Spending half an hour in the company of Seth Troxler’s sparking imagination is always an exhilarating ride. Buzzing with ideas, theories and analogies when we...

We knew that already! Whether you’re still buying it – and there’s plenty of labels and DJs releasing and playing the stuff – or if you’re just hanging on to those extra special records, you’ll be glad to discover these neat leather boxes, lined with cotton tartan. Coming in 5 colours, and two different sizes – 12” and 7” friendly – although we reckon a 10” version won’t be long in coming.

January is a notoriously slow month in clubland — a time when gym memberships take priority over all-nighters and pennies are scraped together. Many top...

We all set ourselves impossible targets at the end of each year. If we had a dollar for every time we heard someone say “I've quit” to see them puffing on a tar stick in the smoking area of Fabric on Friday night, we'd be richer than Richard Branson.

The Social Festival, taking place at the beautiful Mote Park of Maidstone, Kent at the end of September.

Some days you wake up and just have a blinder — for Dusky that blinder has been pretty much every day for the last year. It’s fair to say that the London duo have — in technical parlance — well-and-truly smashed it. Number #1 iTunes Dance Single of 2012? In the bag with the beyond-ubiquitous 'Flo Jam'. Radio 1 Essential Mix? Done, knocked off with style, and shortlisted for mix of the year. They’ve helped shift the paradigms for dubstep and house, had productions rinsed by everyone from Loefah to Calvin Harris, and killed it in Ibiza at DC-10. Ebullient and still humble, is it any surprise that Dusky producers Alfie Granger-Howell and Nick Harriman are loving life right now?

Richard H. Kirk, the electronic musician best known as founder of pioneering industrial group Cabaret Voltaire has died, aged 65.

In 2012 it seems that Fabric’s biggest competitor has been the new phenomenon of ‘TBA’. From overground electro to underground techno parties, promoters in the capital have been looking to keep their parties fresh by exploring as many unused venues as possible and simply listing them as To Be Announced right up until the last minute.
