Green Velvet & more, Pressure, The Arches, Glasgow, 30 Mar

As one of the longest running nights at The Arches, Pressure continues to reign supreme as the spiritual home of techno music on the Glasgow dance scene. The atmosphere tonight is, as ever, a heady perfume of debauched hedonism - a seething mass of hardcore clubbers gathering for what promises to be a top techno-fest. Old school dance veteran Francois Kevorkian begins with a set that shifts in tone from the dark and alternative to more floor-friendly beats with mixed crowd reaction. Marco Carola is infinitely more impressive: a true connoisseur of minimal techno, he wows the crowd with a mesmerising and energetic performance. Ben Sims' set is cautious in its execution, however, never quite reaching the throbbing rhythms we have come to expect from this exceptional DJ. Chicago legend Green Velvet ends the night on a high, electrifying a heaving main arch with his unique theatrical style, and ending with the (as-ever) highly anticipated rendition of the classic La La Land.
