This event marks the closing of Matt Stokes' exhibition 'Now is Early', which is currently at Void until the 2nd November. 'Now is Early' pays homage to the first rave era, in particular a series of cave raves which took place in the Lake District on the cusp of the 1990s. The exhibition includes glass cases full of rave paraphenalia - flyers, membership cards, cassette tapes, newspaper cuttings, plus an exact replica of the sound system used in the Lake District caves.
The event on November 3rd will use all three galleries in Void.
Gallery One will feature house and techno with Deep Fried Funk DJ's and Paul Brown. Gallery Two will focus on reggae, dub and ska with Daithi (Cheeba, Letterkenny), Mark Kenny, Dave McRave and Paul Shaka while the third Gallery space will feature a soundtrack of electronica and experimental tracks provided by Stephen McCauley (Electric Mainline), Hago (Global Virus), and Vincent O'Callaghan.
The venue will be transformed throughout with an installation by local artist Ciaran O'Dochartaigh (The Blue Room) and projected visuals by F12.
Void is located at Patrick Street, Derry in the basement of the Old City Factory building.
