Fingerprint with Mirko Loko
16th Jan 2010
Spektrum, Manchester
11pm – 5am £10
Mirko Loko (Candenza) | Esseker (Pram) | Brad Parkins |
Iain Dixon
It’s Fingerprint time again and it’s all set to go off once
again: After the deep dubby house of Clive Henry last
month, things are decidedly airier this month with Cadenza
man Mirko Loko the guest.
Having toured in DJ super group Aether with Luciano this
summer, and after a strong debut LP ‘Seventynine’ it’s
been a good year for the Swiss DJ and producer. His DJ
sets weave long drawn out percussive sections with micro
house and minimal techno touches. While Loko aims for the
dance floor, he also reportedly is found “ducking into
shadowy corners in search of more private emotions” so
why wouldn’t you want to join him. On his musical journey?
Esseker from Pram also makes an appearance in the heart
of the derelict warehouses that is Spektrum. He’s played
alongside the likes of Joel Mull, Damien Schwarz and Pier
Bucci at top clubs around the world, so make sure you
bring your dancing shoes.
Residents Brad Parkins and Iain Dixon work their crowd
before the headliners get on every month, and make the
most of the club’s punchy soundsystem. From house to
techno and all in between, the residents know exactly what
to play to build things nicely. Their Spektrum home is a
darkened loft space with floor to ceiling speakers and a DJ
booth right in amongst it: a suitably underground setting
for a wised-up party.
