LSDXOXO (2 Hr Set)
(XL Recordings / Floorgasm)

Techno’s favourite fiend (And XL Recording’s newest angel) brings his brand of playfully contorted NYC gutter trax to PTS once again. The uninitiated can expect to hear apocalyptic Rave, punishing Techno and sickly tainted diva-Pop, as your infernal host reminds you that it’s all good as long as it BANGS. It’s dance music in all it’s hedonistic vulgarity and we already know you’re here for it.

Grove (Live)
(Spinny Nights / Memorials of Distinction)

Sonic shards of Dancehall, Breakbeats and Rave underpin the riotous turbulence of Grove’s searing intensity. Unforgiving and confrontational; themes both personal and political are explored with biting relevancy and snarling fervency. Serious subject matter aside, Grove is a party-starter through and through — so drink a little brandy and get UP with us.

ALYA L (Closing Set)
(PTS / No Future)

Deftly weaving manic sets of futurist Club trax and outsider bangers, who better to close out the night than our own impishly sprightful ALYA L. Expect a myriad of twists and turns, from the spirited to the wistful, all the while maintaining a sense of urgency to keep that spring in your step. It’s gonna get HEATED.

Heathen Ritual (Live)
(Aphelion / Strangling Glass / VRGF)

Noise-distorted vocals, jaw-grinding Techno and a haze of burnt sage signal you to the presence of the Heathen Ritual. This triple-headed terror comes through like a cybernetic Cerberus, ready to FIGHT you at hell’s gates. What better way to open the night’s proceedings than with the fell blessings of these acolytes of destruction?

ROOM 2
DJ Eminflex ( )
(Bristol Normcore / Ceramics)
Making their first ever IRL outing, the enigmatic Eminflex performs incognito. They first came to our attention via a feature on Bruce's Noods show, and we've been hooked ever since. Combining driving dembow rhythms with clattering industrial percussion and folk-horror instrumentation, their 2020 release on Ceramics was one of the year's standout releases for many of us in the team. FFO: Avon Terror Corps, NAAFI.

Jurango
(PTS / Livity Sound / [re]sources)
Our very own lad-done-good, Jurangos been shooting from strength to strength over the past year. From much-hyped releases on French label [re]sources, to the behemoth Livity Sound (!) - his sound is a marriage of sultry, introverted UK Techno with brash, bashy Dancehall (a nod to his Jamaican heritage).

k means
(PTS / Noods Radio)
Trish! An absolute wizard on the decks, she’ll jump from wonky weirdness to furious footwork and back again. A selector who’s journeys have taken her to the furthest, ‘here be dragons’ corners of Bandcamp - her alias is taken from an algorithm that she used when writing a music recommendation system. She’s quickly become a core part of the PTS family over the past two years, and we can't wait to hear what she'll bring to the dungeon.
