FABRICLIVE 48: FILTHY DUKES OUT TODAY!
Having proven their studio ability on the aptly named ‘Nonsense in the Dark’, FABRICLIVE 48 sees the Filthy Dukes going back to what they know best: uproarious, incendiary DJ sets that sizzle through a smorgasboard of genres. Not so much crossing boundaries as erasing them completely, coupling pulsating kick drums, with dreamy melodies, the Dukes meld song-writing sensibilities with an ability to turn a dancefloor upside down. Throw down your preconceptions and discard your notions of the sounds of a fabric main room - this is the Filthy Dukes, and this is how they Kill ‘Em All. The mix ducks and dives through styles and sounds without a moment’s respite – setting the pace from the off with their own gloriously synth-laden stomper ‘This Rhythm’, they move through ‘Beat The Clock’ by the legendary Sparks, Aeroplane’s disgustingly brilliant Italo remix of Sebastian Tellier – straight out the book of Daft Punk, and even manage to drift in and out of Aphex Twin’s classic ‘Windowlicker’ before the close.
