Ewan McVicar presents Hysteria - Liverpool

A club night in Liverpool presented by Ewan McVicar, the Scottish DJ and producer, under the title Hysteria. The electronic music on offer draws on acid house and house.

Ewan McVicar is a Scottish DJ and music producer from Ayr, born in 1994. McVicar works between acid house and house, within the British electronic music scene, and this Liverpool night is presented by McVicar under the title Hysteria.

Acid house takes its name from the squelching, resonant basslines associated with the Roland TB-303 synthesiser, a sound that emerged from Chicago's house scene in the 1980s and spread through British dance culture. House, built on repetitive four-four drum patterns and soulful vocal and chord elements, forms the wider pulse of the style. Both genres sit at the core of McVicar's work as a DJ and producer.

Blackstone Street Warehouse is a concert and performance venue on Blackstone Street in Liverpool. The night will appeal to listeners who follow house and acid house, and to those interested in the British electronic scene.
