Fabric

Fabric is set to relaunch Room Three with a huge new soundsystem, it has been confirmed. 

Kode9 & Burial have mixed the final FabricLive compilation, marking the end of an era of albums that started 17 years ago. 

No strangers to collaborating, the two icons, respectively head of the rightly-lauded Hyperdub label and its first signee— Britain's elusive master of spooky post-garage— were confirmed for the last instalment today, which will arrive on 28th September.

Fabric have revealed the bulk of their Saturday night line-ups taking them through until the end of the year with the likes of Seth Troxler, Joseph Capriati and KiNK all newly confirmed to play at the club. 

The new series of dates kicks off on 13th October with Craig Richards and Prosumer leading the charge in the main room, while Mike Servito and Magda will play an extended b2b in the second room.

Fabric is throwing an epic 30-hour marathon party to celebrate its 19^th birthday, running from Saturday 20th to Monday 22nd October.

The Farringdon club, which re-opened last year, has announced the first wave of acts on the line-up for its huge birthday celebration, which naturally features long-time residents Craig Richards and Terry Francis, alongside other big names like Joy Orbison.

Classic rave flyers and club artwork are celebrated in a new book, 'Clubbed: A Visual History of UK Club Culture', which has been published thanks to a Kickstarter campaign. 

The coffee table must-have honours the finest graphic design from the last 35 years of British clubland, and has been compiled by award-winning Manchester designer Rick Banks. It was officially launched in the city on Wednesday 16th May at an event run in association with the School of Electronic Music and hosted by FLOOR. 

Ever consistent London-based producer Throwing Snow will release his new EP on Fabric’s Houndstooth label this Friday 18th May.

‘Myriad / Minotaurs’ is the third release on Houndstooth from the prolific producer this year, following the brutal bass driven ‘Simmer / Subtitles’ and ‘Trébucher / Tantrum’.

deadmau5, Skrillex, Chase & Status and more artists are set to be featured on the upcoming ‘FABRICLIVE 98’ mix compilation from drum & bass artist Dimension, scheduled for release 25th May. Ahead of the release, Fabric will host a special launch party 11th May featuring Dimension, Metrik, TC, Turno, 1991, Kove and special guest Friction, with a second room hosted by Hospital Records offshoot imprint, Med School.

Jeff Mills has given his thoughts on the future of music, among other things, in a new, in-depth interview with London’s Fabric nightclub.

Craig Richards addressed his current Fabric residency in a new statement, in which he outlined his changing position at the famed London nightclub.

In a personal letter posted to the Fabric blog, Richards spoke about the future of his residency, which will see him performing less frequently to focus on other projects and endeavours. The news comes after announcing last year that he would be stepping down from his weekly Fabric London slot in 2018.
