Reading-based dan le sac returns to his home town for a special intimate gig at South Street arts centre.

His collaboration with hip hop poet Scroobius Pip has created an enormous buzz, combining witty and shockingly spot-on decrees from the mind of Scroobius with le sac's mesmeric electro beats.

While only ever intended as a low-key limited edition 7", the duo's first single Thou Shalt Always Kill emerged victorious as the thinking man's 2007 summer anthem.

The fuse was lit when the song quickly became the most publicly requested track in all eternity on XFM's Xposure show.

Rave reviews followed, with The Guardian endorsing it as 2007's first underground anthem. Radio rotation rocketed with 大象传媒 Radio 1's Zane Lowe naming it "the hottest track in the world right now", and later his Single Of The Week.

With their low-fi video having clocked up nearly a colossal two million views on YouTube, le sac and Pip suddenly found themselves topping Best Of 2007 lists across the globe.

Not ones to rest on their laurels, le sac and Pip have spent summer 2007 crafting their debut album, due out in May, and playing major festivals including Reading Festival.

The duo are touring with Mark Ronson in February, the USA in March, with another UK tour in April.

Anyone yet to witness the pair's awesome prop-embellished live set is in for a real treat. See you at South Street then!
