About the Event
~ Nicky Blackmarket ~ After the huge success of our first sober club night In January, we’ve only got Nicky Blackmarket back again! Nicky started DJing in the 1980s when he was 14 and is regarded as one of the pivotal figures in the early jungle/drum and bass scene. He also founded independent dance music record store Blackmarket Records (now known as BM-Soho). He’s been playing drum and bass all over the world for the past two decades and we are over the moon to have him back to support our night again. ~ DJ Dazee ~ Drum and bass Dj, producer, label owner and broadcaster, Dazee champions a jungle-jump-up hybrid style characterised by the warmth of her “Bristol Sound” roots. Resident for one of the UKs largest dnb brands, Run and a regular player at major events such as Glastonbury, Hospitality, Love Saves The Day and Westfest, Dazee has relentlessly pursued her jungle campaign on airwaves and dance floors across the globe for three decades. Her fluid and musical DJ style with signature rolling bass, stepper style breaks and sample-based motivs have kept her in demand with fitness brands and world class stages alike and in addition to managing her label, Dazee has an ever-growing catalogue of her own productions and colabs. ~ MC Joe Peng ~ Joe Peng is not only a legend from the dawn of rave and the Tape Pack era, he is lead vocalist and founder member of Laidblak, Bristol's most loved roots band. Known for their vibing mixture of reggae, dub and hip hop, they have continued to grace the biggest stages including major festivals such as Reggae land for two decades. Joe has a regular drive time radio show on SWU fm "playing all that is good in underground muzik" and outside of Laidblak he host's DJ sets for Bunjy and Feel The Reel, with several appearances at this year's Glastonbury. Always true to his roots in the sound system movement, Joe continues to work with Firmly Rooted. Kaotik Cartel and Roots soup. Joe frequently steps up for Ruffneck Ting performances and his inimitable musical style, phenomenal lyrics and witty banter always captivate crowds Laid Blak https://open.spotify.com/artist/3QM7x03GglGPjt0Ori7JAK ~ JEZELDER ~ Bristol based JEZELDER has played at various venues and events across Bristol including Basement45, Thekla, Lost Horizon, Attic Bar, Trinity, The Plough and is the resident of Fight Klub Central. She has also graced the decks at parties as far reaching as Mexico, Norway, and the iconic Ministry of Sound in London. JEZELDER’s style is an eclectic blend of old and new owing to her vast knowledge of dnb. She takes the listener on a musical journey through the realms of liquid, rollers and dancefloor. Not one to be pigeonholed, she is also a multi genre DJ with an array of musical tastes from garage, to Afrobeats, to dancehall. ~ Anonymous Dub Sound ~ Anonymous has been playing reggae music since the 1980’s, also chatting lyrics on the mic. Anonymous Dub Sound was established in 2014 so young, but old in their roots. They play all genres of reggae music, even soul, funk, R & B and hip hop. You can listen to Anonymous on BCFM 93.2fm every Wednesday 9 – 10pm. He's also one of our resident Sober Spaces DJs and we massively appreciate his support for what we do!
