Better than ever: fabric reopening reviewed
After a short time away, the London club is back on top form
Fittingly, it was there that Craig Richards and Terry Francis delivered the sets of the night. There’s a popular Tumblr blog dedicated to “things fitting perfectly into other things”, which finds objects that slot together without planned design. There’s something immensely satisfying about such a sight; among the chaos of the world, these things align perfectly. The exact same feeling was generated by seeing Richards and Francis back helming the booth of Room 1. The two DJs have both held residencies at fabric since its inception in 1999, and have grown in stature alongside the club, contributing to its lofty reputation. They’re as much a part of fabric as the brick and mortar of its foundations, and hit the ground running with a deftness that made us feel like fabric had never been away, serving as a powerful reminder of how lucky we are to have such a club in London.
To round off, check out 13 tracks, played by DJs across both rooms, that made the night so special...
