Throwing Snow's range of styles crossing beats, rave and garage will see him showcase a more eclectic edge amongst the proceedings.

Detroit: Jimmy Edgar, Kyle Hall

Notoriously rugged electronic music has emanated from the city of Detroit. Michigan has honed a pioneering hotspot of techno and house legends like Derrick May and Juan Atkins. As a consequence, the younger generation of Detroit have sprouted with this feverish pulse an intrinsic part of their musical backgrounds. Kyle Hall and Jimmy Edgar, natives of Detroit, have come a long way in a short space of time, and are now considered legends amongst the current techno and house enthusiasts of today.

Both Jimmy and Kyle play Hidden for Blink's showcase of Hypercolour's sister label, Glass Table, alongside Catz N Dogz and 2nd Drop Records landmark fifth birthday. Limited £10 tickets available now before they increase to £12.50. More on the door.

RBMA's Best Clubs on the Planet

We are thrilled that Red Bull Music Academy have included Hidden in a list of the planet's best clubs. As one of just 10 UK venues to make the cut, we find ourselves in the weighty company of institutions such as fabric, Sub Club and KOKO. 

Blink launches with Berlin's Fachwerk

Emanating from the beating heart of Berlin's infamous techno scene, Fachwerk Records was founded in 2007 by Mike Dehnert along with childhood friends Roman Lindau and Sascha Rydell. It has since released a steady stream of unyielding productions exploring the raw, dark recesses of dance floor sounds, earning both the label and the artists behind it the respect of serious techno fans the world over.

This year sees their 25th release, simply and efficiently named 'Fachwerk 25', said by Clone Records, responsible for album distribution, to take a step away from Dehnert's usual no-nonsense approach, fusing ambient structures with dirty techno grooves.

In celebration of reaching this worthy bench-mark, Fachwerk have announced a label tour which sees the UK leg land at our very own Hidden on June 15th, making for a worthy launch of Blink, the newest addition to FOUND's forward thinking series.

Mike Dehnert recently put together a mix for Carl Cox's Global Radio which you can listen to here:

Gerd mix gets us in the mood for Clone Records

 
Thanks to TRIX and Streets of Beige we're thrilled to be hosting a Clone Records night next month, but if you're not familiar with their sound it's time to get right up to speed. Clone Records is a Dutch record label and shop established in 1993 specialising in experimental/underground electronic dance music that is home to prominent - often pioneering - names on the scene. Releases from Drexciya, Legowelt, Cosmic Force, Duplex, I-f, Jamal Moss and the mighty Dopplereffekt give you an idea of why we're so excited to be hosting them, and on the night two of Clone Records imprints will be given an arch each.

Representing Royal Oak is Gerd, Genius Of Time and Serge. Rotterdam veteran Gerd will be performing live armed with his blissful and, at times, soulful melodies along with teasing vocals hooks. Swedish duo Genius of Time struck a chord with "Houston We Have A Problem" last year, but have plenty more smooth tunes to loose yourself in while Clone Records owner Serge will take his pick from the best house, techno, disco and electro his label, and others, offer.

Holding up the Basement Series side of the night will be Dexter, Untold and Conforce. Dexter and Untold will veer away from the strict 4/4 beats of Royal Oak, with the former touching on dub rhythms while Untold is known for his bass-heavy sets which can range from house through to dubstep. The 4/4 will certainly be served up by Conforce who can be relied upon for an authentic analogue bliss alongside their digital expertise.

To get you in the mood for the Clone Records night at Hidden, have a listen to Gerd in action at Berlin's notorious Panarama Bar, part of the infamous Berghain, as he lays down some jacking beats:
