After an epic 2011 that included visits from James Blake, Joy Orbison, Ben UFO, Blawan, Sbtrkt and loads more, Abandon Silence move in to the new year with a record label takeover that has truly been over 18 months in the waiting.
Night Slugs has been one of the foremost labels in the UK Bass Music genre, with a catalogue of releases over the last 2 years to rival any other stable.
For this special night we are proud to welcome label bosses L Vis 1990 and Bok Bok to host proceedings all night long. An epic 5 hour set encompassing all areas of bass music, this promises to be one of the most memorable Abandon Silences to date.
L VIS 1990
L Vis 1990, real name James Connolly, had a huge 2011; a couple of single releases earlier in the year were followed by the hotly anticipated Neon Dream LP on Island Records. The album was one of the year's most acclaimed records, popping up on many of the 'End of year' lists. He will be making his Abandon Silence debut alongside his label mate...
BOK BOK
Making his Liverpool debut with this unique show, we cannot express how happy we are to be hosting Bok Bok at The Shipping Forecast. His 2011 EP, Southside, came out in mid-2011 in a maelstrom of hype due to a number it's heavy tracklist featuring some of the producer's best ever work. Tracks like Silo Pass and Hyperpass ran the Spring and Summer playlists, encorporating the sounds of house, techno and grime to devastating effect.
With a calendar of further stellar guests to come, as well a huge 2nd Birthday bash in June, we cannot wait to share 2012 with you once again.
