Forward/Slash is a weekly free night of electronic-leaning music that took place in The Bernard Shaw, Dublin up until recently. It’s now moving to the Twisted Pepper on Thursdays and with it a more expansive lineup and a couple of international guests, one in particular, Nosaj Thing, I’ve been dying to see in Ireland since I saw him at SXSW twice.
It all kicks off again on October 18th with Bantum and proceeding weeks include Laurel Halo, Nosaj Thing on November 8th with White Collar Boy, Eatenbybears, Nanu Nanu, Spies, Clu, Tara Masterson Hally and more lined up.
Looking forward to hearing the new Nosaj Thing material. Here’s what he’s like live:
