THE CRYSTAL METHOD ‘DIVIDED BY THE NIGHT’ ALBUM LAUNCH PARTY @ SPECTRUM, MATTER. 21ST AUGUST 2009

Spectrum will once again return to matter on 21st August with a line-up headlined by renowned duo The Crystal Method, launching their new album Divided By The Night with their only London club date of the year.

Notorious for over a decade for enduring dancefloor anthems such as Now Is The Time and Keep Hope Alive, a willingness to collaborate with an array of talent meant that the duo also managed to succeed in the remix, film soundtrack, television, gaming and advertising worlds. Their platinum-status debut album Vegas (released in 1997) is one of the biggest selling electronic albums of all time, landing them in the top five best-selling electronic acts in America. With a reputation for adapting to new trends to stay ahead of the curve, TCM manage to draw beyond the typical electronic audience. Whether it’s bringing in live drums or lining up collaborations with talents from the vast spectrum of pop sub-genres, The Crystal Method has managed to put a distinctly American face on the European-dominated electronic movement.

Joining them will be the legendary Scratch Perverts. With the launch of their latest mix album Beatdown designed to showcase what you'd hear in a recent club set by the trio, they'll be stepping out of their comfort zone of hip-hop sounds, with Beatdown featuring recent cuts from the dubstep (Joker, Skream, Digital Mystikz), electro-house (Jack Beats, Laidback Luke) and drum & bass (Sigma, Lomax, Logistics) scenes.
