Samuel Kerridge Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

British producer Samuel Kerridge has been carefully turning techno inside-out for over a decade. Taking a distinctly post-punk approach to the genre, he's become an integral part of Regis's legendary imprint Downwards alongside artists like British Murder Boys, Justin Broadrick and Veronica Vasicka. Kerridge has helped to define the label's contemporary sound: broken techno and snarling punk informed by industrial music and metal. He's released seven EPs and five albums (including a collaboration with Dva Damas's Taylor Burch) and his latest, Kick To Kill, has become something of a statement of intent, blossoming into a new label and event series with a focus that broadens beyond techno tracks into full-blown songwriting. Aside from his solo work, he collaborates with Oake in what he describes as the "power metal techno" duo UF and started his own guitar band, Death Disco, with Maxim "Panda" Barron. He ran the Berlin-based Contort label and party series and curated the legendary Berlin Atonal festival for three years, underlining his credentials as a stalwart figure in the world of experimental, boundary-pushing techno. He's also an accomplished live performer, most recently developing a hybrid live-DJ set that dismantles hundreds of tracks into a sampler to make new music in real time. It's an inventive process that places him in the lineage of groundbreaking techno acts like Richie Hawtin and Jeff Mills, while still carrying the flag for the darkest corners of underground electronic music.
