Bugged Out! mark their landmark 30th anniversary at Drumsheds on 9 November with a headline DJ set from The Chemical Brothers. Over the three rooms they welcome German dons of mutant techno Modeselektor; Dusky - who they worked with on their first three Take a Trip shows. Our man in Paris Busy P has been a friend since 1995 when he managed Daft Punk ands also from across the channel Alan Braxe and DJ Falcon unite for their first UK live show. Simian Mobile Disco are no strangers to Bugged Out - they recorded one of our Suck My Deck compilations - and James Ford and Jas Shaw play together for the first time in a while at the club.
On a techno tip we welcome back Blueprint boss James Ruskin and are thrilled that Slam will be playing live (‘Positive Education’ is permanently in the top 5); from Detroit the mighty Octave One also play live - their ‘Black Water’ is a massive techno anthem. Representing Mancunia (the city where it all started for Bugged Out) we have DJ Paulette, Justin Robertson and our original resident James Holroyd. Hot Chip's Alexis Taylor, DFA records' Perel, rising London talent Tia Cousins and Helena Starr join Eclair Fifi, Jay Carder and London resident Fall Forward to round off this epic bill.
If that isn’t enough there are some big special guests still to be announced!
