This Thursday sees the first ever Irish DJ appearance of New York
Producer & DJ John Selway. Over the last decade John has
gained a reputation of being one the most versatile techno & electro
producers around. Whether it's stripped-down killer electro, dirrty Italo
disco or deep driving techno, Selway is respected from all quarters.
Testament to this is a string of releases on labels as diverse as Plus 8,
Industrial Strength, Eye Q, Yoshi Toshi & Primate. Expect to hear a wicked
selection of tracks from the likes of David Alvarado, Holger Flinsch,
Southsoniks, Technasia and Heiko Laux.

John has released over 60 eps under his own name and pseudonyms like Koenig
Cylinders, Disintegrator (with The Horrorist), Semblance Factor, Highrise
and CSM. Despite this he still finds the time to run his own labels; Tension
for techno, Serotonin for electro, Memory Boy for Italo and Rapture with
fellow New Yorker techno producer Abe Duque. His accomplished production
style has seen him remix Sven Vath, Detroit Grand Pubahs, Fischerspooner,
Japanese Telecom and Headroom. These releases are a constant feature in the
sets of Dave Clarke, Jeff Mills, Richie Hawtin and Sven Vath.

In recent years, John has achieved great success in his work with Christian
Smith. This highly sought-after collaboration have released EP's and various
remixes on some of techno's biggest labels such as Primate, Intec, Rotation,
Tronic and Soma (where they used a sample from the Dublin underground techno
anthem Visitor - 'Basement Life' on their remix of Slam's classic Stepback
!). Earlier this year the dynamic duo claimed commercial success right
across Europe with their remix of the mighty Vanguard's Queen - sampling
'Flash'. Support on the night come from Power FM's Brendan Gregory who will
making his second Electric City appearance, Brendan recently played the
Bassbin Weekender and is eagerly awaiting the return of Power FM to get his
much-missed Radio Show back on air. Giles Armstrong continues to hog the
electricity limelight with his second appearance in as many weeks!
