2018 will see a new series of electronic events at Printworks. Issue 003
will be programmed and produced by Broadwick Live, which has had a key role in
the venue since its inception. The sound, light and interior have all been
upgraded for Printworks' next chapter.
Launching Issue 003 and marking the new season in the printing press’ history,
UK curators The Hydra will present the opening party on Saturday 3rd March.
Synonymous with global electronic music, The Hydra will bring Kerri Chandler,
John Talabot, Job Jobse and more to the inaugural event.
Heading up the proceedings is
the one and only Kerri Chandler: New Jersey house music
king, MadTech label boss, virtuoso keys player, and a DJ whose
skill and selections are second to none. Offering a contemporary take on
house and tech is Hivern Discs' John Talabot, who has provided some
of the biggest underground tunes in recent years, both solo and with Axel Boman
as Talaboman.
Key Amsterdam figure and De School resident Job Jobse also
lines-up, as do peerless disco duo Tiger & Woods (Live),
the Running Back pair whose magical melodies leave you in awe. Add in
synth-loving guitar players Red Axes from Israel, with
releases on labels including Dark Entries and Life And Death, and you have a
broad and brilliant selection of DJs covering many different sounds in
style.
The Charge Bay room, meanwhile, sees a very special set from Scandi-disco
king Lindstrøm bringing his live show, set to be a mesmeric
trip to the edge of the cosmos with real musicality and emotive grooves. Fellow
Norwegian scene leader Prins Thomas adds to the line up.
The album specialist is joined by Julio Victoria and Taraval,
who are regulars on Four Tet’s essential Text label.
After being awarded Club Of The Year with DJ Mag and Mixmag, Broadwick Live
plans to build on Printworks' incredible first year with a commitment to
showcasing some of the world's biggest electronic artists and parties, and
enhanced sound and light. By combining forward-thinking music policies with a
brutally modern and unique location, Broadwick Live is on a path to create
the world's most iconic music and arts destination.
Bradley Thompson, MD of
Broadwick Live says: "Since the opening of
Printworks in 2017, Broadwick Live has been passionate about the space and creating
incomparable experiences. We cannot wait to build on last year's foundations
with world class talent and production at the heart of everything we
do."
Printworks will
continue to develop the audio visual experience they have become famous
for, working closely alongside award-winning production company dbnAudile.
Using some of the
newest technology on the market, the previoussoundsystem will be upgraded
and expanded to D&B Audiotechnik J and V series PA with V-SUB and J-INFRA, including
enhanced audio on the balcony level. Lighting in the electronic space has been
redesigned, maintaining the creative freedom that came with Kinesys motors.
Additionally, there has been video panel installation throughout, an improved
selection of LED fixtures and moving lights from Clay Paky, Robe, Martin and
more, and a refreshed set of lasers, newly designed and installed by Dragonfly
Lighting. This development promises to take the already breathtaking visual
experience which Printworks is acclaimed for to its next level.
dbnAudile founders Rob
Ashworth and Rob Leach say: “dbnAudile is excited to further strengthen the creative partnership with
Broadwick Live in its development of this iconic building as a venue, with
industry-leading creative technical delivery, helping to cement Printworks'
reputation as London’s leading creative electronic and live music destination."
The Hydra's early ascent
saw their reputation spread with their ability to locate and transform obscure
settings into fully functioning event spaces, from Catholic churches to
dilapidated warehouses, to a decommissioned WWII Naval Frigate. Each space has
all played a part in The Hydra’s formative years. Their departure from Studio
Spaces marks a bigger-picture approach to curating and producing a series of
the very best of underground music inside the iconic Printworks.
Ajay Jayaram and Dolan Bergin,
founders of The Hydra say: “Having access to Printworks is an absolute privilege and has allowed us to
scale things up in a way that had hitherto rarely been seen for a lot of the
music and artists where our main focus lies. The aim is to continue to evolve
what we are able to do in tandem with developments at the venue itself - the
whole team behind it share our appetite for adventure and that inspires us to
keep pushing and to collectively provide new experiences for all that enter
Printworks."
