After the epic sell-out shenanigans of Listed’s last outing on Easter Sunday, the organizers have endeavoured to follow up that indisputable success by securing some of the leading lights of the underground to headline proceedings at Fire on June 8th.

First and foremost we have International Deejay Gigolo Records head honcho, DJ Hell. A true pioneer since bursting onto the scene with his renowned 80’s revival sound, which later kick started the electroclash movement. His unique take on underground techno, combined with a sideways pop sensibility, lead to a reputation as something of a maverick, an electro punk. His non conformist record label attracted the likes of Fischerspooner, The Hacker, Miss Kittin, Jeff Mills, Dopplereffekt, and Vitalic.

One of the true pioneers of German house and techno, DJ Hell continues to be in the best form of his life, showing no signs of losing his forward thinking approach. His set at Listed will showcase his years of experience and wealth of talent, combining flavours from right across the underground dance music spectrum into one delicious whole.

He will be joined by Dutch techno figurehead Lauhaus. Now in his 10th year of activity, the producer and DJ has been one of the few true innovators to come from the Netherlands. Responsible for a whole series of hot releases, both solo and as part of the 661 collective, Lauhaus is certainly a producer on the move, and one well worth keeping an eye on.

The American soulful, hypnotic house producer Urulu will also be getting in on the action, as will Cocoon favourites and minimalist spearheaders Deepgroove. Sets from Hannah Wild, Sinuous, Latona, Coded Rhythm DJs and Christopher will round off what is shaping up to be an epic night.

With a very special guest soon to be announced as well, anticipation is reaching ridiculous levels as the latest installment of Listed draws closer.
