First up on September 24th is the new collaboration between Brooklyn-based multidisciplinary artist and hip hop raconteur Zebra Katz and Warp signed DJ, artist and producer Leila. The pair recently set the internet alight with their EP, Nu Renegade, a dark and powerful compilation that layers growling rap lyrics over trap and bass inspired electronica.

Joining them will be L-Vis 1990, an artist, who, alongside Night Slugs label mate Bok Bok, has been redefining the UK club sound by creating a singular brand of club music free of rules and genre since 2008. Listen to his new Rinse FM mix here - https://soundcloud.com/rinsefm/nightslugs260715

Also confirmed is Lakker, the Berlin-based slugged out, bass heavy electronic duo. Heavily inspired by the chopped up, processed sounds of the 90s, their humanist slant on electronic music has received support from the likes of Aphex Twin, Laurent Garnier, Lucy, Blawan and Surgeon. Described as creating 'intricate sonic tapestries ranging from haunting Arctic soundscapes to bass driven warehouse weight', their distinctive visual style is reflected in their A/V show, where subtle changes in the music are reflected in the patient and detailed morphing of original self-evolving visual content. This will be the UK debut of their 'Tundra' live A/V show, and their first London show since the drop of the lauded album on RandS in May.

Rounding up the bill is Leila, who will play for a second time under her solo guise. Born in Iran, Leila moved to London following the 1979 Islamic Revolution in Iran. Described as 'the best of what Britain has to offer in the cutting edge of music' by Gilles Peterson, Leila's illustrious career has seen her release on Warp, XL and her own Rephlex label, tour live with Björk and remix the likes of Acacia under her experimental Gramatix alter-ego.
