» HISTORY

ENDURANCE celebrates the music and themes of ELECTRONIC BODY MUSIC, a genre of synthesized dance music that first emerged in the early 1980s. The aim of ENDURANCE is to treat the genre as a valid form of dance music in itself, playing down but respecting it's links to other genres like GOTH and INDUSTRIAL whilst highlighting the links to late 80s/early 90s dance styles like NEW BEAT, ACID, HOUSE and the current new wave of artists creating similar sounds.

ENDURANCE was launched in November 2009 and took place in a number of small venues up and down the Kingsland Road between Shoreditch and Dalston.

In May 2010 ENDURANCE (v 2.0) was relaunched at the newly opened Alibi, in the heart of Dalston. The area and venue quickly became the new places to be seen in East London, ENDURANCE featured in various 'Top 10s' and bands like //TENSE// and White Car released music causing terms like ELECTRONIC BODY MUSIC and INDUSTRIAL to be used once again in the music press. For a while the club was more popular than anyone involved had expected.

Just prior to the second birthday the decision was made to bring ENDURANCE version 2.0 to an end. The club could no longer operate as a regular event without the message being lost amid crowds of weekend clubbers.

ENDURANCE v3.0 launches in early 2012.
