Warp drives ahead with its20th anniversary live events.
Paris, New York, London and Tokyo to host events
Warp, one of the industry's most influential indie labels, is celebrating its 20th anniversary later this year with a series of one- off live events around the world and a series of special new releases.
The label, which was formed in Sheffield in 1989, is holding the "Warp 20" events in Paris in May, New York in July, Sheffield in August, London in September and Tokyo in November.
Full details of the events are yet to be released, although Paris Warp 20 will take place at the Cite De La Musique museum space on May 8 and 9, with a bill that includes Aphex Twin, Andrew Weatherall, Flying Lotus and Pivot. In addition, most events will include art installations and film.
Warp 20 releases will include a deluxe-packaged boxed set featuring previously-unreleased archive material from some of the label's biggest artists, as well as a compilation of the label's best tracks voted for by fans on Warp20.com.
"We did similar things for our 10-year anniversary and it was so amazing having all our acts together under one roof," says Warp co- founder Steve Beckett. "We decided that we wanted to do something bigger this year. We have got so many acts on the label we felt that we could turn it into a mini-festival."
The 20th anniversary celebrations will lead a busy year ...
