  • Squarepusher takes Sonar to the limit image
  • sonarBarcelona's boundary pushing electronic music festival, Sonar, is launching a London night to celebrate its tenth birthday with Squarepusher firmly on the lead controls. In association with its main sponsor San Miguel, the celebrations kick off at Ocean in Hackney on Saturday 30 May with a suitably boundary pushing line-up... Expect live sets from electronic free form maestro Squarepusher and robotic look and sound alikes Ladytron, a laptop set from Warp stable artist Plaid, DJ sets from MJ Cole, Trevor Jackson (Playgroup), and James Murphy (LCD Soundsystem) who makes up one half of NYC's current electro buzz outfit - The DFA. Spread out over two rooms (Ocean 1 & Ocean 2), we say get the sweatbands on and crack out the perspex jewellery....it'll be great. SonarClub@London Friday 30 May Doors open: 09.00 pm Tickets: 13.50 ukp
