Time Out: London

“A brand new night that launches tonight with one of our tips for 2010, Hyperdub’s Ikonika, in the top slot tonight with her groovesome and dark dubstep beats. She’s flanked by ‘the UK’s answer to DJ Shadow’, Paul White, and The Village Orchestra, with soulboy electronica and techno, while DJs including Another Amit (Man Make Music) dig through old school jungle to new school funky upstairs.”

Spoonfed

“More good stuff at the Russian. State present hyperdub’s Ikonika headlining. Glitchy dubby hip hopster Paul White and Scottish electronic virtuoso The Village Orchestra provide the support. All are playing proper 2 hour sets”.

We’re hearing big things from all our artists. Ikonika will be showcasing work from her up-coming album to be released on Kode9’s Hyperdub label later this year. Paul White is gonna be taking you on sonic journey only he knows the details of. And The Village Orchestra will be supported by live Jitter visualisations throughout his set. With extended sets from all the above, the main room is without a doubt going to be sick.

We’re also pleased to announce a main room live set from Orlando M. He’ll be bringing his very special sound to STATE which we know you’re gonna love.

Down in the bassment, Man Make Music’s Another Amit and Quincey Real taking you through the night. They’ll be joined by Borland representing the Manchester-connection. And we’ll also be hearing sets from the Bruk family, and the Ruffage crew. Get ready for the party!

We’re gonna be loading showcase mixes up here on the website over the coming week, so keep visiting.

Better bring your spectacles.
