Filthy Dukes - Fabriclive48

Review by Gideon Brody

The thing with Fabriclive48 specifically is, it can't decide if it wants to crossover into indie-friendly territory – as the likes of Filthy Dukes (in their normal guise) and Fuck Buttons do – or whether it's an outright club or house record (club as in club, house as in music, you understand). Regular clubbers will love the midsection, which seamlessly conjoins the summer's best techno and tech-house tracks and builds an authentic Friday night, 2am momentum. »

filthy dukes have been showing their worth since the early days of their club night 'kill em' all' in camden. trying and it has to be said successfully spreading their love of the electroclash sound through the indie soundscape that was camden during the early 2000's. years on and having been asked to host their night at the mecca of london clubbing, fabric; they have hosted a list of acts which reads like the who's who of electronic music of the last 5 years: justice, erol alkan, chemical brothers, boys noize, cut copy, digitalism, zombie nation, james murphy and the list continues. and in their latest mix, the newest entry into the fabric live collection, the lads have tried to portray an evening at one of their riotous nights. genre transcending, unconfined, previously culture splitting sounds all acutely mixed. it features tracks by the likes of whomadewho, sparks, mujava, joakim, aphex twin, daft punk, lifelike and 80kidz etc.
