Friday, July 8th - - - - Hercules and Love Affair (DJ Set) soundcloud Hercules and Love Affair is a dance music project created by American DJ, singer, composer, musician and producer Andy Butler in 2004. Consisting of a rotating cast of performers and musicians, the band work within the genres of house music, disco, techno and nu-disco. Originally based in New York City, now based in Ghent, Belgium, Hercules and Love Affair were founded following Butler's collaboration with Anohni to produce the song "Blind", which was a hit single and became Pitchforks song on of the year.

The band went on to record two albums for Moshi Moshi, Blue Songs in 2011, and then The Feast of the Broken Heart in 2014 which featured John Grant as guest on the single "I Try To Talk To You". Their fourth album Omnion released in 2017 by Atlantic Records, featured Sharon Van Etten on the title track. [3] After a five-year hiatus, the band released their fifth album In Amber on 17 June 2022 with Anohni featuring on several songs. - - - - Madam X soundcloud DJ, label head and club impresario Madam X has proved she has many strings to her bow. Equally adept at playing to huge crowds as she is 100-cap basements, as well as hosting her own shows on BBC Radio 1, Rinse FM and NTS hosting guests like Mall Grab, Lauren Flax, Darwin & more, her multi-faceted approach to music feels unique and ultimately, special. The proud head of her own label, Kaizen, too - an imprint she launched with extensive, free compilation ‘Kaizen Movements Vol.1’ in the summer of 2014 - Madam X is already overseeing the label’s debut release proper, as well as hosting Kaizen label parties across the UK. With support from DJ Seinfeld, Loefah, Four Tet, Bambounou & more, her work with Kaizen has ultimately fed into her work as a DJ too, ensuring she has kept her ear firmly to the ground, while arming her with the hands-on experience of releasing records independently. Although often understated and keen to let the music do most of her talking, she continues to build on past successes - for every gig she plays. - - - - Adam Kraft (Fake and Gay / Bread) soundcloud - - - - Chuck Gunn (Joy Tactics) soundcloud - - - - DJ M3 (Green Gorilla Lounge) soundcloud - - - - Goddollars (A Club Called Rhonda) soundcloud
