John Digweed Open to Close

An Open to Close night at the Roundhouse in Camden Town, with British house DJs Sasha and John Digweed playing long, continuous sets in a single London event. The electronic show is built around two artists with a long shared history in dance music.

Sasha and John Digweed are both British DJs who began their careers in 1989. Sasha, born in Bangor, Wales, in 1969, is a house DJ and producer associated with the Global Underground label. John Digweed, born in Hastings in 1967, is a DJ, music producer and actor who specialises in house and is associated with Bedrock Records. His album Stark Raving Mad (2003) is among his best-known works.

This Open to Close event brings the two DJs together for a single night in London. The format gives them extended time to develop their selections, with the material describing their sets as built on deep, hypnotic grooves. A production created for this occasion will accompany the music.

The Roundhouse is on Chalk Farm Road in Camden Town. The venue mainly hosts concerts, with a focus on pop, rock and indie music, so this electronic night stands apart from its usual programme.
