New World Punx aka Markus Schulz & Ferry Corsten comes to SW4

Two undisputed electronic heavyweights. Two titans of trance. One unstoppable force. South West Four is pleased to announce that on Saturday 23rd August, Markus Schulz and Ferry Corsten will arrive in London to showcase their new project New World Punx for the very first time. After starting out as just a few spontaneous back to back DJ sets in 2012 it became clear that this was a partnership that could inevitably take on the world as one. Both globally celebrated in their own right thanks to individual careers spanning over twenty years, New World Punx demonstrate remarkable levels of chemistrythrough scintillating performances. Deriving from Schulz’s hit ‘The New World’ and Corsten’s anthem ‘Punk’, New World Punx push a bass-driven sound that promises to shake Clapham Common to its core. Having marked their territory with unforgettable appearances at ASOT 600 (Madison Square Garden NYC), ASOT 650 (Netherlands) and Ultra Miami 2014, their first ever performance in the Capital promises to become one of this year’s most cherished moments.

Cosmic Gate are the perfect union of musical minds. Over the past ten years, Nic Chagall and Bossi have evolved into one of the most creative and highly-sought-after electronic acts in the world. With the world of trance unfolding into various different pockets of sound, Cosmic Gate have remained true to their roots and catapulted themselves to the forefront of euphoric sounds. Their cosmological productions go hand in hand with their atomic on-stage synergy to create one of the most powerful partnerships of today. Feeding off each other’s endless energy and turntable wizardry, the German duo have established themselves as a firm favourite within trance’s global community. They played a pivotal part in Armin van Buuren’s ASOT residency at Privilege Ibiza last summer with five standout performances alongside the launch of their brand new residency in Las Vegas. With a mouth-watering SW4 debut to look forward to, Cosmic Gate’s most recent London performance at The Gallery earlier this year saw them rock the Ministry of Sound through to the early hours. With demand already crying out for their return, this emotive performance promises to seduce the senses into a heavenly abyss.  

Boasting an unrivalled level of telepathic musical chemistry, Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano have firmly established themselves as one of the hottest duos in electronic music. Their insatiable appetite for success and ability to deliver electrifying sets has led them to a brand new summer residency atAmnesia Ibiza for 2014. Last season, their chunky house-based grooves were amongst the most popular on the island via their Sexy By Nature residency at Boom Ibiza, in addition to outstanding performances at SW4’s Tenth Anniversary, Ultra, Tomorrowland, Electric Daisy Carnival, BPM, and theAmsterdam Dance Event (ADE). Following this their efforts were rewarded with a high profile residency at Las Vegas’ Hakkasan, a headline show at The Heineken Music Hall, as well as a BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix earlier this year. Besides their carnival-like performances, the key to their success is theiroutstanding productions which will once again bring sunshine to our beloved Clapham Common. 

At just 18 years of age, Danny Avila has become one of the hottest new acts in dance music. From winning ‘Best Newcomer DJ’ at the prestigious Vicious Music Awards aged only 16, through to touring the world last year, Avila has risen through the electronic music ranks based on his searing ability to demolish the world’s most prestigious dance floors. His production talents have seen him gain heavy support from Hardwell, Tiesto, Avicii and Nicky Romero, with releases on the likes of Interscope Records, Big Beat Records, Spinnin’ and Musical Freedom. Having supported Tiesto at a sold out Earl’s Court last December, in addition to several standout performances at Ministry of Sound, Danny’s relationship with the Capital is already an inseparable one. This will be evident in force when he arrives at South West Four on Saturday 23rd August.

Another act making his SW4 debut in 2014 is German producer Jerome Isma-Ae. A firm favourite at The Gallery (Ministry of Sound) after stunning crowds with his dark and broody beats in recent months, Jerome has become renowned worldwide for combing key elements of trance and techno withexquisite drum patterns. As a producer of unique and distinguished basslines, Jerome has become of the best-selling and most in-demand progressive house acts on the planet. His beautiful back-catalogue varies from subtle crafted layers of instantly recognisable beats to peak-time dancefloor sensations.  As an act that has embedded his signature sound whilst constantly adapting at the same time, Isma-Ae draws influence from as far as rock, metal, classical and drum & bass, making him one of this year’s most interesting debutants.

