After the sell-out March event earlier this year, Nicolas Jaar returns to London for two exclusive dates to close the summer alongside his original Wolf + Lamb family members and newest signing, Valentin Stip.
Since releasing his critically acclaimed debut artist album in February 2011, Nicolas Jaar has become an underground phenomenon and cult hero, with his intelligent and measured approach to production a revelation on today’s often tightly formatted and linear approach to electronic music.
A new band format for his live shows was introduced this year and following appearances at festivals such as Glastonbury and Sonar, this will be the only chance to catch him performing in London for the year. These exclusive two mid week dates from London Electronic utilize London’s most infamous nightlife venue in a new mid week format showcasing its world-class soundsystem and bringing electronic music into a new live setting.
One of Jaar’s most recent signings to his Clown & Sunset label is Valentin Stip who will also be gracing us on both nights with his debut live set in the UK whilst on a break from his studies at the eminent Brown University alongside Nicolas Jaar. Stip’s debut EP Anytime Will Do is just about to drop on the label, and is as atmospheric and evocatively brilliant as you would except from a protégé of Jaar.
One half of the illustrious Wolf + Lamb duo Gadi Mizrahi also joins on both evenings, while Thursday night show sees the extra addition of the notorious Soul Clap.
Both nights look set to further establish Jaar as one of the most exciting talents in electronic music today and come highly recommend.
Tickets are available now from Resident Advisor.
Vlantin Stip’s Anytime Will Do is out 4th July on Clown & Sunset
