Preview: Jackhammer with Jeff Mills, Edinburgh Liquid Room

BACK in 1995, techno legend Jeff Mills performed a breathtaking set at Tokyo’s renowned Liquid Room venue. It would later be released as a mix CD and, to this day, is still regarded as one of the finest mixes of the genre.

The good news for the Capital’s techno music fans is that when Mills returns to the Liquid Room on Saturday, 29 December, they won’t have to fly all the way to Japan, as he will be in control of his customary three decks when appearing at Edinburgh’s venue of the same name.

Mills turns 50 next year and can boast three incredible decades as one of the world’s most-respected and best-known DJs. A list of his achievements would fill the entire Evening News website, but he is, of course, the man behind such gems as the Purpose Maker series and countless classics on the Axis label.
