Glasgow's DJ Frazi.er to host city's 'biggest ever' indoor techno event at Hydro this Christmas

Glasgow producer and DJ Frazi.er is to host the city's 'bigger ever' indoor techno event at the OVO Hydro this Christmas.

On Friday December 30, CONCEPT returns for another instalment, which is set to be played out in front of 14,000 fans.

Glaswegian Frazi.er is described as having a 'uniquely raw, energetic sound' that has led to international recognition and seminal releases on world-renowned labels including EXHALE.

Organisers say CONCEPT is a massive-scale production with a carefully hand-picked line-up, curated by Frazi.er himself, which is set to 'transform' the Hydro.

They've just announced: "High-energy techno, mind-blowing production, transparent visual installations and indoor pyrotechnics are just a few of the highlights of what promises to be a showstopping end-of-year party laid on by one of the country’s most promising young talents.

"Alongside Frazi.er, globally celebrated artist Dax J, acid heavy hitters 999999999, German maestros SHDW & Obscure Shape and uprising female talent Lokier complete a line-up of cutting-edge acts guaranteed to give 2022 the almighty send-off it deserves."

Frazi.er said: "I'm really proud to be headed back to the Hydro for a massive hometown show. Glasgow is where it all began for me so rounding off another year in the biggest arena in Scotland will be a real buzz. It's incredible to see the hometown support - there's no crowd like your own."

Meanwhile, the main event will be supplemented by an intimate pre-party, held at Glasgow’s Radisson Red Sky Bar - recently voted one of world’s top 50 coolest rooftop bars.

Organisers added: "Nestled on top of the hotel with stunning aerial views of the surrounding area and fitted out with a fully-fledged Void Acoustics sound system, the party sees Frazi.er and friends return after a hugely successful debut last year.

"And vitally, just like last time, all proceeds of the pre-party will be donated to a local children’s charity."

Frazi.er added: "Our pre-party had to happen at Radisson RED again, as out collaboration last year raising money to buy presents for kids at Christmas was probably the most rewarding thing I have ever been part of."

The previous edition of CONCEPT at the OVO Hydro sold out in less than 24 hours and featured R-label powerhouse Kobosil, Dutch talent Cynthia Spiering & Platform 18 head honcho Ivan Kutz, with December's event also likely to be similarly popular.