Eats Everything confirmed for SW4 Sunday

Since 2011 Bristolian Daniel Pearce aka Eats Everything has stood at the forefront of a new genre of forward-thinking underground music. His debut track fittingly titled ‘Entrance Song’ shook the electronic world from its very foundations, whilst his next two bass-laden house jams‘The Size’ and ‘Tric Trac’were picked up by Claude Von Stroke for his flagship Dirtybird label. From here the rest, as they say, is history.

Fast forward to 2014 and there is not a more in demand DJ in British house music. His XOYO residency fully illustrated this, with around-the-block queues and guests of the calibre of Disclosure, Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs and Catz ‘N’ Dogz falling over themselves to be a part of the fun. This high profile residency resulted in interest from all London festivals but we are delighted to announce that Eats has chosen South West Four for his only London festival performance this summer. Taking control of one of our mammoth indoor arenasEats Everything will bring Edible to Clapham Common for thevery first time. He will be joined by an outstanding selection of handpicked guests as Edible consolidates the many different facets of his buoyant personality and eclectic taste in music.

This summer will witness Eats continue to gobble his way across club land with the momentum of a runaway freight train. A residency for Together at Amnesia Ibiza is another example of the excitement surrounding the big man and how this year will witness his status reach even loftier heights. However it isSW4 that will provide the main course for his 2014 movements and which will welcome ‘Eaters’ from far and wide for this pinnacle moment in his career so far.

Seth Troxler added to the SW4 lineup

There are very few acts in electronic music history with the charisma and musical pedigree of Detroit’s Seth Troxler. Recognised as one of the industry’s most-loved characters, 2014 has seen Seth return to his nightclub roots and host a series of residencies at the world’s finest discotheques. With quarterly dates confirmed at Circoloco (DC-10), Output, Trouw, Fabric, Panorama Bar, Warung, Robert Jonson and more, he has had to cut back on the number of festival appearances he is due to perform at in the process. It’s therefore with great pride that Seth has selected South West Four for his only London festival performance this year. With music from his new label ‘Tuskegee’ set to be a huge part of his sets this year, Seth will no doubt provide one of SW4 2014’s greatest highlights.

This August history will be made, as SW4 welcomes the collaboration of underground titans Matthias Tanzmann, Davide Squillace and Martin Buttrich aka Better Lost Than Stupid for their UK debut. As individual artists these DJs have graced the world’s greatest clubs and festivals for many years but as Better Lost Than Stupid their appearances are rare to say the least. This trio of talent first spontaneously found themselves in the booth together at New York’s Electric Zoo and quickly realised the potential for serious artistic collaboration. After fully launching their new project in autumn 2012 with the promise of not only live performances but also original material, Tanzmann, Buttrich andSquillace’s most noticeable performances to date have been at Ibiza’s DC-10 and Serbia’s EXIT Festival.  Having established Barcelona as the centre of their creativity, Better Lost Than Stupid will make their way to London onSaturday 23rd August to demonstrate why their first ever UK performance is one you simply cannot afford to miss.

All good music should tell a story. Tales of experience. Tales of joy. Tales of love, lost and won. A Tale of Us.  This is the message that Berlin-based DJ and production partnership Karm and Matteo will be delivering as they make their hugely anticipated SW4 debut. Currently re-writing the rulebook for moving and emotive electronic sounds, their sonic vision pulls together key composing elements of house, techno, nu-disco and even rock. The past twelve months has seen Tale of Us’ profile rise to staggering new heights through their electrifying Ibizan residencies at ENTER and Circoloco, as well as their incredible productions such as tracks ‘Another Earth’ and their remix of Mano Le Tough’s ‘Primitive People.’ This brilliance has helped the duo enter Resident Advisor’s Top 100 DJs of 2013 at a commanding #2. Ranging from low-slung ambient tracks to more abstract compositions, Tale of Us can be regularly found in Berghain, Trouw, Robert Johnson and Watergate, clearly illustrating their dominant position within the underground scene.

With his mind-blowing Brixton Academy performance at Last Night On Earth on New Years Eve still fresh in our minds, Guy Gerber proved one of the first acts to be confirmed for the SW4 2014 bill. A natural at delivering gripping,melodic soundtracks, Guy strives towards a world of musical freedom, and absorbing the world’s intertwining cultures into his work. Over the past year, Guy has seen himself evolve into one of the undergrounds most creative assets thanks to the launch of his Wisdom of the Glove residency at Pacha Ibiza. Acting as a statement on the island, the night invited world class talent week in week out ranging from Nicolas Jaar to Four Tet to Cajmere and therefore cemented Guy as one of the White Isle’s favourite figures. Returning to SW4 for the first time since 2012, Guy’s beautifully crafted live set will deliver the most overpowering atmosphere as he once again takes our breath away.

