Emptyset is a Bristol based production project formed by James Ginzburg, aka Ginz, boss of the Multiverse network of labels and Paul Purgas a longstanding electronic dj/collector and curator of this years We Can Elude Control compilation. Their collective agenda has been exploring techno music’s diverse influences and compiling them to a studio template focused on tight production and detailed sound design. Inspired by the city’s culture of bass lead production as well as the global resurgence of electronic music, the sound has been described as techno meets dubstep folded back onto techno again, a description which is perhaps the most insightful to date. The project owes credit to the classic releases of M-Plant, Sahko and Chain Reaction as well as more recent producers such as Alva Noto, Deathprod and Burial. Emptyset acts as a research project connecting the ideas of a modern dancefloor with experimental approaches to music and its design.

Good to see you the other weekend. Very pleased to hear that you'll be playing on the 18th at Danzshlag - think we're set on that date now. I'm in the process of working out my first live set for it - with saxaphone accompaniment. I think it can be done, although not entirely sure how yet, hehe Shibz x
