XOYO Residency Series 2016: Scuba presents 12 Weeks of Techno

We look ahead to our third year of the residency series… With every three months comes a new curator, a new opportunity to re-invent the sound of our Saturday nights.

With our first resident of the year we prepare to explore new ground as they present 12 Weeks of Techno. The artist who’ll be leading us? We’re proud to announce Scuba will be our first quarter resident of 2016.

A man of reinvention, Scuba’s crossed genres over the years evolving into one of Europe’s most influential and durable figures in dance music.

Alongside his acclaimed SUB:STANCE parties at Berghain and a relentless touring schedule, his position has been further cemented via plentiful releases on imprints such as Aus and his own label Hotflush.

This year saw him bring out his fourth album Claustrophobia; this record more than ever showing his dramatic approach to techno – a blueprint for his upcoming residency.

“I grew up with the club scene in London but since leaving for Berlin in 2007 I’ve only played in the city two or three times per year. The residency appealed to me because it’s a chance to properly reconnect with the London scene, to present music that I love on a weekly basis, and to invite guests who I respect and admire” says Scuba.

Playing every Saturday in January, February and March, Scuba has enlisted a powerful roster of talent to play alongside of him.

“It’s called 12 Weeks Of Techno so there’s not much ambiguity about the music policy. But techno means many different things to different people and there’s a really wide spectrum to the music. So when thinking about the guests I wanted to be as wide ranging as possible within that techno parameter and put together lineups that covered the full variety of what techno means to people. “

A double announcement, we’re proud to unveil the full schedule for the fast-approaching 12 Weeks of Techno.
