expect to leave very inspired.
