Michael Bibi makes his debut to Silverworks Island with The Martinez Brothers Chris Stussy BLOND:ISH + more for charity event One Life
Irreverent in the tech-house scene for his sonic efforts across the world, ‘Solid Grooves’ honcho Michael Bibi makes his long-awaited debut to Silverworks Island. After having to sadly miss Solid Grooves Open Air in 2023 due to his cancer diagnosis and initial treatment, Bibi is back. This time, he arrives in his hometown at a new location with his newly developed giveback project ‘One Life’ which kicked off last summer with a sold-out takeover in Finsbury Park which featured the likes of Chloé Caillet, Dixon, Enzo Sirugusa, Salomé Le Chat and himself. Not only was this Bibi’s first show in the UK following his recovery, but it was also London’s biggest electronic event for summer 2024 raising sums for The Royal Marsden charity and an Anthony Nolan stand looking for stem cell research donors.
This year Bibi is teaming up with The Royal Marsden charity once again, where a percentage of all merch and ticket sales will be donated as well as a donation from Michael himself. The event will see a selection of some of the house and techno world’s leading producers and selectors such as Ben Sterling, Blond:ish, Max Dean, Chris Stussy, The Martinez Brothers, Luke Deans and more TBA go toe-to-toe for a day-into-night session of unparalleled music and production. This year, as One Life evolves into a one-day festival, the show will host multiple stages with a lineup of the highest calibre acts. To mark this special event a series of butterfly projections have been activated across London.
“I’m excited about the evolution of One Life; people coming together and helping others through music.” – Michael Bibi.
Silverworks Island is a new venture from the Broadwick Live team that will host some of London’s biggest summer sessions to date united in one place, with an industrial backdrop of the surrounding city. Exploring all corners of the underground/electronic music worlds, from house and techno to bass, grime and garage, shows with Worried About Henry, A State Of Trance already announced, there’s plenty more to come from the series which will run across the year. An ambitious cultural project, Silverworks Island aims to provide a new home for large-scale music events in the UK.
