LATEST NEWS>>>Mylo, Jeff Mills, DJ Format, Vitalic (Live) Whitey (Live) Four Tet (Live) James Lavelle & Trevor Jackson all confirm for TDK Cross Central........
--------------Eclecticism is a word bandied around music events far too regularly these days but TDK can hold their heads high, certain in the knowledge that Cross Central has one of the most forward thinking and varied selection of performers in the country.
With less than three months to go, TDK continue to add to their groundbreaking and stunning line up with more world class acts and cutting edge performers. Having confirmed that the Saturday headline act will be none other than pop alchemists Goldfrapp, TDK are delighted to announce more indisputable talents in Mylo, Jeff Mills, DJ Format, Vitalic (Live) Four Tet (Live) Whitey (Live) James Lavelle and Trevor Jackson.
As if you didn’t already have a reason to go, these additions prove yet again that TDK are investing in talent old and new. First up, the somewhat ubiquitous Mylo has confirmed his attendance having earned it with his unprecedented and overwhelming success in 2005. With a sound characterised by sophisticated electro stabs, classy breaks and fat bottomed bass lines it is remarkable to learn that most of Mylo's production tools are computer internal. His music is rich, varied and well balanced and sounds as if it has had an army of engineers assisting him. Mylo will headline the XFM Stage on Sunday alongside Tiefschwarz, Glimmer Twins, Vitalic (Live) Mocky (Live) XLover (Live) and host James Hyman from XFM.
We are also shout-aloud proud to announce that Detroit born, Jeff Mills will be playing an exclusive and rare 4hr set in the intimate surroundings of The Cross. Not many DJs can boast such pedigree but Mills, after leaving Underground Resistance and establishing his own label, AXIS in Chicago, is a legend among a generation of dance fans.
As one of the most talented and popular DJs in world, Mills is known for playing 30 to 50 disks within an hour - truly a unique DJ style. The theory behind it being that he tries his best to get the cream of every record and only play the part he feels are the best of each tune. You can catch Jeff Mills on the Sunday (28th August) in the legendary venue The Cross.
Pushing forward in 2005 further additions to the line-up are...... Mylo, Jeff Mills, DJ Format Feat: Abdominal & D-Sisve, Vitalic (Live) Whitey (Live) Four Tet (Live) Dungen (Live) Metric (Live) Mad Professor (Live) Stars (Live) James Lavelle, Steve Bug, Trevor Jackson, D'Julz, Rainer Trüby, Gliss, Dub Cartel Feat: Don Letts & Dan Donavan, Little Barrie, First Rate & Koobs, Kiki, Diplo, Brooks, Filthy Dukes, Temposhark (Live) The Loose Cannons and Simon Rigg and Heidi (Phonica Records)
