(DETAILS OF NIGHT THREE) -

We are extremely excited to announce that the third instalment of the Spectrum series on May

11th will be programmed by Bitten Twice and Burner Records and feature newly commissioned work by visual artist Diarmuid Farrell.

Bitten Twice is an Experimental Rave collective dedicated to promoting left field electronic music. Formed in 2020 with the mission to give a platform to electronic music that until recently would have no place in Irish clubs. Consisting of Baliboc, E the Artist, Julia Louise KnifeFist, and Fomorian Vein, since their inception they have showcased multiple international collective events and have been described by Plain Sailing magazine (Belfast) as “one of the most exciting labels to emerge from Ireland in recent memory”.

Burner Records were founded in 2018 in the midst of Ireland's up and coming hip hop scene. Artists on the label include Fynch, Local Boy, Muttonhead and XXXX in Stereo, the roster boasts a wealth of live experience including appearances at Vicar Street, Electric Picnic, Body and Soul, Center Point and many more. Recent highlights have included the crew's monthly residency in the Workmans Club and a UK tour.

Diarmuid Farrell is a digital folk artist, they adopt utilitarian methodologies from new media art such as data encryption, ix design and algorithmic development to aesthetically explore themes of ephemera, communal archival practices and contemporary landscapes. Their A/V (Audio/Visual) work spans the sonic spectrum, producing expansive visual experiences utilising improvisation, code and mixed reality technology. Their A/V practice has seen them collaborate with leading experimental artists, Baliboc, Plus One, Quantum Foam, Asa Nisi Masa & Apu Nanu.
