Following nine world tour dates last year and the fastest selling London date in M-nus' history; Richie Hawtin and his M-nus crew storm into o2 Academy Brixton for the very first time on September 26th.

Detroit, Barcelona, Berlin, Amsterdam, Roma, London, Gent, Buenos Aires and Tokyo were all lucky enough to experience the custom made lighting and innovative LED show, which was the toast of clubland last year.

Legendary techno producer and DJ Richie Hawtin continues to showcase new technologies and push the evolution of music-making further into the future. His recording work under the moniker of Plastikman explored the minimal side of techno, inspiring many imitators who still to this day remain in his shadow. Berlin's reputation for being the centre of audio experimentation rests proudly on the shoulders of DJs such as Hawtin and the M-nus stable.

Mesmerizing visuals perfectly synchronized to the music, and a stage set-up that allows all of the M-nus artists to seamlessly mix together, blurs the line between when one DJ or live act begins, or ends. Hawtin, Magda, Pierce, Houle, Gaiser, Heartthrob, JPLS, Ambivalent, Barem & Fabrizio Maurizi become one...

A massive custom LED lighting installation will be rigged across the main stage, state-of-the-art surround sound will be especially customised to fit the Academy, and the main hall will have a full dance-floor fitted.

This ground breaking show is back for one night ONLY in London's world famous O2 Academy Brixton. Its the only chance to catch M-nus this year in the UK and is Richie Hawtin's ONLY London club show til 2010. Make sure you join the movers and shakers from across the Europe, who will once again descend on London's biggest and most impressive performance spaces for this once in a life-time music and visual spectacular

TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE ON THE DOOR FROM 9:30PM

I've been to fabric later than 5.45.. maybe they didn't like the look of you!

I'm asking myself, did I go to the same event as everyone else here did?

I thought the visuals were tacky, and the sound was too loud to be enjoyable. Volume does not equal quality. A ton of fucked up idiots, and a dry stage atmosphere. Like watching people in an internet cafe, with an Itunes visualiser in the background with the performers name scrolling amidst stupid comments like 'whoo! brixton yeah! jamie from essex' Honestly, not even Britney... More
