One of electronic music’s most enigmatic acts, Autechre return to London for the first time since 2022 for their biggest headline show to date.
This is a unique live experience in which the duo perform in total darkness for 90 minutes. Believe when we say this one is not to be missed.
Pre-sale goes live tomorrow at 11am.

A look back at 13 years of off-kilter rooms, renegade line-ups and the spaces that shaped us. From boats and warehouses to the early Drumsheds era. The Hydra has always been about pushing things a step sideways, stitching together corners of the scene that aren’t meant meet, but somehow do.
On the 5th December at Drumsheds, we return with that same instinct.
Three minds. One sound. Over 20 years of collaborative wizardry.
@moderat at The Hydra x DJ-Kicks, the moment Drumsheds turned into a living, breathing subwoofer.
Who would you invite to your DJ-Kicks alumni dinner party?
@djstormdnb & @reaptimer sat down to chat about their ideal lineup and the importance of ironing shirts before gigs after their set at our party last year.
“I think it was beautiful and I think we need more of that”
Quantic and Ehua blessed our @drumsheds show at the end of the year with their first ever b2b. In 30 years they’ll have evolved as much as DJ-Kicks has, with all the croissants, yachts, and mixes you can dream of.
If you don’t use it, you lose it.
We caught up with @kellyleeowens and @rroxymore after their energetic set @drumsheds earlier this month for our DJ-Kicks anniversary with @thehydraldn . Watch as they give advice for clubgoers and reflect on the dance music community as well as the perils of the current state of artistry.
What happens when one of the world’s most revered mix series combines with the finest purveyor of underground electronic music in the country? - A match made in b2b heaven.
DJ Kicks (@k7records ) and @thehydraldn came together for a night that featured never before seen partnerships and electric combinations of artists. We spoke to @cinthie_dj , @quanticmusic and @ehuamusic to get the secrets on how best to share the spotlight.
Two histories, one pulse.
From the underground up, The Hydra’s off-kilter DNA fused with DJ-Kicks’ meticulous curation to create a Friday evening underlined by a devotion to sound and electronic music culture.
Watch and learn: Drumsheds bore witness to sharp selections from @djkozeofficial b2b @moodymann313 , playful reworks courtesy of @jobjobse b2b @saoirse_music ,and a masterful finale from the elusive and spectacular @moderat .
A reminder that real range comes from years, not moments, behind the booth.
