Thirty hours without a break: London’s fabric marks 27 years and has already named names
The programme starts on Friday 16 October and does not stop until Monday.
London club fabric has announced the first names for its 27th birthday. The marathon has become a tradition for the Farringdon venue: 30 hours of continuous programming from fabric and FABRICLIVE, running from Friday 16 October to Monday the 19th.
Mixmag reported the line-up.
Who is playing
Friday opens with FABRICLIVE, the club’s bass-angled party, featuring Osmosis Jones, Beatrice M., Oneman, Girls Don’t Sync, Klose One, Smokey Bubblin’ B, Tiffany Quinn, Mantra and many more.
The main 23-hour party begins on Saturday, with familiar faces returning: Craig Richards, Ricardo Villalobos, Francesco Del Garda, Jane Fitz, Harry McCanna, Ivan Smagghe and Anna Wall.
What kind of club this is
fabric opened on 29 October 1999 on Charterhouse Street in Farringdon, opposite Smithfield Market, in the converted Metropolitan Cold Stores. It has three rooms with independent sound systems, two of them with stages for live performance.
Room One’s signature is its bodysonic dancefloor: sections of the floor are attached to 400 bass transducers that send the music’s low frequencies straight into the body. From 2001 the club ran two compilation series — fabric and FABRICLIVE — alternating monthly, and both parties of the anniversary weekend carry those names.
There was a moment when it almost ended: on 7 September 2016 the council revoked the licence after two drug-related deaths. On 21 November that year the sides agreed on a return with tighter controls at the door, and in 2017 fabric opened again.
They are joined by DJ Masda, DJ Nobu, Gabrielle Kwarteng, Freddy K, PARAMIDA, Sama’ Abdulhadi, Tapefeed, Vlada and Zip.
