How do you like your electro? We like it
jaw curling
teeth grinding
synapse snapping
neuron twisting
pneumatic drilling
soul filling
...with
a side order of disco.
We
live for the night, spending our time selflessly trawling Europe’s
best clubs and seediest dens of electro-vice, returning to Glasgow
with our newfound friends - the most innovative, exciting DJs
in the scene - and persuaded them to play for your pleasure.
On
the third Saturday of every month, the colour and life of the
continent's after hours spirit is captured within the grimy bricks
of the Arches, Glasgow's most notoriously debauched club, as a
mixed bag of make-up smeared pleasure-seekers and electronic hedonists
come together to feed their habit.
For
the past nine years, Death Disco has throbbed at the forefront
of electro-disco in all its forms. Riding the wave from 2manydjs
and the electroclash rash to the supreme reign of Justice and
the Ed Bangers, through to the anarchic noise of Bloody Beetroots
and Crookers and the retro-balaeric lushness of Aeroplane and
Joakim, our dual mission is to stroke the ego of the biggest and
best and let them trample all over our turntables (hello, Erol),
whilst keeping one eye on seeking out the niggling trends and
giving them the exposure they deserve. Electro pop, fidget house,
nu-disco, balaeric, italo: We welcome it all.
As
a result, Death Disco has grown to become Scotland's biggest electro
club. But that was purely incidental. As we said, we live for
the night. And, it seems, so do you.
