Phonikaは、世界が認め、最も影響力のあるアンダーグランドDJ”Terry Francis”をついに迎え、Unitにて記念すべき2nd Anniversaryを迎えます。
Terry Francisは今までの彼のキャリアの中で、Housey Doingz (with Nathan Coles)、2 Smoking Barrels、Blue Wig、Dattare, The Delinquents, G. L.F, Green Grass, Metal Dogz and T- Collective等の名義で曲をリリースし、最近ではKlunk & Zilly名義としても、素晴らしい作品を世に送り続けている稀有な才能を持った人物です。
彼が土曜日にレジデントDJをつとめる、ロンドンの老舗ClubであるFabricでは、オープン当初からレジデントDJとしてプレイをし続けており、彼のDJはFabricの歴史の中でも最も輝きを放ち続けた存在であり、そして常にシーンの中心となって影響を与え続けました。
彼はその後、同じ感性をもつプロデューサーと一緒となり曲のサポートし、またツアーDJとして帯同し続けた結果、今のテクノ・ハウスシーンにおいて彼は最も重要不可欠な人物となりました。
我々は1年以上に渡り、この日に彼を日本へと招待するために、世界No.1クラブでもあるFabric側と交渉を続け、そしてついに、この長い努力の結果、我々は幸運にもTerry FrancisをPhonikaのスペシャルゲストとして招待することになりました!
さらにこの夜は、世界中のクラブで活躍し、最近ではAudio Tokyo Electric Music Festivalでの素晴らしいプレイが記憶に新しいXavier Morelが登場。

After our many escapades this summer Phonika is back to celebrate its 2nd Year Anniversary in style @ Unit with one of the most influential underground DJs on the Planet. Over the years Terry Francis has brought to our attention a series of solid productions, both as Housey Doingz (with Nathan Coles) & released under the monikers 2 Smoking Barrels, Blue Wig, Dattare, The Delinquents, G. L.F, Green Grass, Metal Dogz and T- Collective in addition to his latest releases under Klunk & Zilly.
Alongside weekly dates worldwide, Terry's been a Saturday resident at London club fabric since it first opened it's doors & his DJ sets have been a consistent highlight in fabric's history, continually underlining his dual position as scene-stayer and tastemaker. An unwitting ambassador of the tech-house scene he has been in constant demand as a touring DJ, supporting the works of likeminded producers in the process.
We have been working on this for over a year and due to his commitment to the worlds number one club fabric, it has been difficult to lock this booking in. But, after all our hard work in making this happen we are extremely proud to announce we have the legendary Terry Francis as our special guest bringing to the table his very own take on electronic dance music.
Also on the night we have one of the most respected DJs on the Tokyo circuit today who will be showcasing his very new VX Techno sound. He has graced the decks in just about every club in Japan & performed at nearly all the festivals over the last twenty years including a magical set at this years Audio | Tokyo Electronic Music Festival. Xavier Morel has yet again been able to pull out a few surprises this year and after the acclaim of his recent VX album from the likes of Chris Leibing, Adam Beyer, The Advent, Ame, Dave Clarke we are lucky to have him perform on the Phonika Anniversary.
Continuing with our focus on the live aspect at our events we are also extremely proud to announce that after a long wait we have been able to bag a personal favourite of ours, Timothy Really`s extremely talented Spek. Comprising of So Inagawa (Minimood/Multi Vitamins), Sackrai (Minimood/Archipel) & the ever alluring Eri on vocals Spek have proved to be one of Tokyo`s surprise packages on the electronic music scene receiving rave reviews and plaudits for their deep melodic grooves and astonishing live performances.
In the main room we will have two of the cities top VJ talent in RealRockDesign & Mule Musics very own Idealsolution who will be transforming the dancefloor at Unit like you have never seen it before.
In the Saloon we are lucky enough to have Minimal Tokyo running the show, bringing their very own flavor with some of Tokyos finest underground techno DJs. We have Minimal Tokyo powerhouses Tatsuya & Valentino De Bronff who will be running the show. They will be supported by DJ Salmon, Tomotsugu Kondo in addition to Phonika residents Yuki Tsukinaga & DJ Hirose. In charge of the visual transformation in the Saloon for the evening will be Phonikas very own Okon & VJ You.
