At the Royal Festival Hall on Friday 12 February, Red Bull Music Academy is teaming up with Resident Advisor to host a special one-off night celebrating the experimental and improvisational side of electronic music.
Detroit’s Carl Craig and Berlin’s Moritz Von Oswald, each techno pioneers in their own right, should require no introduction. They’ve been friends and co-conspirators for years, and most recently collaborated on the Deutsche Grammophon Re:constructed project. They’ll be joined by everyone’s favourite sample-hungry showmen Matmos, jazzman Bugge Wesseltoft (best known for his work with Laurent Garnier), Innervisions’ Henrik Schwarz and Terre Thaemlitz as DJ Sprinkles. In addition to these names from the premier league of the electronic avant-garde, there’ll be sets from a selection of Academy participants. Unmissable, really.
We’ve got a pair of tickets to give away to one lucky FACT reader. If you’d like to be entered into the draw, just e-mail competitions@vinylfactory.co.uk with your name and some indication of what competition it is that you’re entering. Winners will be notified on or before February 10.
