Funk D'Void @ Mixtape, 9 Oct

Soma's Funk D'Void delivers his own brand of deep house and techno to Snafu this month

Aberdeen club Snafu has a strangely diverse roster of club nights. What seems like the clubbing equivalent of a multi-purpose retail-park branch of Asda manages to retain its credibility, however, in two ways: its 350 capacity means it's forced to remain "intimate" (surely the clubbing scene's word of choice at the moment); and Friday night fixture Mixtape continuously pulls in guests worthy of the most super superclubs - Green Velvet, Vitalic and Erol Alkan alternate with niche sounds from across the electro-tech spectrum, with an emphasis on booking DJs from around the world.

This month they're not moving far: Soma's Funk D'Void specialises in the brand of solid deep house and techno which still characterises Glasgow. With the kind of muscley expertise that gives any technical DJ a shiver of excitement, D'Void carefully manipulates his dancefloor, taking it up and bringing it down with impressive ease.
