VØRA: Saytek*LIVE with minimal detroit

VØRA × Minimal Detroit present Saytek’s Detroit debut. For more than two decades, Saytek has done something few in techno attempt: he doesn’t DJ. Every set is built live and improvised on hardware in real time. He came out of London’s squat and illegal party scene in the early 2000s and was performing machine-driven live sets long before “live techno” was a festival staple. Detroit-rooted and warehouse-driven, high-energy and deeply hypnotic, rolling machine funk shaped by 90s techno from Detroit, Europe and the UK. Over 500 tracks, most recorded live, have landed on labels including Soma, Fabric, TRAX, R&S, Bedrock, KMS and Carl Cox’s Awesome Soundwave. Cox himself has called him a genius at playing live. He has been ranked in the top 10 of FAZEmag’s Live Act poll for three years running and has played Tresor, Fabric, Awakenings and Space Ibiza along the way. Now the machines come to the city that inspired them. Live techno on the hardware, wax-only sets on the support, one night at SOS Detroit.
