Time Out resident djs ‘The Beat’ present Defunkt, a new night of forward thinking electronic music charting the path from the adventures in stereo of Silver Apples and the BBC Radiophonic Workshop through musical pioneers such as Manuel Göttsching, Giorgio Moroder, Bobby Orlando, Patrick Cowley, Blake Baxter, Lenny Dee, Carl Craig and Antony ‘Shake’ Shakir to the more recent sounds of Warp, DFA and Border Community.

We’ll be playing sixties exotica, krautrock, post-punk funk, disco, italo, proto-house and past, present and future electronic.

Top djs and DFA contributors Justin Miller and Jacques Renault have just done a scintillating new mix for FACT magazine.

It’s their usual style of laid back, re-edited disco and offers the first chance to hear new and as yet unreleased DFA material from the likes of Black Meteoric Star and Plastique du Reve.
