MUTATIONS EPISODE 5: SARIN

Lineup

SARIN
VIRUN (LIVE)
TALKING DRUMS
Chernobyl Steve
DEADEYEZOPENED
Mutations returns for a final outing of 2024 on the evening of Friday 29 Nov; leaving our current home Overdraught to experiment in pastures new in the form of the fantastic city centre space Aatma. We bring Sarin over from Berlin to perform a DJ set in Manchester for the first time in 6 years since playing alongside Ancient Methods at Meat Free back in 2018. Originally hailing from Canada, he is one of the most radical acts in contemporary EBM and industrial techno, with outstanding releases on renowned international labels such as BITE, Aufnahne + Weidergabe and X-IMG. His current collaborative projects include Human Performance Lab, Devikorps and General Dynamics (who we were blown away by earlier this year at Grauzone Festival) Destructive percussion and synths form the basis of his mind-altering sound, and we are extremely excited for his extended set. We will also have a peak time live EBM set from Virun. After being so impressed by their performance at Mutations Episode 2 we wanted to invite them back to hear the fantastic new material they’ve been putting to test through their multitude of machines. Finally we are delighted to have Talking Drums on board. In their own words “a loose crew of disco wierdos” Their free-flowing, far reaching and fun approach to playing records has seen them pack dance floors across the UK and Europe. Their releases draw inspiration from the weirder ends of neo-noir dark disco sounds making them the perfect low slung party starters. As always support comes from your Mutations residents – Chernobyl Steve and Deadeyezopened. See you under the neon!

NEW BLOOD UK TOUR 2023 WITH THE DEVIL AND THE UNIVERSE + DEAD LIGHTS & VANILLA SUGAR

DEVIL & THE UNIVERSE Biography:

Two cards selected from the 78-piece tarot card-set as utilised by the most famous occultist of the 20th century Aleister Crowley, were behind the first step. ”The Devil” and “The Universe” were the cards pulled that would prophesize a name for a musical-magical-transcendental composition & transformation project: THE DEVIL & THE UNIVERSE. The three goat-masked musicians set out to create an eclectic blend of styles, sounds and atmospheres. Tribal drums meet 80’s electronica, industrial beats merge with middle eastern percussions, soundtrack like atmospheres conjure up dreams of a future that never was. A dance ritual for a future past. An exercise in trance for a past yet to come. Thus far they have released 6 albums and numerous Eps and singles.

DEAD LIGHTS BIOGRAPHY:

Glamgoth? Cyberelectro? Industrial Dance? DEAD LIGHTS presents all of these and more as they mould modern EBM into catchy songs with surgical precision. Bass-heavy, buzzing magnetism with pummeling, yet groovy, mechanical rhythms, delivered with an ’80s UK synth-pop flair and an urgency that is tangible.
Founded in 2020, the international duo (UK and NL) immediately found themselves separated by the sea and a pandemic. Connected through a lust for dark electronic dance music, Saul and Richard still managed to make an impact with their output. Two years later they were finally able to meet in person and present their songs on stage. After their live premiere at Wave Gotik Treffen in 2022, they toured in Germany, the UK (with Zanias), and early 2023 they supported Front Line Assembly on 10 shows (EU), followed by several festival gigs in Europe.DEAD LIGHTS will release their new album ‘Glitterspit’ (Digi/CD/2LP on DarkTunes Music Group) on 13 October.

VANILLA SUGAR Biography:

LA based Vanilla Sugar pushes the envelope of unprecedented sound. Her eclectic style blends melodic and growl vocals, synthesizer, guitars, heavy beats and savage drops.
