Future Disco Vol 8
Inspired by the people behind nightlife institutions and featuring many of its faces, Needwant present the eighth episode of the awardwinning Future Disco series, ‘Nighttime Networks’
“Clubs have always been a reflection of the people that inhabit them. From the DJ to the lighting technician, the bar staff and the security, it takes a whole host of likeminded people to make a special venue work. Whether it be Trouw, Fabric, Plastic People, Sub Club, Space, DC10 or hundreds of other unique and remarkable venues across the world, they all connected by shared characteristics: a dedicated team working behind the scenes, front of house personalities and the unwavering, funloving crowds, all with a shared vision, establishing and framing their own culture. It’s the people that inhabit them that make the venues what the are, the feelings created and expressed in them, not the cold walls of the building itself.” Sean Brosnan on Future Disco 8
Future Disco is renowned for heralding forthcoming heroes and were among the first to recognise the talents of artists such as Tensnake and Todd Terje, yet still unafraid to probe the more unexplored corners of electronic music. ‘Nighttime Networks’ goes further and examines those behind the scenes and the mystery contained in those lost nights and cavernous spaces. This is a musical odyssey that boldly entwines rare and feisty remixes of Hot Chip, Zoot Woman and Crazy P’s Danielle Moore through to intriguing material from newcomers MUSK, Johannes Brecht, VIMES, Weval and Few Nolder, in a coherent and connected sequence that pays homage to the networks that create those special memories.
Future Disco has won numerous accolades including iTunes Electronic Album Of The Year, spearheaded by Sean Brosnan and his Needwant imprint. Also an event format, its residencies include the summer series at Space, Ibiza for Carl Cox Presents, to as far afield as Singapore and Amsterdam.
