Edinburgh Clubbing Highlights: 29 July - 2 August

Tweak_July16 Part 2: Fort Romeau @ Cabaret Voltaire, Sat 30 Jul

This weekend Cabaret Voltaire plays host to one of the most intriguing post-millennial house acts around, with London-based producer Mike Greene, aka Fort Romeau, spinning up a blend of classic Chicago beats and lush, modern, deep-house grooves. As well as playing keyboard in La Roux’s touring band, the enigmatic Greene developed Fort Romeau as a DIY project, using an old laptop and vintage Yamaha synthesizer. Also in the building will be Izzy Demky, Gareth Sommerville and Simon Bays.

Karnival feat. Hot Chip (DJ set) @ La Belle Angele, Sat 30 Jul

Going strong for 16 years, with seven studio albums, four Grammy nominations and a Mercury prize nomination to their name, Hot Chip have also had a prolific stint soundtracking thousands of parties, club nights and festivals with their infectious, left-field take on electronic music. The band hit the capital this weekend for an exclusive DJ set at La Belle.

Perc @ The Mash House, Sat 30 Jul

On the same night, the London-based Perc (real name Ali Wells) will be spinning up a techno storm at The Mash House, flanked by Darrell Harding and local resident Sean Laird. Wells has clocked up sets at seminal clubs across Europe, including Berghain, Fabric, Space Ibiza, and Tresor, and is rightfully considered one of today’s most respected techno producers – catch him while you can.

Coming Up...

We're only at the tail end of July, but Fatima Yamaha's reputation is such that tickets for his September Sub Club date have all but sold out, so move quick if you want to bear witness to the Netherlands-native Bas Bron at the beginning of his Imaginary Lines tour. You'll know him from that track - "What's A Girl To Do", the Lost In Translation-sampling, melancholy 2004 hit reissued on Dekmantel last year to further acclaim (21 September).
