    BACKLASH // Thursday 02 June // Headman + Jon Averill
    As Part of the Bud Rising Festival. NOTE: Admission only 5eu

    Following on from Optimo DJs, Swiss DJ Robi Insinna better known as Headman will be the next to the
    prestigious ranks of Backlash's international guest portfoilio when he plays a DJ set as part of the Bud
    Rising Festival on Thursday 02 June.

    Probably best known for his recent 'Dance Modern' mix on the widely respected label Eskimo which which
    features tracks from artists such as Le Dust Sucker, Edwin Laliq, Rex The Dog, Franz Ferdinand, alongside
    older tracks from Divine, Lene Lovich and New Fast, its a mix of obscure new wave and disco meets acid
    and electro which is probably a good indicator of what to expect from Robi's set at Backlash

    Check out all the tracks from it here: http://www.juno.co.uk/products/155858-01.htm

    Headman is also well known for his prolific remix work , he's turned out mixes for Franz Ferdinand,
    Annie, Jasper Dahlbak, Cut Copy, Reverso 68, Radio 4, Trash Palace and The Rapture to name just a few.
    His punk-funk remix for 'Seelenluft's 'Manila' attained ‘Single Of The Month’ status in Dazed And Confused.

    Robi currently has two projects on the go, one is the afore mentioned Headman releases but he also records
    under the moniker of Manhead. 'As I see it', Robi says, 'Headman was my imaginary band. We were playing all
    that weird new wave, no wave, disco punk stuff. It was more concrete conceptually. Manhead was always
    designed to be more poppy, more electronic. I wanted it to be balearic, disco, cosmic. That was the original intention'.
    'Manhead's 'Birth, School, Work, Death' track has been a Backlash favourite ever since its release,
    His debut self titled album has just been released on his own Relish imprint to great reviews and focuses on a
    dubby acid disco sound, not disimmilar to some of Chicken Lips work and the next Headman album is near
    completion featuring vocals from Steph Dewaele from Soulwax and Anthony from Radio 4.

    Hear tracks from the Manhead album here: http://www.juno.co.uk/ppps/products/175573-02.htm
