Both Andrew Weatherall and Ivan Smagghe have carved a uniquely cutting edge niche for themselves in leftfield electronica and techno. Always erring on the right side of cool, and never succumbing to the big bucks of big beat production, they are some of the most widely respected electronic artists on the planet. We’re humbled and outrageously excited about their six hour strong back to back set taking place at The Nest this Friday. Having played similar shows across the global spectrum, London rarely has the fortune of housing a night with both of the artists at once. We’re expecting unusual selections as the underground sounds of Britain and France meet paths, forging a journey of musical discovery within our basement brickwork.
We spoke to both artists last month, on the brink of the world ending on 21st May. We asked them to select the top five tracks that they would drop during an “end of the world set”. The results are eerie, sobre and weirdly 80s in part. Check out the tube-tape below for the end result.
Advance tickets are sold out for Ivan Smagghe vs. Andrew Weatherall on Friday 24th June. However, there will be plently of tickets available on the door from 10pm, with free entry between 9pm and 10pm.
