Alien Disko: VELCRO [Extended Live Set]

Alien Disko returns to The Bongo Club with our first international booking of the fresh club season: acid tekno mastermind VELCRO.

Joining us from France, he'll deliver an extended 90-minute live set, taking us on a psychedelic journey through his own tribal acid creations.

------------------------------------------

Perfectly embodying the groovy spirit of Tribe while breathing an ethereal and other-worldly atmosphere, Velcro’s music stands out as a hybrid sound object whose vibrations overwhelm the whole body. In a world where the different kinds of music are all too often compartmentalised, his universe unfolds with a total freedom of influences.

Between shamanic 303 leads, deep basslines and tribal percussions, Velcro manages to maintain a supremely dynamic yet brilliantly minimalist sound in each of his creations, where acid acts like a narrative thread connecting all pieces of his story. Because this is what his music is all about: a deeply immersive and pulsating story.

------------------------------------------

On support we'll have those most fluent in free party rave sounds — in the main room AD residents Foxtrot, Kaydee and Teknocrat will delve through their catalogues of tekno, acidcore, tribe, and mental.

Upstairs, residents Folie, Idylist and Rodent will be joined by local heavyweights Ma Burd and Pure Chaos to explore the heavier, grittier side of drum & bass. From neurofunk to skullstep, 4x4 to drumfunk, darkstep to old school jump up — we’re ready to get our teeth stuck into the much slept-on sub-genres of DnB that aren't played as much in the club world.
