Memory Box with James Lavelle

On Saturday, 21st March, Patterns is hosting a session that marks a decade of Memory Box putting on nights here in Brighton. While the brand itself has been running for fourteen years, this specific event is a celebration of their ten-year residency in our local scene. To mark the occasion, they’ve invited James Lavelle to play an electronic set. As the founder of Mo’Wax and the driving force behind UNKLE, Lavelle has spent decades involved in the architecture of modern electronic music, and his presence here is intended to reflect the history and influence that Memory Box has tried to showcase over the last ten years.

The format for this event follows an "evening session" structure, which is a bit of a departure from the standard late-night club schedule. Doors open at 17:00 and the music concludes at 22:00, providing a five-hour window that focuses on the performance without stretching into the early hours of the morning. Robin Ball is also confirmed for the line-up, contributing to the musical narrative of the anniversary. If you are thinking of going, it is worth noting that the last entry is strictly at 21:00, so the bulk of the activity happens during those earlier evening hours.

Located at 10 Marine Parade, the venue is a familiar spot for anyone who spends time in the city's nightlife. This is an 18+ event, and tickets are currently available starting at £19.06 through DICE, though some other listings might still show prices as "to be confirmed" or point towards different booking platforms like Skiddle. It’s a fairly specific celebration of a long-running club night, offering a chance to see a veteran of the industry in a more condensed, early-evening setting. Whether you’ve been following Memory Box since they started in Brighton or are just interested in Lavelle’s contribution to electronic music, the details are now set for the third Saturday in March.
