The Boardroom is a live collective producing and performing willful and sophisticated electro-techno for grownups. Sets comprise decks, DJs, keyboards, vocals and all manner of odd equipment; a dark musical journey for your mind that your feet just won't stop moving to. Current support from Roman Flugel, Weatherall, Sven Vath, Ivan Smagghe, Tiefschwarz etc.
The Boardroom has been busier than ever. After 2007's 4 12"s released as part of The 'Boardroom presents' series on Klang Elektronik, an album and 4 more 12"s are to follow on Klang this year. Further Boardroom releases have appeared on such labels as: Sven Vaths 'Cocoon' (Radical Majik), 'Hyper Colour' (Victorville), 'The Rotters Golf Club' (Two Lone Swordsmen remixes & Andrew Weatherall album), 'Harmless Records' (Watch The Ride Mix CD) and 'Mantra Vibes' (Ivan Smagghe's latest Mix CD).
Boardroom executives have produced/remixed for Alter Ego (Klang), Johannes Heil (Klang), Bret Johnston (Left Room), Battant (Kill The Dj), Black Lips (Vice), The Little Ones (Heavenly), Xerox Teens (Mute Irregulars), Siouxsie Sioux (Universal), The Two Lone Swordsmen (R.G.C.), and 2Raumwohnung (Virgin, Germany).
After a series of successful Bank Holiday live sessions at King's Cross's CANAL125 & away days @ Berlin's legendary Panorama Bar (Berghain), Frankfurt's electronic mecca Robert Johnson, Copenhagen's ultra-proper Culturbox & Reading's Checkpoint Charlie (now in it's 16th year !), their 12 hour all-night party is established in Shoreditch. Despite the credit crunch & unseasonal inclemency, their monthly pub-to-club cruise from The Griffin (Ravey Street) to Platinum (Paul Street) is now approaching its 6th occasion, with all 6 members of the Board due to appear:
