Um membro da família Minus n’ “O Baile” em Londres

“O Baile” will be returning to London’s Islington Metal Works on the 2nd of July with a stellar lineup. First up will be two projects from Portugal who have been making waves outside of their native country. First up are :papercutz, a young band from Oporto whose unique blend of acoustic instruments and electronic textures have seen them gain widespread critical praise, win an award at London’s People’s Choice Awards, another at the Internationl Songwriting Contest and play at the SXSW festival. Next up, Lisbon’s master dubstep duo Octa Push whose sun-drenched urban sound has seen them gain the respect of such major artists as Thom Yorke and Buraka Som Sistema and play at festivals such as Sonar and Glade, they are also one of the few portuguese acts to play at London’s legendary fabric. Rounding out the lineup will be Minus artist Matthew Hawtin. The visual artist (and younger brother of dance music maestro Richie Hawtin) is known for his unique and subtle blend of ambiance and big room beats. With a lineup of this calibre, the upcoming edition of “O Baile” at Islington Metal Works on the 2nd of July, will be a truly unmissable event.

Como é já sabido, no dia 2 de Julho, “O Baile” regressa a Londres com actuações de dois projectos que já estão a dar que falar fora de Portugal. :papercutz que são uma banda com origem no Porto e cujo som, marcado pela utilização de instrumentos mais tradicionais misturado com texturas electrónicas, tem feito as delícias da crítica estrangeira com um prémio no People’s Choice Award em Londres e outro no International Songwriting Competition e os irmãos Octa Push . A dupla sobe para a cabine da Islington Metal Works para mostrar mais uma vez porque é que têm feito tanto furor no underground europeu.
Agora, a juntar-se a estes dois nomes, Madame e Lumin decidiram fechar o cartaz do próximo “Baile” com um nome internacional - Matthew Hawtin, da familia Minus ( de sangue  - irmão de Richie Hawtin – e profissionalmente) foi convidado para encerrar esta edição especial d’ “O Baile“.
Matthew é um visual artist cujos Dj sets fazem a ponte entre o som mais “ambient” e as batidas mais ritmadas, para as grandes pistas.
