Gartner and Defex. We now after a summer full of musical inspiration and
contemplation come back with a slinky bang.The GAG awards are a showcase of the pioneering young blood shaking the
underground establishment. The categories include OG AWARD / BEST LIVE TECHNO /
INTERNATIONAL WUNDERKIND AWARD / BEST NORTHERN RESIDENT. In celebration of the
awards the artists will be showing you their skills in the midst of 15,000 LED

wonk. Alongside resident Malcolm Murra we will be welcoming back Why I
impresario Ali Haszlak – freshly returned from adding a music production course
to his dazzling DJ technical capabilities. Disco Stu will be making his long
anticipated Gouranga Debut – ensuring our room will spend as much time building
up the ambience as a Scotsmen battering a mars bar. His dancefloor orientated
style is one of his many admirable traits we know you will enjoy.********************************************************** ****************
OG AWARD ==== TRAVOR JACKSON – Output Records Impressario
We will be recognising Trevor’s dedication to music by awarding him the OG
Award for his huge contribution to the London scene. His Output Record label
was founded in 1996 and found success releasing the likes of The Rapture, Black
Strobe and LCD Soundsystem After closing down Output in 2006 (RIP) Trevor’s DJ
skills, insane knowledge of music and ability to create a party remain firmly
in tact. He shall bring a sensei’s know how to proceedings.********************************************************** ****************
BEST LIVE TECHNO ===== SPEKTRE – veryverywrongindeed
Their sinful sounds draw inspiration from early R&S releases, Joey Beltram,
right through to modern masterminds such as M.A.N.D.Y, Plasmik and
Trentemoller. They use their combined experiences of minimalism to produce dark
sinister sounds mixed in with twisted vocals and unnerving foundations, whilst
remaining accessible to the crowds.Connoisseur of the scene Oliver Huntemann, snatched up Spektre’s early releases
for his own label “Dance Electric.†Since then the pair have earnt admiration
and support from Sven Vath to Tim Sheridan, Audiojack to Fergie. Championing
their sound, tracks such as “A Glimpse Outside†became immediate hits –
launched straight onto DJ Mags cover cd. Further successes like “Haze†and
“Minimalist Machinist†gained huge popularity in the clubs internationally,
played by the likes of Mike Monday and Audiofly while one of Spektres offerings
“Hover†was thrashed out at Cocoon by the legendary Sven Vath on New Years Eve,
sure signs that this pair had indeed arrived.An exciting future lies ahead for Spektre with their debut album released to
Tim Sheridans VVVWI recordings, pushing them out onto that minimal edge even
further. Alongside a demanding release schedule on several different labels,
one thing is certain, this year Spektre can do no wrong. This year they have
been at the forefront of British Techno with their spot on production gaining
huge success with techno lovers across the globe. A Spektre remix lines many a
big tune DJ’s bag after there releases this year.********************************************************** ****************
