Headliners
Leftlow
Deep, weighty, and precision-crafted Leftlow brings a sound rooted in the dubstep continuum but unafraid to venture into experimental and atmospheric territory. With releases on Exit Records, Juan Forte, and their own imprint, Leftlow’s music explores low-end theory through dubwise minimalism, sparse rhythms, and late-night tension. Their Distractions mini‑LP stands as a powerful blend of industrial dubstep and reflective halfstep, while mixes and DJ sets show their dedication to mood, pacing, and sonic space. For fans of the deeper end of the bass spectrum, Leftlow is a must-watch presence.
Fearless Dread
London-based Fearless Dread have become a defining voice in the modern dubstep underground where deep pressure, space, and minimalism converge. Known for their Rinse FM residency and standout releases like Violator / New Horizons and the Lost Dubs series, they champion the new school meets old school 140 aesthetic. Their sound blends dubwise foundations with crisp production and low-end weight, crafting tense, stripped-back rollers made for heads-down sessions and proper systems. With roots in dubstep but reach into grime and bass, Fearless Dread are essential figures pushing the deeper strain of UK sound system music forward.
Nancy June
A rising force in the UK underground, Nancy June is a selector who moves effortlessly across dubstep, garage, grime, and broken club rhythms always led by instinct, weight, and a deep-rooted connection to sound system culture. A regular fixture on the London circuit, Nancy holds a residency on Rinse FM, and has recently delivered standout sets at Boomtown Festival on the Sublab stage, as well as an electrifying B2B with Rizla Teeth on the Buntai Boat Party at Outlook origins Festival.
Her recent Balamii session alongside Slikie and SGT Pokes further cements her reputation as a serious selector, capable of holding her own alongside some of the scene’s most respected figures. Whether she’s rolling through 140, flipping into broken UKG, or teasing grime and percussive techno, Nancy’s sets are known for their depth, energy, and movement raw, atmospheric, and always rooted in bass.
A selector steadily building her reputation across the UK underground, Nancy June is known for weaving together dark, emotive threads of dubstep, garage, grime, and broken techno. Her sets, shaped by years of digging and radio residencies, bridge the foundational 140 energy with forward-thinking rhythms and deep textures. With performances at key London venues like Corsica Studios and The Cause for Juan Forte, Nancy brings a distinct feel to every session moody but vibrant, bass-heavy but never one-dimensional. Expect rolling percussion, shadowy atmospheres, and an uncompromising approach to sound.
