The brains behind Blogger's Delight and High Horse continue to explore new and exciting territories with a new bi-monthly experiment at London's most intriguing new venue, the 800 capacity XOYO, tucked neatly behind the Old Street roundabout.
Aiming to bring together a diverse yet coherent line-up each and every time, BleeD is an ambitious attempt at reinvigorating Friday nights in Shoreditch by transporting the crowd to an alien world, soundtracked by true visionaries of past and present.
Oni Ayhun’s music is (about) drama. OA makes records that combine disturbed music on the border to insanity with free dreamy drone stories without a beat. Like a surrealistic musical with a narrative based on associations, abstractions and confusion, the music is a journey through multiple settings and scenes. This will be the debut UK performance from the hand behind the unequivocal OAR series.

Daniel (Oneohtrix Point Never) Lopatin has accomplished something many musicians making so-called experimental music fail to do: open our ears to new sonic possibilities and, more importantly, force us to reconsider and rewire some of our most basic assumptions. His rise over the course of this year follows the release of the retrospective compilation, 'Rifts', as well as the incredibly well received album on Fennesz's Editions Mego Imprint, 'Returnal'. The attention continues to grow to a climax, with a soon to be released collaboration with Antony Hegarty of Antony & The Jonson's fame. This will be his first London show since May, and the last opportunity to see his incredible, emotive live show in 2010.

Veronica Vasicka is the impetus behind Minimal Wave, a label that specializes in creating vinyl editions of late 70s to early 80s synth wave music. Most of the time, the albums have never been released on vinyl before. The source material is varied between old cassettes, cassette compilations and reel-to-reel tapes. These high quality editions are hand-numbered and feature lovely artwork and printed inserts with graphics and information about the bands. Her DJ sets range from Minimal Electro to dark Italo Disco and House mixed in with classic New Wave. She likes to tell a story when spinning and to teach the crowd about the roots of electronic music. She has a fantastic talent for synthesizing her influences into an unforgettable night of dancing.

Teengirl Fantasy are a Merok signed American duo, dealing in dreamy defragmented house music. Woozy, warm and nostalgic, they're about as unmissable and integral a support act as one could hope for.
DJ support on the night comes in the form of three young men who have made a name for themselves by continually pushing past their own musical comfort zones. They've all been heavily involved in some groundbreaking events in London, Glasgow and beyond, and they've all ravenously devoured the output of tonight's headliners. Never a dull moment, unless it's leading somewhere rewarding.
