[ K O N T R O L ]

minimal techno + avant house
every 1st Saturday at The Endup


featuring from Madrid, Spain:

ALEX UNDER ** 2 hour live PA **

Plus 8 . Trapez . CMYK Musik . Apnea

The last time Alex Under played for us, his intense aural onslaught
had the Endup crowd going absolutely mental, and prompted
resident Alland Byallo to name it in an online interview as the best
live PA he's ever seen. We are therefore supremely excited to
welcome this talented young producer and label owner back for
another sweat-soaked dancefloor pummeling before he heads to
Detroit for a headlining set at this year's DEMF.


and from Stockholm, Sweden:

AGARIC aka Patrik Skoog ** 2 hour live PA **

We Are . Leibe*Detail . Drumcode . Syndikaat

Patrik Skoog began producing in the 90's, originally focusing on
a harder techno sound which brought him global notoriety.
These days he goes by Agaric, an alias with which he delves into
the slower, deeper realms of techno and house. With over a
decade of production experience and more than 100 vinyl
releases to his name, his extended live performance is sure to
excite chin-strokers and rug-cutters alike.


plus special guest:

MYLES EGNER ( s.w.a.t . platform . tweekin' )

with resident DJs:

NIKOLA BAYTALA ( robsoul . junior boys own . s.w.a.t. )
SAMMY D ( classic . dirtybird . utensil )
CRAIG KUNA ( platform . esdjco )

ALEX UNDER (aka Friendly People, Musica Charlista)

The deepest meaning of 'collage', defined by Max Ernst, is the general application of Arthur Rimabaud's 'delirium': "I accustomed myself to simple hallucination; I saw quite deliberately a mosque instead of a factory, a drummer's school conducted by angels, carriages on the highways of the sky, a salon at the bottom of a lake: monsters, mysteries, a vaudeville poster raising horrors before my eyes." We could describe collage as an alchemic compound of two or more heterogeneous elements, derivate by their unexpected approximation generated deliberately by the search of systematic confusion and distorted perception.

That's Alex Under's musical universe. Based in Madrid, this producer is the 'CMYK' label manager. He is also one of the men behind 'Apnea' and 'Bemysheep', and one of the founders of Net28 (the network behind these labels and others like 'CyclicalTracks' and 'Pulpa'). Alex Under confirmed himself as the new reality of the best international techno, sometimes being minimal and deep, sometimes hard and aggressive, but always original. He creates a sonic collage combining techno, trance and house elements while he constructs complex rhythms that arise from the dancefloor, taking the listeners to a higher level where emotions, depth, mind & body blend in a unique equation. Alex Under will intrigue beyond your perception.
