Filth 3rd Birthday

FILTH 3RD BIRTHDAY: FAITHLESS SOUND SYSTEM LIVE

FRIDAY 26TH FEBRUARY 2010 @ THE O2 ACADEMY, LEEDS

BOOM! And Filth is 3 already. That’s 36 months of partying as hard as anyone could, to the best soundtracks possible from the freshest artists around, and that calls for a celebration of mammoth proportions. To celebrate all this, a huge festival sized line-up of the sort never seen at a Leeds club is being brought to the city.

Dance music heroes Faithless bring their Live Soundsystem to play their biggest hits, more classic tracks and hot material from their forthcoming 2010 LP ‘Calling all the Faithful’ and the O2 Academy in Leeds is going to be transformed into an all singing all dancing, colour splashed rave paradise! Faithless are known the world over for their anthemic, stadium filling dance sounds, brooding vocals and epic breakdowns, so to catch them do all that live is a rare treat.

As if that wasn’t enough on its own, tonight is the long awaited Leeds debut of John Dahlback. He’s a Swede tech house master, boss of top label Pickadoll . Then there’s Toolroom Records’ Funkagenda whose productions for the label have been everywhere this year after great success with his ‘08 remix of techno classic ‘The Man with the Red Face’ and more recently with the release of his first Toolroom Knights album. He’s so hot in 2009 he won DJ Mag’s Best Breakthrough Artists Award at this year’s Best of British party – big room house never sounded better.

Style of Eye is another breakthrough star of 2009 (and exclusive Filth resident for 2010) having turned in one of the Essential Mixes of the year, and his LP also smashed up the rule book tearing through big bass-lined house, punchy electro and percussive techno with ease. He’s another Swede and has released on Dirtybird, OM and Pickadoll in the past. He’s essential listening in 09.

On a mashed up electro, house, tech and just about anything else tip, Alex Metric is your man: He stormed the scene this year including a breathtaking set at Glade which impressed everyone who saw it, and isn’t afraid to mix up the styles in order to get a party going, and keep it going. His own pumped up productions have come on respected labels like Lot49 and Four:Twenty and new EP 'It Starts' is out end of January on Marine Parade with Alex's very first video (from the same director as Gnarls Barkley 'Run') and remixes from Primary 1, Reset! and Evil Nine.

As well as residents Danny Savage and Eddie Zanetti, Foamo is also on this huge birthday line-up. He’ll bring to the table everything from house to dubstep to techno, and gigs all over the world alongside the likes of Erol Alkan and Foamo is also a resident at the legendry Chew The Fat! in London, and is resident at We Love Sundays at Space, Ibiza for summer 2009

Expect the O2 to be transformed with the usual attention to detail any Filth party has: throughout the whole venue there will be fire breathers, acrobats, stunt men performing, blasts of ice cannons to get lost in, some mind bending visuals and the usual red-hot Filth dancers!

Filth pack their usual home, Mint, each month such is the appeal of their parties, the quality of their guests and the joys of their crowd. They do the right thing, then, by expanding for this event and giving it their all: the excitable, pretention free girls and boys who’ve made Filth so special will be out in force for this, so get amongst them and see what the fuss is all about.

If you can’t wait until 26th Feb, celebrations start early on Sat 13th Feb when Filth fly teenage prodigies the Martinez Brothers for an exclusive 5 hour set!
