NEWSFLASH: Illum Sphere To Mix FABRICLIVE 78

It's easy to trace Ryan Hunn aka Illum Sphere's impact on the Manchester music scene. Once Hoya:Hoya (the night he started with Jonny Dub back in 2008) was spotted by the keen eyes at fabric, the collective were invited to fabric’s Room Three in 2011 and following its immediate success they moved to Room Two where they now hold their quarterly residency. “Room Two is a perfect balance; our visual artist Emmanuel uses the stage solely for his visuals, we play music from the booth and it just seems to work so well. You also have some people looking at whoever’s playing and some at the visuals, so the focus is less so on the DJ and more spread.” As an artist Illum Sphere has released music on Ninja Tune, Young Turks, 3024, Fat City and Tectonic, remixed for the likes of Radiohead, Martyn, Kuedo, Lorn, Zed Bias, MONEY and as a DJ has played across the world. Constructed in the comfort of his own home, Illum Sphere’s FABRICLIVE mix is inspired by the sounds one might hear during his DJ sets in Room Two.

"I decided to stick to more electronic based music, from new wave, dub, techno, acid, etc. In terms of range I think the oldest thing is probably late 70s and the newest thing came out this year.” - Illum Sphere
