Leftfield



Throughout the 90s Leftfield were untouchable live and on record, starting a snowball rolling for British dance music alongside outfits like Orbital, Underworld and the Dust / Chemical Brothers in breaking electronic music from the underground, onto the stage and into the charts.







They have always been regarded as one of electronic music’s defining live acts. The now-infamous Liveism tour that followed Leftism’s release set a new precedent in sonic presentation as the behemoth sound system, which aimed to replicate the cataclysmic bass effect of reggae sound systems, incurred more complaints than Motörhead, and a ban from Brixton Academy when plaster started flaking from the ceiling. The tour elevated dance music from anonymous club PA to major event, with guest vocalists joining the party.







To mark the release of Leftism 22, Leftfield will perform Leftism live in its entirety for the first time, including a return to Brixton Academy. The Brixton and Glasgow Barrowlands shows sold out in minutes, with extra dates at both venues added and now also sold out. Leftfield will also perform at Camp Bestival, closing the festival on 30 July.
