INCOGNITO’S SPRING EQUINOX WITH:
Tash LC
One of the most exciting DJs in operating in both hemispheres, Tash LC is an acclaimed DJ and air miles accumulator. She has shows on both Worldwide FM and Radar Radio, disseminating her unique blend of Afro-oriented club music. Strains of Kuduro, Gqom, Funky, Dancehall and much more combine in sets that leave club ceilings dampened and ravers flailing.
FAUZIA
Fauzia spins a soulful range of club music that gathers pace from RnB and House, speeds through Garage and Rap and enters the stratosphere with a lightspeed Footwork selection. She is a resident DJ for the Gal-dem magazine and collective and holds down a monthly slot on NTS radio.
MOMO
Local hero Momo is bringing her deep crate of House, Techno, Disco and groovy leftfield Electronica. How deep is said crate? No-ones sure, but it’s got a designated lifeguard. Catch her on Platform B radio and playing dances all over Brighton and London.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
The alignment of earthly planes with those of the sun has had a dramatic gravitational effect on Incognito, dragging us to Brighton. For our debut party, we’ve got a lineup that’s going to shake the Al Duomo basement to pieces and quite likely disattach Sussex from the rest of the UK so that it may float off into the Atlantic ocean and pursue its own destiny.
Come and shake a leg, or two if you have more than one.
2018
Cosmin TRG is one of dance musics’ most exciting and iconic artists operating right now – the Romanian-born artists DJ sets are world-renowned, with productions that light up the dance floors he can’t reach in person. A favourite at Berghain, fabriclondon, Control Club and every other techno institution going, he’s also a fiend for the fermenting underground scene he came from, so it was inevitable that he graced Incognito’s warm and slightly greasy decks for our end-of-year blowout.
Starting his career with a seminal early release on Ben UFO’s Hessle Audio label and going on to develop a signature sound built from ‘90s era leftfield electronics, warehouse techno…’ and so much more, Cosmin is THAT GUY – from Berlin to Bucharest, from London to Leningrad. We strongly feel that the After Dark is finally going to meet its match, and we cordially invite you to be there when it all goes down. The earth will shake, the walls will crumble and the skies will open to the pure, unadulterated moment of the night – and with Cosmin driving the spaceship, who knows where we’ll end up. Incognito’s scallywag resident DJs will be there to ensure everyone is strapped in safely.

Spin the wheel of fortune with Incognito and our fabulous contestants Compton White, Midnight Marauders w/ Marshmello and Tochigi Canopy at the inimitable After Dark Club on Friday 10th of November! Enter the throbbing cyclone of flashing lights and undulating beats as we tumble toward the final round…
Compton White, the recent Tri Angle Records signee has received support from artists such as Björk, and fervent ratings from institutions such as The Guardian, The Quietus, The FADER, Bestival and more, with his music described as “unstoppable… this young and enigmatic producer might just be one of the few pleasant surprises to come out of a punishing 2016”. He’ll be performing LIVE as well as DJing so sit straight in your seats and keep hands and feet inside the ride for a show, unlike anything the ‘Ding has ever seen before.
Midnight Marauders w/ Marshmello is one of DJs that gave NTS Radio it’s worldwide reputation for impeccable selections, bringing her body shaking rhythms to our infamous dance floor, this is an artist we’ve been looking forward to hosting for a long time, and will be remembered for a long time to come.
And Tochigi Canopy (FHUO Records) should need no introduction to the Berkshire cognoscenti, bringing his unworldly selections, a cascade of wax to reach deep into yer’ soul and make a balloon animal out of it. With an astonishing album ‘Collecting Things’ recently dropping, we’re ecstatic to have the rave wizard himself in our new home.

Incognito Radio presents Suburban Paranoia?
Reading is the UK’s largest town. It’s got a lot to offer: grey skies, an unsettling mix of affluence and poverty, many branches of Greggs. But what makes it different from the rest? The best way to find out is our community meeting on 29th of September 2017.
We’re flying in some incredible artists to light up our small corner of this village, in a venue that’s iconic to the Reading. Small being a relative term – it’s our largest party, but the intimate INCOGNITO feeling is here to stay.
See you on the dancefloor.

Artists:
GIRL UNIT – Chief Administrator
Legendary DJ, producer, and bureaucrat, GIRL UNIT is an all-time favourite of the Incognito team. A Night Slugs mainstay, he had an outrageous hit with his debut single ‘Wut’ and just kept going, with each release turning clubs inside out. Drawing influence from electro, trap, grime, techno, juke and god-knows where else, Girl Unit’s sets are legendary: instant favourites from tunes you might never have heard of and classics sounding completely fresh.
L U C Y – Recruitment Consultant
Behind the decks in the rave or behind the desk at a careers fair, you can’t miss LUCY these days. Words on paper don’t do much justice but it’ll all make sense at the time- the world of LUCY goes fast and slow, its rough and grimey but smooth and melodic, and once you’re in its hard to get out. Dip yer toes in the water with her new mixtape, featuring Mariah Carey, free- jazz, and more all laid over twitching breakbeats and shimmering 2-step.
JAWSIDE – Secretarial Czar
Armed with a big stapler and bag of muscular grime anthems, Jawside’s gonna check your paperwork whether you like it or not. Catch him on Rinse FM, NTS Radio and making beats for Boxed on their legendary vinyl pressings, Jawside’s tunes are weighty as anything and end up stuck in your head for days. Playing on a sound-system that’s only gotten bigger since last time, this one’s going to rattle everyone’s jaw-side.
Gregzlar – Careers Counsellor
Gregzlar is going to set you up with an internship, apprenticeship or at the very least a few tunes that’ll leave you dizzy and confused. Loosen your tie to a bassy, freewheeling selection that reaches from dubstep to grime and into the cosmos beyond. It’s hard to stay angry at the system when Gregzlar’s got everyone in the postcode shocking out.
