    Default Edinburgh techno takes a kick in the balls, Venue to close..

    As some off you maybe aware one of edinburghs top live venues "the venue"
    will be closing its doors for good this summer making way
    for brand spankin new office's, as if edinburgh hasnt
    got enough already....anyway this spells bad news for
    many a good night held @ the Venue including ourselfs "JakN",
    with decent alternatives being few and far between, leaving
    us pritty much homeless untill a spot becomes available
    in another suitable venue, this could take a while seeing
    as the places we want are fully booked out for the year....i cant
    express enough how much of a CUNT this is as we feel we
    where starting to make a big noise in edinburgh...all good
    things must come to an end i suppose???

    With summer just round the corner we'll be making good
    use of the great out doors and keeping the noise going
    thro out....so if you want to be kept in the loop of wot we
    plan on doing please subscribe to our mailing list info@diversefrequencies.co.uk

    By the winter months we should have a better idea of where
    the clubs going etc so keep your ears to the ground....!!!

    I'd also like to take this oppertunity and thank all who have
    supported us over the last 2.5 years and give a MASSIVE
    shout out to all who have kept it real and agreed to rock
    our lil ol night....JAKN

    Sad news.
    Jack-N was not only a good techno night, but it had raw, underground edginess lacking in a lot of techno clubs.
    And it was propper hammer and tongues having it.
    I hope to see the Jak-N boys back in a venue.
    Good luck lads.
    Solitary by nature.
    Isolation is the gift.
    Does anyone have courage to stand apart any more?

    Yeah, sorry to see this lads. You had a good vibe going with it, it looked 'proper' that's for sure. Best of luck finding a new place...
