Last year they stormed onto London’s nocturnal scene with one goal in mind: bringing back line-ups that encourage DJs to play phenomenal sets. How? By getting them to bring down enough tunes to keep going for eight hours, non-stop.
An anti-thesis to the current trend in clubland for booking a multitude of names for an hour or so each, A Night With… makes a refreshing change to say the least. In 2010 the likes of Ivan Smagghe, Andrew Weatherall, Michael Mayer, Anja Schneider and Steve Bug were all responsible for the marathon sets, adding further credibility to the cause.
The crew in charge have now announced the next wave of parties, suggesting the events are going from strength to strength. First up in March you can catch boompty boomp king Derrick L. Carter, fresh off the back of his Fabric mix album, with Miss Kittin, Ellen Allien, Radio Slave and Simian Mobile Disco also waiting in the wings for a turn. Tickets are available here, priced between £10 and £15 for each knees up, with full details of dates and record players below. See you down the front.
