There’s a lorra lorra names on that poster up there. You’ve got a Warp Records veteran and all round IDM legend headlining, supported by the best live act in the world right now and the musical manifestation of a life’s passion. Below that again you’ve got three hot Irish acts; one familiar name and two mysterious new upstarts trying to make a name for themselves. It’s all on Sunday night, in the Button Factory and you won’t have to get up for work in the morning because it’s a bank holiday. Amazing.

Judging by their Supersonic performance last weekend, Hype Williams are becoming one of the most important musical groups in the world so if you go for nothing else, go for that. You won’t regret it.

Where: The Button Factory

Sunday: 9pm

The Damage: €16
