Gut Level
32-34 Chapel Walk, Sheffield City Centre, Sheffield S1 2PD, UK
The maverick psychedelic ritual-trance maestro comes to Gut.
Every now and again we get the chance to stick our neck out and tick a dream booking off the bucket list. This is one of those moments…
Shackleton (Live)
We first encountered Shackleton’s music in our hazy teenage years, where his foundational contributions to Dubstep, slippery sine basslines and sparse, winding percussion left a deep imprint on our supple, skunk addled minds. Nights spent in Leeds’ West Indian Centre, reeling in a stupefied disbelief at the sheer crushing weight of those Skull Disco classics were a formative introduction to uncompromising, heavy and experimental edges of dance music.
Since then, Shackleton’s output has taken various twists and turns, often maximal, always psychedelic, at times leaning into prog, folk, and drone influences, all the while remaining unmistakably his own.
This year, he released “Euphoria Bound”, which for our money is his most direct, confronting and highly danceable offering in years. It felt like the perfect time to invite him to Sheffield to present an hour of mind bending, leg wobbling, arm flailing music to loose our minds to.
Support on the night comes from…
Cellar Dweller (STI)
Stalwart of the Sheffield Scene, who’s made magic happen in this city as a foundational member of Sheffield Techno Institute. Many core musical memories have been forged thanks to this crew - Shed at Fez Club, Objekt in the old Co-op, DJ Skirt at Club 60 (what a blinder!).
Ben has his finger firmly in the wormhole. With all manner of bleepers, loopers and trippers to deploy either end of Shacks offering.
