Line-up / Slam, Heidi (Jackathon)
'BBC Radio 1's Residency' presenter Heidi, joins Slam at Return To Mono in November. Originally from Windsor, Ontario, but now residing in London, Heidi is one of the most respected female DJs and label owners in house and techno. Heidi's Radio 1 residency has a massive following, and it's not hard to see why when you look her consistently adventurous playlists and the high-calibre guests DJs that feature. Artists like Matthew Dear, Steve Bug & Andrew Weatherall have all recently taken part in the show.
The Jackathon started in 2008 as a party series, and Heidi has brought it to clubs and festivals around the world since then. In July 2011 she released 'Heidi presents The Jackathon' on Get Physical; a mix CD that packs in 16 tracks that were made specifically for the mix. Heidi - "I asked 16 artists that I admire to make an exclusive track for me as a little gift to the people who have supported what I do-some known, some unknown,". Artist like Derrick Carter, Soul Clap, deetron, Juan MacLean and Jamie Jones all contributed to the mix.
The next stage was the launch of her label of the same name. The Get Physical staple started her 'Jackathon' label earlier this year and is already working with artists like Maya Jane Coles, Miss Kitten & tINI.
Heidi will be sure to rock the Sub Club on 9th November!
