Roll up, roll up… last forbidden characters of this season – and have we got a veritable smorgasbord of Northern music lined up for you!

From Liverpool please welcome Contraption, the one-man electronica project of Kneil. Laptop in hand, his live performance will fuse moods through varying styles of electronica...from electro to drum n bass...industrial to breakbeat...always with a sleazy swagger, dirty beat and a passion for the inventive.

From Newcastle we have the musical whirlwind that is Urban Geisha! Born and raised in the Ukraine, she first nurtured her love of music as a Promoter & MC at underground parties. This chica will be spinning some eye-popping durty grimey dub-step, chalk up your dancing shoes…

From Leeds we have our very own Annie Erez, doing her techno tour de force; expect anything from stripped-back noises right through to nosebleed territory. She is a stalwart of the Leeds club scene and beyond…..

Paizan will be on residential duties with some non-conformist deep minimal techno. She’ll be accompanied by opera singer and Hybrids collaborator Jenny Kosmowsky. Jenny’s lush operatic improvisations over Paizan’s set will leave you with a rich sonic experience or perhaps scratching your head in musical fusion confusion. As ever, Digital Donut will provide a stunning visual backdrop to the occasion with Voodoo Si snapping away in the background – all your Christmases come early!!!
