Solescience feat DJ Heather, Cabaret Voltaire, Edinburgh, Oct 13

Solescience have distanced themselves from the handbag house crew by supporting lesser known DJs who bring underground sounds and styles to Cabaret Voltaire. Their good judgement and forward thinking has continually proven that big names are not the be all and end all of a good night out - DJ Heather being the latest in a long line of names to grace their decks and quite literally bring the house down. She arrived for her rescheduled date unscathed and proceeded to play a blinding set, the first hour building spirits high with jacking house, dropping Chicago nuggets right, left and centre. The second hour was louder and faster keeping the dancefloor full right until lights up. Solescience always has a disco atmosphere, a busy dancefloor and a real buzz about it – if you're wondering about this thing called house music, this is where it's at. [Keira Sinclair]