Paco Osuna combines the dark and durable with intelligence and power through machinery and sophistication. As one of techno’s primary driving forces, Paco has seen his profile grow tenfold thanks to a series of exquisite performances as resident for Richie Hawtin’s ENTER party at Space Ibiza. As his sound continues to evolve by capturing the purest minimalistic sounds and combining them with depth and darkness, Paco’s clear passion andcreativity define him as one of the world’s greatest DJs.  As an indisputable part of Plus8’s ranks and founder of the illustrious Mindshake label (home to the likes of Paul Ritch, Barem and Carlo Lio), his ravenous appetite for fresh new sounds is unrivalled in the electronic community. As another act playing SW4 for the very first time in 2014, Paco Osuna guarantees to deliver an unforgettable journey through his vision of techno.

South West Four adds Laurent Garnier and more to lineup

London's premier electronic music festival South West Four reveals another batch of artists for this years summer festival at the iconic Clapham Common.

Hot on the heels of the last announcement, the latest additions include Laurnet Garnier, Maya Jane Coles, Heidi, Claude Vonstroke, Catz N Dogz and Kim Ann Foxman.

Having enjoyed a meteoric rise up the electronic music ladder since 2011, Maya Jane Coles returns to South West Four this year. Her deep and enticing sounds have resulted in huge interest in her underground productions and performances at the world’s most discerning nightclubs. With an ability to seduce the mind into unchartered territory, Maya’s work as a DJ, producer, audio engineer and artwork designer has been echoed around the planet. The 2013 release of ‘Comfort’ backed this up to dramatic effect, as did her superb ‘Easier to Hide’. This will be Maya’s first performance at SW4 since 2012 and her first set in London in seven months. When it comes to females leading the charge in electronic music, Maya is definitely at the forefront. We cannot wait to welcome her back.

As one of the finest musicians to have ever graced the world of dance music, it’s an honour to welcome back the legendary Laurent Garnier for his third performance at SW4 in four years. Laurent has kept the world grooving for nearly thirty years with one of the most celebrated back catalogues of electronic productions known to exist. After destroying Clapham Common with an exquisite set last year, every effort has gone into bringing this SW4 favourite back for another dose of his enthralling techno. Garnier’s ability to keep his sets as fresh and original as possible can be is reflected by his relentless quest to unearth the very best new music. Returning to SW4 in a London festival exclusive for 2014, we cannot wait to welcome this godfather back for another masterclass.

As one of most respected and influential figures over the past decade, Dirtybird Records boss Claude VonStroke returns to our hallowed turf on Sunday 24th August for his first SW4 performance since 2008. Born and raised in Detroit, Claude’s electrifying sounds, combined with his contagious personality, makes him one of the industry’s most exciting players. Having relentlessly toured every major city, festival, basement and after party around the world, last summer witnessed the launch of his Dirtybird residency at Sankey Ibiza where he hosted one of the White Isle’s most popular weekly parties. Building on thisremarkable success for 2014, Claude’s status as a pioneering game-changer will again be illustrated via his outstanding multi-deck wizardry at SW4.

Whether it’s through performing at the scene’s most dominant clubs and festivals, her worldwide Jackathon parties or her BBC Radio 1 residency show, it’s clear that Heidi’s hard-hitting grooves will go down a storm when she makes her SW4 debut this summer. As a firm favourite on the White Isle, 2013 witnessed Heidi play at Space for Carl Cox’s ‘The Revolution’, Richie Hawtin’s ‘Enter’, and ‘We Love’, in addition toSolomun’s party at Pacha and Jamie Jones’ ‘Paradise’ at DC10. With releases on Jackathon Jams and Get Physical, Heidi’s sets are a mixture of the freshest house, techno and disco around, with her South West Four debut on course to be one of the weekend’s most memorable highlights. SW4 get ready to Jack, as we welcome Heidi for a performance you simply won’t forget.

