The Labyrinth 2012

Once you've tried Labyrinth, there's no turning back. Revered by techno nerds worldwide, it must be one of the most fastidiously crafted dance parties on earth: attendance is capped at 2,500 people, the high-end Funktion One sound system is EQed to perfection – and they only bother to book acts who know how to make the most of it. The organisers have only announced a fraction of the lineup, but it's already looking rather tasty, with highlights including live and DJ sets by Petar Dundov, the Croatian producer behind minimalist masterpiece Ideas from the Pond, and a hybrid set by deep techno maestro Peter Van Hoesen. Tickets are on sale now, and highly likely to sell out.
