FRIDAY 11TH APRIL // MIXTAPE PRESENTS ALEX METRIC (MARINE PARADE) // 10PM – 3AM / £5ADV





Size matters, and by any standard of measurement, Alex Metric's talent is large, as made clear by the release of his debut artist ep Whatshewants. At just 26 years of age, Marine Parade's newest signing has made a big splash as both DJ and producer. He's played gigs spanning the globe from Fabric in London to Eastern European festivals to Los Angeles clubs, and developed a significant rep for his work in the studio assisting superstars ranging from Adam Freeland to Darren Emerson. Nominated as breakthrough producer at the 2006 Breakspoll awards, Metric's also getting buzz for his own production work. DJs across the board have begun to sit up and take notice of his productions on a wide range of esteemed imprints, including Underwater, Fourtwenty, Lot49 and now Marine Parade, with support from the likes of Adam Freeland, James Holden, Laurent Garnier, Pete Tong, Meat Katie, James Zabiela and M.A.N.D.Y. Of late, Metric's completed official remixes for the likes of GusGus, Black Daniel, Sharam Jey, and Jape. Metric's productions are assured, drawing on a range of influences resulting in stark electro, indie rock, house and snares. Inspired by everything from Jacques Le Cont and Daft Punk to his obsession with bad 80's records and krautrock rhythms, Metric chops up the beats and vocals here like if he were Prince signed to Ed Banger.
