The time has come to mark 16 years of Egg LDN. To celebrate such a monumental occasion on our agenda, our first phase of the celebrations sees one of the club’s longest running friends, Nicole Moudaber, heads up our Middle Floor on 27th April.
Ukrainian electronic duo Artbat join Nicole on the night, making their UK debut which is well overdue after multiple, highly regarded releases on Diynamic Music, Fryhide, Gigalo Records & many more.
We can now announce that Frankie & Sandrino plus Hito will also join the line up.
With plenty of artists from the European soundscape to be announced over the coming weeks, our 16 birthday will undoubtedly one of the most memorable nights on our 2019 calendar.
History of the club:
Armed with a loyal crew comprised of Trade staff and a solid dose of determination, the previously disused warehouse was christened ‘Egg LDN’ to signify rebirth and a new chapter in both Malice’s life and London nightlife.
Owner Laurence Malice focused on a music policy which began to showcase emerging and long-running talent from the global electro and techno scene, with the likes of Joy Orbison, Chase and Status, Justice, Miss Kittin, Steve Bicknell and Jeff Mills cropping up in the Main Room during the early years.
Despite the niche booking policy, it wasn’t all plain sailing. Due to the location of the club opposite a notoriously unruly estate, revellers were wary to spend their weekends in an area frequented by a few undoubtedly questionable characters. However, slowly but surely, Egg’s 24-hour license and multiple outdoor spaces attracted a loyal crowd who went on to spread the word about a new spot which hosted a plethora of house, techno and electro names from all over the world.
As a result, it wasn’t long before Egg’s long-running sessions became legendary throughout the capital. Powering through the years of turbulent changes which could have knocked the club sideways, a slew of remarkable shifts on the electronic scene began to take hold. The introduction of the smoking ban in 2006, and the disappearance of iconic clubs between 2006 and 2013 – which included prominent spots such as The Key, Bagleys, The Church and The Cross – and a huge rehaul of Kings Cross were pinnacle events in the timeline of Egg LDN history, yet the combination of strong-willed team and an uncompromising roster of talent kept the club alive.
Evolving with the changes of our time, the club itself is currently undergoing a major refurbishment, with a brand new Main Room, sound system and more all to be revealed later on this year. With such positive architectural adjustments already lined up this year amongst other surprises, it’s safe to say we’ll be around for another while longer.
