Eastern Electrics announce DAY TWO for Mixmag with Jamie Jones, Patrick Topping, Nastia, Eats Everything, Alan Fitzpatrick, Skream + TQD

Eastern Electrics has long been a key member of London’s clubbing community. Starting as a warehouse rave almost ten years ago, EE has grown to be a fully-fledged festival affair – an essential date in the calendar for any electronic music head. Branching out from it’s one day format, EE also can announce a second day, with some of the heaviest names in bass, garage, reggae and D&B involved – think Sir David Rodigan MBE, one of the biggest D&B labels in the world, and more to be come. Saturday’s line-up sees the underground elite unite, mixing the freshest house, techno, garage, disco, bassline and more, from Jamie Jones and Patrick Topping on the Main Stage to Nastia, Eats Everything, Alan Fitzpatrick, Skream, Dennis Ferrer, Sam Divine, TQD, The Menendez Brothers and more winning names dotted across the festival. Between 4th – 5th August in South London’s lush Morden Park there’ll be thousands of like-minded party people celebrating dance music – appreciating the next level production from the Switchyard stage to the Electric City, there’s so much to see and do. Choose one day, or go hard and box off the whole weekend – it’s up to you. Tickets for the whole weekend are available from £57.50, or grab a single day ticket for £35 (Sat) or a bargain £20 (Sun).
