The Fourth Edition of Danza Catartica happens to fall on the Friday's before Christmas - something that everyone in town calls "Mad Friday" - this also happens to coincide with its founder's birthday.
For this special pre-Christmas Birthday Bash, Bash Man will be joining Cornetta on the decks with his crate of records.
A well known figure in the Glasgow landscape, Bash Man is drawn to the harder, rawer edges of house and techno, with sets shaped by the influences of old-school rave culture and underground musicβs roots. Combining technical precision with carefully curated selections, his performances are all about driving the energy and keeping the crowd dancing from start to finish.
He has opened for the likes of Paranoid London, DJ Plant texture, D.Carbone and Cardopusher, as well as making appearances at larger events such as Riverside festival and Pressure.
In addition to his work behind the decks, Bash Man has releases on Leftfield House and Techno Imprint Non Stop Rhythm, the Detroit influenced UK techno label Data Sync records, Fear-E's Posh end music and a 12" release on Edinburgh based label step back records.
It's usually hard to tell what Cornetta will bring through the night, with a growing collection (and addiction) of records, her sound picks elements of high BPMs (140-160), Techno, Minimal, Dub, Tribal, Soundsystem Culture and Breaks. It can be said that she loves a purely improvisational approach according to the crowd and mood, which can swing from upbeat Latin influences to then dig deeper into a darker side of Dub Techno.
