Optimo, Sat 23rd April

The eponymously-titled club night may have closed its doors in 2010, but this innovative DJ duo are still keeping the dust off dance floors with guest appearances such as their upcoming ‘all night’ set (presciently subtitled, ‘Until The Music Stops’) at Patterns.

Hosted by 1 Brighton FM’s Vanishing Point, returning to the venue after a sold out night in October, JD Twitch and JG Wilkes are poised to deliver a set that should slide effortlessly between genres. The approach which kept punters flocking to their residency at Glasgow’s Sub Club for so many years was anything goes, as long as it’s good. These guys will have you shuddering to cold wave one moment, then rattling like an alarm clock to pounding techno the next.

They’ve produced remixes for the likes of chart botherers Django Django, Hot Chip, and Chvrches, but are also strongly influenced by 80s industrial such as Front 242 and Throbbing Gristle. As for which elements will feature more prominently in their mix, well, you’ll have to go along to find out.

Patterns, Saturday 23rd April 2016, 11pm – 4am
