Having launched to a great reception in 2013, Night Train continues to pick up steam with the peerless Moritz Von Oswald, Larse, Mark Henning, Him_Self_Her plus Kieran Fowkes (live) and Warboy all playing on January 11th.
A true electronic legend, Moritz von Oswald, half of both Basic Channel and Maurizio, is one of the most influential producers of techno music in the 1990s and single handedly laid down a blueprint for dub techno that remains to this day. He co-founded the seminal Basic Channel label with Mark Ernestus, whose various releases came to epitomize minimal techno. As part of the Berlin/Detroit axis, Basic Channel characterized minimal techno along with other artists like Rob Hood, Jeff Mills, Mike Banks, and UR. Living in Berlin, von Oswald was also part of a music scene that pivoted around the Tresor Club and record label, as well as Hard Wax, the record store founded by Ernestus. Basic Channel and Maurizio records are characterized by a 4x4 beats with dub-inflected syncopated synth pads slowly modulated over time, most 12"s containing tracks that take up the entire side of each record.
Germany’s Larse meanwhile is a current hot property. His releases on Noir, Dikso Records and True Romance have carved out his own sonic niche – on that is influenced by disco but couched in deep house music and one that showcases a proud production technique. His ‘Karoo’ track also got used on Maya Jane Coles’ DJ Kicks in 2012 and as a DJ Larse is versatile and democratic in his selections.
London's Mark Henning has risen up as one of the underground's true players by recording for a volley of international house and techno labels. Born to English and German parents, he has spent most of his life in England, though has never forgotten his German roots and is now firmly settled in Berlin. Since quitting his city job in 2007 he's been nominated for a DJ Mag award, toured all over the world, released an album and countless well-received and heavily supported EPs and remixes.
Him_Self_Her, who have been lighting up dancefloors and dance charts with their tunes on Be Free, Runnin Wild and others also play and will be doing a first London DJ set complete with vocalist Kieran Fowkes, who has featured on a number of their tracks including the Crosstown Rebels hit 'Gone Too Long'.
