Vladimir Ivkovic, Dame Area & many more at Strange Brew
Headfirst Editor's Pick

"Sellout Warning! This ADHD-friendly, all-day-music-dream from Schwet may be the toughest and weirdest 11 hours to have ever graced the Brew. With high intensity, maximum stimulation start to finish, we can't pick a favourite from this lineup. It's that good. "

A gig held at Strange Brew on Saturday 6th May. The event starts at 17:00.


SCHWET X: A three-day blowout marking The 3650 Nights of Schwet.

We will reach climax on Saturday 6th with a two-room, eleven-hour bill at Strange Brew.

A handpicked showcase of eight of the most exciting artists we know with a deliberate focus on ol' Schwet favs vs. brand new acts. Covering: experimental, industrial, post-punk, EBM, synth pop and noise, with:

DJ Vladimir Ivkovic (LT)
The Ephemeron Loop (Guttersnipe, Petronn Sphene)
Dame Area (BCN)
Autumns (IE)
Yokel x D.HAM x Franco Franco (ATC)
Prangers
Rat Section
Ex-Agent

£13/15 = All Night & Day
£10/12 = Night Only (Vladimir Ivkovic, Dame Area & The Ephemeron Loop)

Thursday, we begin back where we started with a casual Mickey Zoggs takeover, attempting to recapture that Surrey Vaults glow. Resident DJs all night long...

Friday, we take the main stage at Strange Brew. Dan Johnson will lead a rebel-cabal of Schwet Heroes, controls set for total sonic actualisation. What a schtrange story...
