Next Event 10th April

NRFTW celebrates 3 incredible years of pioneering the live underground dance music scene in the UK.

Over the past 3 years we’ve played host to over 40 of the UK and Europe’s hottest rising stars and festival favourites focussing on left of center dnb & breaks live acts.

Our third birthday party is set to be an incredible show with live music from ZEJ, Step 13 and Dead Silence, all new festival décor, projections from Oddscene, a fat drinks promotion, fancy dress shenanigans, what promises to be a tearing dj set from our special guest Moving Fusion (RAM records) and residents Mantra, Double O (Rupture) and Ren (DSS), all of this t’umping out on the Rhythm Factory’s new 10k Turbosound System !

We’ll be kicking off the night with Dubstep from live band Zej who made their name last year by ripping up the dance floor on the festival circuit, with a legendary set at the Secret Garden Party  "ZeJ's real power is in their live production and improvisational performance, the duo's multi sensorial, mind bending show, combining live electronic drums and bass with the effervescent synthesis and live gadgetry, provides an experience impossible to ignore... "

Step 13 are ‘a shot in the arm of the UK’s live dance scene,  a heady mix of dnb breaks, powerful rhythms and rock ‘n’ roll attitude’, the band have stormed venues throughout the country as well as mashing up festivals such as Glastonbury, Sunrise and Waveform. Comprising 100% live drums, floorshaking bass, acid guitar, keyboard riffery and synth madness, coupled with exuberant ragamuffin vocals of MC Ishu and the enchanting soulful divaism of Lucy Randell; Step 13 are guaranteed party bangers.

Dead Silence:  'Blistering, eardrum-perforating Drum 'n' Bass thrashed on real live instruments by a band who make Red Snapper sound like Craig David by comparison. Bass-heavy, brooding, bombastic and raw as botulism'  www.dogsonacid.com

Sold yet ??  well if not read on ……… At home in London and across Europe their 'eerie post-punk-jungle bangers' have been rocking clubs and festivals where they have played along side legends, including Andy C, Pendulum, Adrian Sherwood and the Orb.  DSS have several 12 inch vinyl releases under their belt, have been remixed by Ray Keith, and are currently recording their debut album.

And if that’s not enough for you our resident djs Warlock, Itchi, Bashment Bish, Henry G and Keir Royale  will be rockin’ the back bar with a brew of bubbling basslines for you to whine your waist to.
