RAINBOW ARABIA / CATE LE BONTHIS FRONTIER NEEDS HEROES / ZACHARY CALE8pm £7 adv / £MOTD

With a penchant for global pop and psychedelic tribal beats, RAINBOW ARABIA have caught ears across the world. Inspiration for their debut album was found in between future-thinking contemporary club music (techno, hip-hop, dubstep) and the organic globe-trekking dance music of the last century (reggae, ragas, gamelan). Add an aff ection for 80s synth-pop and gothic infl uences like LOVE AND ROCKETS and OMD, and you have an interesting recipe that is utterly unclassifi able as it is repeatedly listenable.

JULIO BASHMORE& SUPPORTS10pm-4am £tbc

JULIO BASHMORE’s interest in electronic music began in earnest after hearing DAFT PUNK’s ‘Da Funk’ – he later experimented with synths and guitars, playing in bands then DJing. He began to gravitate towards the bass-indebted sounds of the DIRTYBIRD label, and spending considerable periods of time sharpening his mixing & production skills, CLAUDE VONSTROKE’s label signed him for an EP. Bounce to the blissed-out garage of ‘Footsteppin’, lose your shit to his MOSCA remix, or turn out the lights for ‘Batak Groove’ and you’ll realise that it’s simply something you feel.
