Time Out’s ‘coolest man in the world’, RnB remix master Cyril Hahn embarks on his debut European tour this month. Known for his dreamlike post-dubstep reworking of 1990s classics by the likes of Mariah Carey and Destiny’s Child and soulful takes on songs by Solange, Jessie Ware and HAIM, Cyril blends nostalgic melancholy with house beats. Receiving endorsement from Diplo, The XX and Annie Mac, Hahn is 2013’s one to watch. Presented by Now Wave and Hit + Run, this two-city spectacular is set to be huge, with Hahn previewing original material alongside his much-hyped current remixes, including his hypnotic take on Say My Name. Manchester has sold out, so if you want to catch him you’ll have to head over to Leeds where he’s on first. Party bus, anyone?
