Don't-miss parties this week

Lorenzo Senni @ The White Hotel, 12 May 

All the way from Milan comes rave voyeur Lorenzo Senni with his new live show off the back of his Persona EP for Warp. We've been absolutely rinsing the below mix all week which gives you a taste of Senni's influences: expect pointillistic trance plus four artists from The Death of Rave label: The Automatics Group and Teresa Winter (live sets), and Croww and Joost Jerk (on the decks). It's the kind of night The White Hotel was made for. From 10pm, £9 

Below the Surface w/ Roman Flügel @ Hidden, 12 May 

Hidden kick off two solid nights with always-excellent chameleonic German head Roman Flügel. He'll be playing all night long, so you can expect a real journey. From 11pm, £12.50 

Mumdance all night long @ Hidden, 13 May 

It's another all-night affair at Hidden as Brighton homeboy and Rinse FM favourite Mumdance takes you from start to finish, traversing techno, grime and the bridges of experimentation in between. From 11pm, £10 

Get booking... 

Byron the Aquarius @ Soup Kitchen, 28 May 

Responsible for bringing some of the world's most vibrant underground sounds to Manchester, promoters Banana Hill smash it once again with this booking, welcoming synth wizard Byron the Aquarius for his city debut. Having journeyed through hip-hop and house, working with the likes of Flying Lotus and releasing through Theo Parrish's label, he pushes his own distinct and highly danceable brand of Atlanta-spawned weirdness. Get in there early. From 11pm, £8
