Elektrons, Ultragroove, Cabaret Voltaire, Edinburgh, TBA

Luke Cowdrey and Justin Crawford are two of Manchester's uniquely electronic sons. As the Unabombers they were residents and promoters of Manchester's infamous Electric Chair and it was here that the duo first cut their musical teeth. They eventually found themselves playing Fabric, Back To Basics, Slam and The Hacienda, and numerous festivals including Homelands, T in the Park, V and Creamfields, as well as DJing across Europe with residencies in both Barcelona and Paris. Their new guise goes by the name of the Elektrons; word play on the eclectic range of material they incorporate. While the Unabombers' sound was rooted in the old school underground basement, the Elektrons' music places eclectic compilations at the fore. In this audio melting pot expect to hear some of the finest contemporary sounds - from the grime MCs of London to the soulful sounds of Sheffield with some futuristic disco thrown in for good measure. The Elektrons are upbeat, they are down and they are most certainly dirty. Support comes from the Ultragroove residents. [Franck Martin]
