Hint, We Are Electric, Cabaret Voltaire, Edinburgh, 20 Feb

The first date of their joint Scottish tour sees Hint (Ninja Tune, Tru Thoughts) and Boom Monk Ben (Mixed Bizness, Solid Steel) touch down for what will be an unmissable night. Labelled as one of the brightest UK talents working today, Hint's musical career took off in 2002 when a John Peel session and an appearance at The Big Chill boosted his profile. Recently his sound has become more dancefloor friendly, and by playing a mixture of hip hop, house, jungle, dancehall, grime, electro, and breakbeat he will not disappoint. Joining Hint is Glasgow favourite Boom Monk Ben, known for his diverse mix of banging tunes, a capella blends and three-deck mixing. Renowned for selecting the dirtiest underground tunes, incorporating heavy funk, disco, jazz and soul, if you've never seem him in action before you'd be mad to miss this Edinburgh date. Do whatever you gotta do to see this rare Ninja Tune experience. [Karen Taggart]
