London’s longstanding promoter brothers Danny & Kieran (Krankbrother) have pulled out something fresh for their first open air affair of the year. Famed for combining exceptional musical programming with London’s most unique and unusual spaces, their outdoor summer parties have become legendary across the capital.
This Saturday’s day party is taking place on the banks of the River Lea in Hackney, however as the name suggests the dancefloor is situated underneath a striking industrial bridge giving the event a unique setting of urban architecture meets natural beauty. The site has been specifically chosen not just for its aesthetics but also to counter the all too familiar issues that London open air parties face in stringent noise restrictions and a lack of space. Under the Bridge’s location provides an opportunity to push to the upper limits of proper sound & far out production, whilst also having enough space to accommodate boutique food vans, craft beer & cocktail bars.
Minimal aficionado and esteemed Fabric resident Craig Richard heads the bill, alongside Giegling's Konstantin, Ostgut heavyweight Marcel Fengler and infamous punk acid live act Paranoid London. It’s an original space, played by some of techno’s finest connoisseurs, with unique production and even an official Fabric after party to top it all off, this is one Saturday session you certainly shouldn’t sleep on.
