NEWSFLASH: Erol Alkan To Mix FABRICLIVE 77

Renowned DJ and producer Erol Alkan is set to deliver the next installment of the FABRICLIVE series on 22nd September 2014. London born and bred, Alkan has spent the last two decades building up a reputation as a sonic innovator. From genre-spanning sets at his own legendary Trash club night to regular appearances at Bugged Out, via production credits including Late Of The Pier and Kindness and remixes for the likes of Metronomy, Tame Impala and Justice, his inimitable brand of mutant techno electro disco has soundtracked a generation. In 2007 Alkan’s burgeoning label Phantasy was born, the springboard for critically acclaimed releases from artists including Daniel Avery, Connan Mockasin and newest signing Ghost Culture, and he last year made his own solo debut with the release of the Illumination EP, drawing praise from the Guardian, Pitchfork, NME and more. With the solo release under his belt the time was right for Erol to step up to the FABRICLIVE mantle. “I certainly didn’t want this mix to be a flyer or advert for me as a DJ. I feel this mix is quite specific to fabric as they are all records I would want to play in that environment. Even though I have had the benefit of playing all 3 rooms on a regular basis, this mix feels like it was designed for Room 1. It's influenced by the sight lines from the perspective behind the decks, the lights, the fact that sometimes all you can see are hands reaching into the booth, as well as those behind you dancing alone in the corners.” – Erol Alkan FABRICLIVE 77: Erol Alkan will be out on 22nd September 2014 Pre-order it here: http://bit.ly/FABRICLIVE77 Erol Alkan will be launching the album in Room One on Friday 12th September with Rub N Tug, The Emperor Machine live and Dark Circles.
