Huntleys and Palmers is showing an incontestable desire to be in it for the long haul with continuing triumphs. April sees it come back once more but this time in the fresh setting of Stereo, where they welcome the 'Neo Kraut' sounds of Musiccargo and the genius of Joakim. Musiccargo sum up the sound of Düsseldorf and follow in the footsteps of previous prodigies such as the awesome Kraftwerk. The duo are a combination of DJ Gordon Pohl and guitarist and vocalist Gerhard Michel and the outcome from this friction has been quality tunes with techno, electro, rock and plenty of Germanic clout thrown in. Joakim, meanwhile, will be familiar to most with his abundant remix work such as Cut Copy's Hearts on Fire. He also runs the remarkable Tiger Sushi label which has released for the likes of Poni Hoax, Panico and Ivan Smagghe. This night is growing amazingly, as the rising profile of guests shows, so get to it in its infancy and you'll be delighted you did. [Sean McNamara]
