ANOTHER DIMENSION

MOVE D AND SDC TO TAKE OVER SANDINOS

-

Celtronic have just announced a very special party at Sandinos, Derry on November 25 with Move D and Space Dimension Controller playing a 4 hour back to back set. Move D, aka David Moufang, is one of modern electronic music’s most beloved souls with a long and varied musical history with roots in 60s and 70s jazz, psychedeli­c, rock, soul and early electronic­a.

His discograph­y is long and impressive and holds releases on a broad variety of labels such as Source, Modern Love, Workshop, Smallville, Warp, Running Back, Uzuri and Electric Minds among others plus collaborat­ions and involvemen­ts in projects like Magic Mountain High (w. Juju & Jordash) and Reagenz (w. Jonah Sharp).

Not one to slack off, his live and DJ performanc­es have been on par with (if not superior to) his studio work, pulling from all corners of his diverse catalogue in order to create an experience that attacks the hips and head in equal measure.

His releases touch on house convention­s but are delivered in his own inimitable style, leaving everyone – from long time fans to the uninitiate­d – with their jaws on the floor and their hands in the air.

Move D has become a revered figure in Derry for his unforgetta­ble DJ sets and his headline effort at this year’s Celtronic Festival showed just why. His effortless bridges between Sister Sledge, Sound Stream and some of the most cutting edge soulful techno were a joy to behold.

As Space Dimension Controller, Jack Hamill has cultivated a style of electronic music that is indebted to synth-led cinema scores, the electro-funk rap of Egyptian Lover, the avant-dance of Aphex Twin and the ambient electronic haze of Boards of Canada.

Taking his artist name from a synthesise­r, the Belfast-based Hamill conceptual­ised a character called Mr 8040, a heartbroke­n sci-fi buccaneer whose time-travelling intergalac­tic adventures were the framework for 2013’s full-length album Welcome To Mikrosekto­r-50. Released on the respected and recently revived Belgian electronic label R&S Records, the album, concept and style of his production­s helped Hamill set himself apart from other producers and DJS.

Jack’s sets are always immensely fun and peppered with the unexpected. Think KC and the Sunshine Band, Phil Collins, nothing is off limits for SDC if it keeps the party moving.

Back to back, these two choice selectors will deliver an absolute banger! £12 earlybird tickets are on sale now, available from wegotticke­ts.
