Having been established in one form or another since back in 2007, Let It Bleed have enjoyed a stellar career in the Scottish clubbing arena, welcoming the likes of Simian Mobile Disco, Annie Mac, Brodinski, Carl Craig, Hot Chip, Foals, Digitalism, Felix Da Housecat, Fake Blood, Bloody Beetroots, DJ Mehdi, Switch and tonnes more to soundtrack nights filled with unparalleled dancefloor delirium.
Let It Bleed returns to Aberdeen in June, with a suitably exciting line up of dance music greats in tow, taking place at some of Aberdeen's finest nightspots. We look at those below.
The tireless promters hit Origin on the 6th, with underground veteran Jesse Rose in the driving seat. Having originally been seduced by dance music in Bristol back in the late nineties, the now The LA based DJ and producer has repeatedly cemented his importance in the forward thinking house community thanks to a slew of scorching releases on labels like Get Physical, Dubsided and most recently Play It Down, where tracks like 'Love The Feeling' show he is still a producer operating at the height of his powers.
His ear for a glitchy, grooving, take on tech driven house remains as distinctive as ever, as can be heard in his effortlessly cool mix for i-D magazine above. Expect to be rocked to your very core by one of house music's most consistently intriguing affiliates. Grab your Jesse Rose tickets here
The 21st sees Let It Bleed head to The Forum, with the garage infused, LA beats flavoured dynamics of Bondax. There really isn't much we need to say about the mighty talents of Lancastrian beatsmiths Adam Kaye and George Townsend - lauded by Radio One and now widely considered to be one of electronic music's hottest properties, the duo have been responsible for plying the discerning mainstream with a devastating array of acerbic beats and abstract bass lines, all encased in a slo mo, soulful aesthetic.
Recent times have seen the two piece delve more directly into a floor focused sound, taking in elements of deep house and disco, showing a depth of understanding well beyond their years. Check out their wildly varied, soul drenched mix for XLR8R above to see what we mean. Get your Bondax tickets here.
