Screwloose, The Arches, Glasgow, 24 Aug

The Arches has become a magnet for club promoters and clubbers alike, havining been hailed by DJ Mag as the 12th best club in the world. The challenge is to find a new distinctive niche, and one night stepping up to the plate is Screwloose, pitching us a blend of dark electro with techno flaours, promising a driving, dancing, experience. Sounds fair enough but we've been more intriuged by their stated aim to draw bodies from a number of different social scenes and backgrounds to provide a fresh clubbing climate. The promoters are making good on their promise by booking Boyz Noise artists D.I.M. and Shadow Dancer (live). Both are making their Glasgow debut, with D.I.M. celebrating the recent release of his Airbus Baby EP, while Shadow Dancer eagerly await the release of their EP. Topping the bill will be Soma DJ Hystereo, buoyed by his recent success at Global Gathering. This will be something for the dark of heart and the light of foot. [Peter Burns]
