Fri 6 Jun | Hybrid Theory | Joshua Brooks
After hosting Cause & Affect earlier in the month, Joshua Brooks features another key duo from the Jackin’/House & Bass scene this Friday – Hybrid Theory. Their remix of DECiBEL’s Flowdan-featuring Skanks brought them to the attention of many a DJ last year, and the pair’s prolific label Four 40 Records has gone from strength to strength in 2014. They’ll be playing for an hour and a half and have the skills as DJs to be worth the price of admission alone.

Sun 8 Jun | Trumpet & Badman | Soup Kitchen
DJ Haus, boss of Unknown to the Unknown Records has his finger in many pies. The latest of these pies is Trumpet & Badman, a throwback garage-house partnership with the mighty DJ Q, probably the leading light in UK Garage right now. This party celebrates the launch of the pairing’s forthcoming EP and features Haus alongside a special, unannounced guest. You don’t have to be a genius to work out who this guest is likely to be, resulting in pure party vibes for a Sunday evening.
