Twisted Pepper, Dublin Tomorrow 10.30pm 12/10 01-8734800
For one night only it's the German Pepper as Pogo clears the tables and chairs to make room for Pantha Du Prince and Ben Klock. Hendrik Weber (pictured) is Pantha Du Prince, the producer behind such hugely beguiling, bittersweet albums as Diamond Daze, This Blissand current attraction Black Noise. Weber's skill lies in fine-tuning grooves that balance both robust, moody techno yearnings and more cerebral, shoegazey electroacoustic cravings.
Down in the basement, Ben Klock will rock the faithful as he tours to plug the latest Berghain mix-album. Aside from his residency at infamous Berlin techno joint Berghain, Klock has released raw, powerful tracks for such labels as Ostgut Ton, Bpitch Control and his own Klockworks.
In addition to the Germans, your DJs for the evening will include Barry Redsetta, Mike Black, Eoin Callanan and the Discotekken crew. Plus there’s art and AV shenanigans from the Mart team in the Mezz.