As we continue to keep things as fresh as possible for 2014, Clapham Common will welcome one of the dance music’s favourite duos for their SW4 debut and exclusive London festival performance. After heightening their esteemed reputation even further throughout the past twelve months with pivotal tracks ‘Evil Tram’ and ‘Hush’ gaining monumental support from the likes of Eats Everything and Justin Martin, we can confirm that Pets Recordings bosses and Dirtybird favourites Catz N Dogz are finally on their way to South London. With an insatiable appetite for success, Catz N Dogz are one of house music’s most dominating forces, with huge interest in their talents. As the pair look forward to an even bigger twelve months, backed up by the recent release of ‘Bones Shakin’ and ‘Booty Comes First’, we are delighted thatSW4 has been selected as their London festival of choice. 

Recognised as one of the most sought after up-and-coming DJs in dance music, we are delighted to announce that the formidable Kim Ann-Foxman will also be joining us this August. Having made a name for herself in her hometown of New York, Kim’s natural ability was quickly picked up as vocalist for the Hercules & Love Affair’s two hugely successful albums. She has since gone onto tour the world’s finest clubs and festivals as a solo artist. Boasting some of the most intense grooves you are likely to hear at SW4 this summer, this will be the first time that Kim returns to London after her stellar performance at Eats Everything’s XOYO residency. Her production ability is improving by the hour with her latest track ‘Burning Bright’ alongside long-term friend Maya Jane Coles receiving unconditional support, whilst her remix duties are also being exercised to the max.

The four newest acts added to this years SW4 Saturday lineup are trance legend Markus Schulz, house producer Fedde Le Grande, Arty and Super 8 & Tab.

South West Four 2014 will welcome the return of Markus Schulz. As a long time favourite at the Capital’s longest running club night, Markus has become renowned for delivering spectacular sets for The Gallery at Ministry of Sound, in addition to headline appearances at the most prestigious clubs and festivals the world has to offer. Through his outstanding audience interaction, flawless harmonic mixing and intuitive tune selection, Markus has gone on to stun crowds in every corner of the globe. With his brand new album ‘Scream 2’ already storming the charts after its recent release, we simply cannot wait for the Coldharbour Recordings boss to showcase his dominant yet euphoric fusion of house and trance on Clapham Common.

Widely recognised by fans and artists alike as one of the single most defining figures of contemporary house music, Fedde Le Grand returns to SW4 for the first time in six years. Since then, the Flamingo Recordings boss has evolved into one of dance music’s greatest assets, with a CV full of creative beats, contagious grooves and artistic rhythms that are consistently jetted around the world. A regular at the most prominent of festivals, Fedde Le Grand’s production ability has resulted in remixes for the likes of Madonna to Coldplay and Robbie Williams. A true favourite at SW4 HQ, we are incredibly proud to welcome the return of Fedde Le Grand.

After mesmerizing Alexandra Palace with a jaw-dropping performance at Above & Beyond’s Group Therapy event last October, Arty has inevitably remained fresh in our minds. Ever since that landmark night, we have fought off fierce competition to secure the sensational Russian for his inevitable SW4 debut. Still in his early 20’s, Arty has already lit up the electronic world with a collection of powerful releases on Anjunabeats, Axtone and Big Beat. With his beautifully melodic remix of London Grammar’s ‘Hey Now’ heavily supported by BBC Radio 1’s Pete Tong, Arty is set for world domination in 2014.

Described by many as one of the weekend’s most memorable highlights, their performance last year earned the pair a welcome return in 2014.

The legendary and SW4 regular Sasha joins the SW4 bill along with SW4 first time performers, Jamie Jones and Magda.

A man who needs absolutely no introduction joins the Clapham Common festivities for the very first time in 2014, as Jamie Jones finally makes his South West Four debut. Widely regarded as the leader of the new house sound that has dominated dancefloors worldwide over the past five yearsJamie’sslick and sexy adaptation of the 4×4 beat has resulted in his rapid catapault to global superstardom. Jamie’s pioneering sound has been instrumental in the success of his cross genre band Hot Natured and iconic label Hot Creations. This, along with his role as the face of Ibiza’s seminal nightclub DC10, has paved the way for a warmer and more melodic side of techno to emerge. Adding to this the recent launch of his second label HOTTRAX, plus his superb ‘Planets and Spaceships’ EP and its clear that Jamie joins us at SW4 at the very pinnacle of his career.
