Hearing Hamburg's Dial posse play on what is arguably one of the best soundsystems on the planet, sounds like a house music lover's dream come true. And to make things even better: Not only will Lawrence preview some tracks off his upcoming Sten LP alongside Carsten Jost. The night will also see live appearances by Academy lecturer Efdemin (to the right, by Yasmin Haddad) and RNDM (as Pigon), and the latest Dial signee John Roberts.

Things are about to get hot and sweaty once again in everyone's favourite Barca backroom, Moog. The shuffling, tweaking techno tones of Krasnodar's Modul crash head-on with the dark, driving designs of Dubai's Deep Blend, a man named after coffee with some equally addictive tracks. It's enough to have you feeling like you are on drugs, even if you're not.
