Retro/Grade @ Sub Club, 6 Aug
What to do after dropping one of the best tracks of last year? Bugger off, work on a debut album and create a live spectacle the likes of which have never been seen, obviously
Two causes for celebration on the 6th after the Rizla Riverboat Shuffle reaches dry land. First of all, Retro/Grade make their Scottish debut in the Sub Club alongside sets by Optimo and Melting Pot. Secondly, this will be the perfect opportunity to catch a preview of their forthcoming material from their yet to be released debut album Motion, due out next year.
Retro/Grade are the modern day italo disco duo Serge Santiago and Tom Neville who released their debut track Moda on a highly limited A-side single last year. In spite of only 500 copies being released the single received acclaim from both the press and fellow artists and the 12' worked its way into the record bags of the likes of Erol Alkan, Simian Mobile Disco, Annie Mac and Brodinski. Consider this evening utterly unmissable.
