Every Tuesday for the past four years the Split DJs have been hosting a free shakedown at Cab Vol for Edinburgh's midweek clubbers. Shadowskills and the Edinburgh:Bassed Collective control the main room, with MC Atomic, Sammy Peeps, Monterey Jack and DJ Believe rinsing out the heaviest in drum & bass and breaks alongside guests from hip-hop labels like Local Product. The back room is run by Split founder Pyz, who favours an eclectic mix of slinky electro and upfront techno from a rotating team of residents such as Ingen, The Retard Playboy and Fresh Air. Despite being a night that could easily transfer to a weekend slot and have no problem charging for entry and still filling up, Split sticks to its founding principles and refuses to sell out - it's strictly a Tuesday night affair, and it's always free, all night, for everyone.

  • Truly a great night, always a pleasure to DJ there. Actually its Calaco Jack not Monterey Jack!
    Next playing there on 13th October 09 alongside fellow Symbiosis DJ Alcane and Nebulus (Critical, Sound Artillery, Tech Noir). Cant wait!
