This set promises nothing less than riotous techno and scintillating electro that you'd be foolish to miss

It's always around the beginning of February that all our new year's resolutions completely go to pot. Fags are relit, bills unpaid and good intentions of quiet nights-in morph into five-day benders. And just in case you needed another excuse to break them, the lovely folks at Edinburgh's We Are Electric are about to give you one. This month they have the main man, Andrew Weatherall. A man with a list of credentials almost as long as his quarter-century spanning career, during which he's released tunes as both Sabres of Paradise and Two Lone Swordsmen. When he finally got around to releasing his first full solo effort, The Bullet Catcher's Apprentice in 2006, nobody was surprised to find the same cracking house anthems he'd played a part in creating for years. This set promises nothing less than riotous techno and scintillating electro that you'd be foolish to miss. [Emma Kilday]
