First up, we have the awesome Ross Alexander - who we've caught at various nights around the NW and have always been blown away by. We've got a belting live set from the man himself for the first hour :)
"Ross’ music is a melting pot of many influences. Utilising drum machines and groove boxes, Ross has found the sweet spot between Detroit/European techno and electro. With Ross, “being a fan of machines”, you can also expect prominent bass, breaks and bleeps."

Next, taking us through the second hour of the show we've got the brilliant Samantha Togni
"Samantha Togni, an internationally-renowned DJ, producer and mixing engineer. Not only has she played headline sets in super-clubs from Tokyo to America, Togni has also built a really strong reputation with her productions in the Electronic Music scene.
The last few years in particular have seen the rising star land coveted support slots for the likes of Miss Kittin and Sinjin Hawke. Togni has also shared stages with everyone from UMEK, Magda, Camelphat, Boris, always experimenting with and adapting her sound to electrify any audience. This unique soundscape was written across 2016 single ‘Queen Nemesis’, a frantic, uptempo track featuring rapid-fire raps from London MC Janset. The track quickly racked up support from Adidas Originals, which playlisted the song in its stores, as well as press outlets including Dazed Korea, The 405, Red Bull and Wonderland, who described Togni as the DJ to watch.
Togni is also a core member of INFERNO, a London-based club collective renowned for fusing club culture, performance art and techno which caught the attention of Dazed and I-D. They hold a residency at The Yard where she is also a resident DJ.

Although she has numerous gigs lined up at Destino Ibiza, Paris, EGG London and Five Miles (where she currently has a monthly residency), Elektrowerkz, Los Angeles (Globe Theatre and Soft Leather) and in the Island of Mustique, Togni has been focusing her time in the studio.

And rounding out the show we've got the brilliant SH13 (the industrial alter-ego of Sted Hellvis, purveyor of breakneck acid techno). Also playing at Nexus #11 (busy night!), could there be an announcement on the cards? ;)
"The evil dark techno / industrial pseudonym of Sted Hellvis (dirty warehouse / squat techno); equally tough in outlook and attitude, SH13 is the outlet for the mayhem pitching in around 135-140bpm."
