NEW ACTS ANNOUNCED

MK
Hannah Wants
Claptone
CamelPhat
KC Lights
Plus very special guest: Julio Bashmore

From a summer residency at the clubbing mecca that is Amnesia to high profile live shows at Coachella;Gorgon City’s success is down to their unique ability to saddle between the underground and commercial spheres. Their sell out Brixton Academy show in October last year confirmed the London pair as one of the most dominant acts around right now and the August Bank Holiday weekend will witness them return home to flaunt their LIVE show. With this being the only place in the capital you can see the pair performing LIVE this summer, we highly recommend getting in gear and securing your place at London’s number one dance music festival!

After blazing into the hearts and minds of the international music community with a modernized twist on g-house and indebted four-to-the-floor, Amine Edge & DANCE are looking to continue their meteoric rise with another string of sell out shows and prime-time festival slots in 2017. With support flooding in from industry heavyweights Loco Dice and Pete Tong and a collection of awards to their name, you can rest assured AE&D are going to bring bass to the Area 10 Arena this August Bank Holiday Saturday.

Originally discovered following the submission of one of his tracks to BBC Introducing, TCTS regularly reiceves staunch support from Radio 1 powerhouses like Annie Mac and Mistajam. His track ‘Icy Feet’ proved so popular it recently got re-released with the addition of vocals from everyone’s favourite ‘Milkshake’ maker Kelis and award-winning rapper Sage The Gemini. TCTS is a key artist to watch for 2017 so we thought we’d invite him down to the common for his SW4 debut!

Regarded as one of the most popular dance music artists of the last two decades, MK is amongst the hottest artists on the planet! There really isn’t a crowd that he can’t get moving as he effortlessly controls any dance floor he’s put in front of. From classics such as ‘Burning’ to modern day bangers like ‘My Head Is a Jungle’, MK is one of the best remixer’s in electronic dance music. Saturday 26th August will see him bring AREA 10 to South West Four for the very first time as he gets set to showcase the most accomplished line up in the label’s history!

The queen of dance music, Hannah Wants, simply knows no stopping. Bursting onto the scene a few years ago, Hannah continues her meteoritic rise to the top and is firmly established in the dance music elite. A stellar residency at Together at Amnesia and countless sell out tours around the planet has seen her amass an army of fans worldwide and London is no different. Having debuted at SW4 in 2015 and attracting a huge crowd in the process, she will return in 2017 bringing her raw energy and excellent song selection to Clapham Common…

Returning for a third time, this mysterious enigma prepares for another aural assault at SW4. That jazzy re-work of ‘Liquid Spirit’ was labelled last year’s feel good anthem, with widespread acclaim catapultingClaptone into the next league of electronic music artists. Since then a capacity show at London’s illustrious Electric Brixton, regular performances at Ministry of Sound, plus Amnesia Ibiza amongst others and the burgeoning popularity of Claptone’s raucous parties under ‘The Masquerade’ banner – deem this a flagship inclusion for SW4 2017.

In 2015, KC Lights illuminated the house music genre as ‘No No No’ became the definitive Ibiza anthem of that year. The smash hit soared to No.3 and No.10 respectively in the dance charts for Radio 1 and Shazam, leading to Annie Mac proclaiming ‘Yes Yes Yes’ for inclusion in her namesake compilation ‘AM Presents…’ A career defining moment then, which has continued to grow with frequent collaborations and performances alongside heavyweights MK, Rudimental, Danny Howard and Hannah Wants. We are super stoked for this Glaswegian producer to bring his melodic and fresh sound to South West Four!

Julio Bashmore’s distinctive sound dictates he always stands tall from the crowd. Taking influence from icons such as Daft Punk and Cassius, Julio has managed to hone his sound down the years to produce some of the most accomplished house music tracks of recent times. Pushing a unique sound to earn endorsements from Annie Mac and Carl Cox, as well as headline shows throughout Europe on a regular basis, Julio joins an array of the scene’s stalwarts to make his long awaited SW4 debut on Saturday 26th August.
