Border Community @ Corsica Studios, London : 6th November 2009:
Border Community will be teaming up with renegade promotion team We Fear Silence to kick off our long-awaited new London residency at Elephant & Castle's homely Corsica Studios on 6th November: we had such a nice time at the Hard Islands launch party back in May that we just had to make it our regular base. As ever, James Holden will of course be at the controls, heading up another bill of the finest danceable electronica that the UK currently has to offer.
With our special guests we are truly spoiling you, with old End partner-in-crime Kieran Hebden (aka Four Tet) working the mainroom as only he knows how, Werk Disc's twinkly-toed electrodelicist Lone hopefully serving up a live set preview of eagerly anticipated new album 'Ecstasy and Friends' in the second room, and brotherly synth-and-drum duo Rocketnumbernine, whose eminently danceable live improvisations as heard on new album You Reflect Me will provide an early doors cosmic-tinged warm-up workout. Community support officers for the evening are drafted in from Norfolk and Wales, with Luke Abbott putting forthcoming Border Community pagan techno anthem 'Whitebox Stereo' through its paces in his hypnotic live set, and Nathan Fake and Wesley Matsell sharing backroom DJ duties, between them attempting to work as much intelligence into their dance music as our crowd's hedonistic demands will permit.
Our advance ticket allocation has now sold out, but there will be more available on the door on the night - do arrive early to make sure you get in! Eager beavers also gain automatic entry to my special Community Cast-Off Tombola, where exhilarating prizes donated by the Border Community and beyond await the luckiest of ticket holders. And with the inimitable An'Unexpectacle and cohorts once again appearing with the wisdom (the more you move, the more you feel it), and Dan Tombs lending us his stylish visual expertise, you can be sure that we have thought of everything!
