Ed's reliably tweaked style makes sure he has tunes in most electro record bags, even in today's shrinking vinyl market

Scrabble are once again bringing some of techno's sweatiest and sexiest together for a bang. You can't fault the assault for slackness; this team's soundsystem and their sensibilities both go up to eleven with ease. In addition to the usual party power of the Scrabble residents – Dom D'Sylva and Decknition - this time we are being given Ed Chamberlain. Chamberlain is great at rumbling, rolling electro glitch: one half of his Fixxy EP on Base Logic has recently been re-pressed for an eager buying public, and his sales show no signs of stopping now. Ed's reliably tweaked style makes sure he has tunes in most electro record bags, even in today's shrinking vinyl market. If you haven't seen him or a Scrabble party yet, The Skinny recommends you get your techno-head and your trainers on and go dance. [James Blake]
