Shed & Mosca

Back in Japan after a four-year break, René Pawlowitz aka Shed is one of Berlin's most celebrated producers. Drawing on '90s hardcore, drum & bass and, most notably, on the proud techno traditions of Chicago and Detroit, he knows how to combine nostalgia-tinged tunes with more experimental discoveries – a tendency that should be on full display at this Contact night, where the man also known as Head High, WK7 and EQD will be joining forces with up-and-coming London bass soldier Mosca.
