BIOS:
Nadus, the versatile DJ and producer hailing from Newark, New Jersey, has been a prominent figure in the electronic music scene, known for his boundary-pushing sound. With a diverse range of influences spanning Jersey club, hip-hop, and electronic dance music, Nadus has crafted a unique sonic signature that’s as infectious as it is innovative. His tracks are characterized by high-energy beats, intricate percussion, and a distinct urban flavor, making them a staple in club scenes worldwide. Nadus continues to be an influential force in shaping the future of electronic music, garnering respect, and admiration for his dedication to pushing the envelope and redefining the boundaries of contemporary dance music.

IKONIKA is one of the most respected names in the UK bass diaspora, after more than ten years, four albums, dozens of EPs, and gigs all over the globe. Best known for her numerous releases on and affiliation with Hyperdub Records, as well as EPs on DBA, Night Slugs and more recently Club Djembe, she is an artist ever in motion, now light years away from the post-dubstep landscape where she first made her name. While certain aspects of her sound remain consistent – a love of club-friendly rhythms purpose built with digital flair and a strong sense of melody – the diversity of her interests ­– pop, R&B, bashment – have become even more apparent in recent music. She’s opened up to singing herself on new material she has written, giving her productions a lighter pop feel. This includes the Amapiano soaked ‘Bubble Up’ EP and has led to a new live show which combines singing, with live edits of her songs as well as DJing. This show premiered to a rapt audience at Panorama Bar in September 2022. She has an upcoming single with Night Slugs.

HOODBABYBLUE can do it all. An effervescent Jersey goddess, she is a DJ, designer, dancer and your favourite Jersey girl. She’s worked with folks like Half Moon Radio, Rise Radio and Thread, and recently pulled out a beautiful set at The Lot Radio with NJ’s sweatystickysweet which you can catch up on via YouTube and Soundcloud. She’ll be kicking off the evening so make sure you arrive at 21.00! Playing New Jersey hip hop, Jersey club and hard-hitting dance focused sounds.

D3NIM is part of a new gen in the Jersey music scene bringing his own take to its DIY culture with his incendiary events platform No Vista – curating sell-out shows with the likes of Tony Humphries and Night Slug’s Bok Bok, recently he played with Jersey club legends DJ Tameil and Nadus.

A. Sarr is a Nicaraguan Producer/DJ who was mostly raised in NYC. His music lives in the pocket between throwing ass and vibing out. He lives in New York and the hearts of many. He is a NYC beats music innovator with a trailblazing residency at New York club Bossa Nova which has featured the likes of Nothing Neue and VAPPEROR. Listen to his album LOCAL LEGENDS for hypnotising and richly emotional clubby ambient haze.

TAH is a pioneering DJ and Producer hailing from Newark, New Jersey. A bedroom producer in the most glorious sense, when TAH talks about their ideal studio, they build a picture of slippers at the entrance, water fountains and “a bigger-budget version” of their current set-up, full of Moog synths and soft things. “When I’m home, it’s for sleep or making things. It makes producing more sacred to me — rest is sacred,” they say. Something of an enigma but very prolific, TAH has a plethora of unreleased tracks just for playing out. Sometimes they’ll take notes on how to improve a track while it’s playing on the dancefloor — “on those $2m soundsystems in New York”. It is this perfectionism that allows for such a nuanced, intuitive sound. Drawing inspiration from a wide range of influences, from deep house and techno to jungle and breaks, TAH weaves intricate and hypnotic soundscapes that defies easy categorisation. One of the lovely people behind sweatystickysweet, a collective celebrating black queer presence in jersey club, house & regional Black dance music as a whole.

dream beach is the brain child of Andrew Oliver; a Metro Detroit born electronic music producer and dj. He recently took part in Bruiser Thanksgiving for Danny Brown – the final hometown holiday show, ending a ten-year tradition – dream DJ’d for artist and collaborator Squadda B. Sharpening his swords over the past few years providing production for Fat Ray and Bruiser Wolf on Danny Brown’s Bruiser Brigade record label, Dream is no newcomer to adding vocal artists to his production. His upcoming EP undulates in nature, whispers of the highs and lows of two moods, in an experiment of synth-core, Detroit house, B-more, breakbeat and ambient.

89 the Brainchild, an experimental rapper hailing from New Jersey, has been making significant waves in the hip-hop scene. He goes against the status quo and raps over electronic beats, crafting a new lane in the hip-hop world. You might have seen him rolling with the backwoods studios folk, and chilling with your favourite DJs. His recent event with his collective Strangers was featured in Pitchfork.
