STARRING:

BAD FRACTALS
Shaman gangsters tear out sex drunk gutter fried psych rock in a world gone mad.. You’ll generally find them drinking shots of ayahuasca in psychedelic strip clubs with witches in tracksuits but they’ve decided to get lost in London for a laugh.
"If Metallica covered Spandau Ballet"
"If Mark E Smith gave himself an accidental punk quiff and fell in love with himself in the mirror…"
ETC..

KILLDREN
Infamous 2-bit rave punk twazzocks – terrifying tabloids and Tories alike. Guaranteed to amuse, offend – or both!
“From sweat scraped from Atari Teenage Riot and using Bikini Kill as a surrogate womb before turning the Beast loose at Keith Prodigy's wake, the 2-bit rave-punk duo have birthed a twisted sonic chimera..."

DEADWOOD
Legends of the French festival, circus, and rave scene, they've gained a cult following with there fiery blend of electro garage and industrial blues. Sexy, heavy huge....

BLOODY RACKET
It's drum and bass, synth and guitar. It's noisy and a little bit obnoxious. It's all played live. Its the bloody racket!

THE BUCKET BOYZ
Knee slappin', crazy anarcho blue-trash from the Amsterdam bayou!!!!

PERFORMANCES FROM:
HAWAIIAN MAIDEN

DJs ON THE NIGHT:

UKAEA
A shadowy collective with varying numbers and personnel, the primary objective of which is to imagine, and depict, how remnants of a society might try to recreate and use trance dance and ceremony in a post-apocalyptic scenario. Blown-out electronics mix with found percussion, voice, visual elements, movement and setting, drawing from disparate influences, and attempting to push through time and space towards alien idioms.

BOYCEY
He's in the running, but despite not being the world's tallest DJ – Boycey knows how to bang. So come get banged at!

WORLD'S TALLEST DJ
He DJs. He's tall. Some say he's the tallest!
