Carl Cox honoured by Prince William

Carl Cox received a British honour for his services to music at Windsor Castle, presented by Prince William. The award recognises one of the most prominent figures in techno and electronic music.

The ceremony took place on 10 November at Windsor Castle, and Cox interrupted his ongoing US tour to attend. Afterwards he said he was sure his parents would have been proud of him, and according to him, Prince William told him he had been a fan of his music for many years and that they also talked about their shared love of motorcycles. 2027 marks 50 years since he started as a DJ, and he was a resident at Space in Ibiza from 2001 until the club closed in 2016. The OBE sits one level above the MBE and below the CBE, and it does not come with the title ‘Sir’.

Rave The Planet releases unreleased Juan Atkins set

Rave The Planet announces its Berlin parade for 10 July 2027 under the motto ‘MAKE PEACE LOUD’ and releases an unreleased Juan Atkins set from 2022. The organisers are also looking for volunteers.

Read more

The recording of Juan Atkins' set comes from the first Rave The Planet parade in 2022 and is available on the organisers' SoundCloud channel as a tribute to the Detroit techno legend who recently passed away. Rave The Planet acknowledges that the sound quality is not perfect, but says the recording's value lies mainly in its historical significance. Atkins was one of the Belleville Three alongside Derrick May and Kevin Saunderson, and his projects Cybotron and Model 500 influenced electronic music worldwide. The organisers are also seeking volunteers for funding management, project management and eco and sustainability work, with the long-term goal of a zero-waste parade.

Amsterdam club THE OTHER SIDE seeks support after break-in

According to FAZEmag, Amsterdam club THE OTHER SIDE lost nearly 100,000 euros worth of equipment in a break-in on the night of 9 November. The club has launched a donation campaign to keep operating.

The club is located in the Houthavens district, and the stolen equipment reportedly included an Allen & Heath dLive mixing console, all of its CDJs and mixers, iPads, controllers, microphones, moving heads and hazers, as well as the control system for the permanently installed lighting rig. The insurance will only cover part of the costs due to depreciation and exclusions, and some of the stolen devices are no longer manufactured, making them hard to replace. Through a GoFundMe campaign, THE OTHER SIDE aims to raise 80,000 euros in total, to be used for new equipment and running costs in the coming weeks. The local scene is also organising a community dinner on Friday to show solidarity with the club.
