Surgeon [Counterbalance / British Murder Boys - UK]

Admission - e12 / e10 members

Hello,

Surgeon makes his Electric City debut at Traffic this Thursday for what will
be a two and half hour set killer set of techno from one of the most
progressive artists around. As well as being a British Murder Boy (alongside
Regis), Surgeon is one of the most dynamic DJs and producers around whilst
still finding time to run his peerless Counterbalance and Downwards record
labels. For his latest DJ mix check out http://www.dj-surgeon.com/audio.html

Since exploding onto the techno scene in 1995 with the now classic 'Surgeon
EP', DJ and producer Anthony Child has been remolding his area of
contemporary techno. His early releases on Downwards caused a ripple of
excitement through the techno cognoscenti of the time, leading to more
widespread exposure. Further output on Downwards, such as the 'Pet 2000 EP',
along with releases by label mates Regis, Female and Portion Reform, helped
to place Birmingham boldly on the techno map. Surgeon soon launched his own
labels Dynamic Tension and later Counterbalance, where he has carved out his
unique sound and experiments with his diverse influences of industrial
music.

His debut LP 'Basic Tonal Vocabulary' was released on Tresor Records in 1997
and followed by 'Balance' (1998) and 'Force and Form' in 1999. More recent
solo productions have included 'Midnight Club Trax' and 'La Real' released
on his own imprint Counterbalance.

Under the title of "British Murder Boys" Surgeon and Regis have adventured
deeper into their industrial influences with 12 inches both on
Counterbalance and Downwards including 'Don't Give Way to Fear' 'Learn your
Lesson' 'Fist/Splinter' 'Father Loves Us' 'All The Saints Have Been Hung'
and remixes for Alexander Kowalski's 'Emtec' and A Guy Called Gerald's
classic 'Blow Your House Down'.

Support comes from one of Ireland's true techno supporters, Jon Hussey. Jon
has been spinning since the early days of techno in Ireland through
organising seminal clubs such as Planet Dub right up to appearances
alongside Inigo Kennedy this summer. As usual, Jon will be setting things up
with a faultless warm-up set this night.
