Welcome to No Skips. A big one this week. Dan Shake throws his day-to-night at The Cause with Gilles Peterson and a stacked friends lineup, and Printworks 2.0 is getting close. The Radar covers Friday through Sunday: Ben Klock at the Roundhouse, fabric doing what fabric does on Saturday, and a Sunday to sleep through or not. Plus two articles worth reading. Here’s a glimpse of what’s on this week and what’s ahead.
THIS WEEK
Ben Klock presents PHOTON w/ FJAAK, Rødhåd, KiNK vs Kirilik & NEUX
🗓 FRIDAY | 📍The Roundhouse
🎫 Tickets Here
Ben Klock headlines his own PHOTON event at the Roundhouse with FJAAK, Rødhåd, and KiNK on the bill. Klock is one of the clearest arguments for why Berlin techno matters outside of Berlin. His sets have a patience and a weight that most DJs never find. This is proper techno programming in a room that can actually hold it.
Never Sleep x The Cause: Hardcore Continuum vol.2 w/ British Murder Boys, Gabber Eleganza
🗓 FRIDAY | 📍The Cause
🎫 Tickets Here
British Murder Boys is Surgeon and Regis. Two of the UK's most uncompromising producers, back together, playing The Cause. Gabber Eleganza opens. Hardcore Continuum vol.2 is the kind of night that makes you remember why The Cause exists. This one is harder and more unsettling and better for it.
Dan Shake & Friends (Day & Night)
🗓 SATURDAY | 📍The Cause
🎫 Tickets Here
The headline pick of the weekend. Dan Shake brings Gilles Peterson, Cinthie, Amy Os, Mafalda, Luke Alessi, Lulah Francs, and a dozen more across a sixteen-hour day-to-night at The Cause.
Phonox: DVS1 (House Set) & Tama Sumo
🗓 SATURDAY | 📍Phonox
🎫 Tickets Here
DVS1 playing a house set changes the energy entirely. He is known for his heavy techno, but when he leans house it is considered and controlled and worth hearing. A rare Phonox Saturday that earns serious attention.
CAYA: Rave Rabbit x ITW - krif B2B t.na, Jacob Husley, Leith B2B Billa Bazz
🗓 SUNDAY | 📍fabric
🎫 Tickets Here
Rave Rabbit and Into The Woods take over fabric on Sunday with a bill built around emerging talent. krif B2B t.na is the one to watch here- both have been building momentum quietly through London's smaller rooms. The Sunday fabric slot has been one of the more reliably good ones in the calendar recently. Less overwhelming than a Saturday, better lighting, better sound.
