1988 was the year Zero and now we’ve brought together a legendary old skool showcase with a dancefloor retrospective from the birth of Acid House, through the second Summer of Love and arriving in 1992 for real hardcore vibes. Outside in the sun it’s a long overdue appearance for the original bad boy garage pioneer landing amongst a host of Berlin’s finest residents for house and 2step vibes into the early hours.

• Mudfoot Blaps (GMC / Fantazia)

Inside: a genuine innovator, most famous for his Altern8 persona, Mark Archer has played his part in transforming acid house and techno since the very beginning. Bringing together Detroit techno, Chicago house, breakbeats, and other 90s dance flavours, the man also known as Nexus 21, Track Man, Bizarre Inc, Slo Moshun and Xen Mantra has a backcatalog rooted in R&S and Network Records plus a slew of others. Alongside Mark, we’re delighted to bring Smokey Joe back to Berlin. Joe was been holding it down on pirate radio with his “Crimewatch” sessions back in the day as well as releasing on several key underground labels such as Labello Blanco and his own Crimetime and Smokers Inc output. Pilgrim has been rolling out sets for the ravers since 1987, playing every big event spanning UK rave history including a residency at Quest and headline spots at Pandemonium, Helter Skelter, Dance Planet, World Dance, Entropy, Tribal Gathering, Illusion and continues to play classic old skool sets for Fantazia. Tokyo Acid CRU formed back in 2006 consisting of two acid house veterans who have since been taking their unique live flashback show around Europe alongside the likes of Placid and Radioactive Man. Birthday boy Mudfoot has been spinning wax since 92. Having joined the OCP collective with Hidden Agenda (Metalheadz) and DJ Seven (Reinforced Recs) in the mid 90s, the legendary GMC founder continues to push the sound of the era at Fantazia raves across the UK.

Outside we’re proud to present Texture Records head honcho Oris Jay – the man that wrote the book on UK Garage. Oris’s journey first started at the birth of the hugely influential Sheffield ‘bleep and bass’ sound of the late 80?s/early 90?s; a sound that’s been a prominent feature throughout his career as a DJ and producer. It was in these early years that he would find the creativity to push the boundaries of producing, taking dark-side underground anthems like ‘Biggin Up The Massive’ around the globe. Since then he has revolutionised the breaks scene and was pivotal in laying the foundations for the new century’s refocus on elements of dub. Charlie Smooth has been consistently taking dancers through a history of disco, house and techno as co-curator of the superb Get Deep nights as well as pushing forward-thinking sounds via Kleine Reise Records. We also welcome back Hamburg native MS Elbe who has established herself in Berlin over the past 10 years with a charismatic blend of deep and tasteful sounds. In addition we’re pleased to bring the secretive duo Tzk Tzk on stage representing Avotre Records and backed up by residents Practitioner and Georg Hekt!

Geht keiner hin? Mit Mark Archer (Altern-8) und Pilgrim! Soll laut Insider-Infos gut abraven.

Ist mir zu hektisch/kurzfristig/teuer am Freitag ohne Auto oder Schlafplatz, aber als Berliner würde ich...

sagt mir alles nichts...

Das ist Acid House und UK-Hardcore, '88-'92

(plus auf Area 2 wohl der Berlin-typische heutige Plink-Ploink-Electro)

Hier mal Mark Archers Set aus dem letzten Jahr:

joa, der oldschool kram ist ja ganz nett...
aber : ich habe mir geschworen nie wieder in dieses drecksloch namens suicid bla zu gehen. Ist einfach n Standart Club in Berlin mit erhöhten Preisen, arschloch-Türstehern und 80% touristen.
Achja und pling-blong den ganzen Tag.....ich frag mich immer wer so viel von dieser mukke produziert....
degenerierte techhouse scheisse

ah, gut zu wissen

Ich glaub, die Veranstalter sind englisch bzw. stammen aus England. Und Engländer kennen/mögen ja häufig Berliner Tourie-Clubs.
