The Other Nine to Five

VOLATL tm and Clink Recordings Present:
The Other 9 to 5 at 10 Critics –Detroit, MI

On Saturday, May 29, 2010, Chicago’s VOLATL tm, along with ground-breaking Berlin-based minimal techno and house label Clink Recordings, will host one of the premiere events during Memorial Day weekend; following the first day of Movement (Detroit’s Electronic Music Festival). This will be the third annual festival edition of The Other 9 to 5. This year’s lineup features Camea, Tim Xavier, Tony Rohr (Live) Mark Henning (Live), Elon, and Insideout, with Jason Patrick and Frederick Zahm.

VOLATL tm, a talent management and promotions agency based in Chicago, is pleased to present the most anticipated after-party lineup during the 2010 festival weekend. Past editions of The Other 9 to 5 (at Bert’s on Broadway and River’s Edge Grille) have featured Adultnapper, [a]pendics.shuffle, Miss Fitz, K.atou, Kate Simko, Bruno Pronsato, Camea, Daze Maxim, Jan Krueger, Tim Xavier, and many more. This year’s showcase, which features an amazing cross-section of artists from the Clink Recordings family, will once again deliver a musically-driven, uplifting event experience to techno connoisseurs gathering from around the world to attend the Movement festival. We will also be featuring two first time appearances to the festival weekend by Alexi Delano and Mark Henning.

Designed to stand out from the typical after-Movement event choices, The Other 9 to 5 will showcase an impressive performer roster, including internationally prominent techno artists making exclusive Detroit appearances. The event will showcase seven hours of DJ sets by both veteran and rising talent from around the world, including VOLATL and Listed Bookings residents. Patrons will enjoy this decadent audio experience at 10 Critics, an exclusive nightclub within walking distance of Hart Plaza. The event will feature crystal-clear sound expertly designed especially for the event by Source Audio Systems.

VOLATL has produced dozens of memorable techno events in Chicago, Detroit, New York, and Miami with a forward-thinking approach to bookings and cutting-edge sound systems. Clink Recordings, inspired by Camea and Insideout, laid its foundation in Brooklyn in 2003. Through the experience of sunset festivals, peak-hour DJ slots and 10am euphoria, Clink (now based in Berlin) presents the full spectrum of these vulnerable interactions and focuses purely on its love for minimal techno and house music. The Clink artists performing at The Other 9 to 5 have also worked with a wide range of record labels, including iconic imprints such as Drumcode, Minus, Plus 8, Spectral, Sci-Tec, Cityfox, BPitch, and Pokerflat, and promise to deliver a night of memorable performances encompassing the Clink sound.
