The Drum and Bass Curriculum - September
Jungle Nation comes to visit bringing with it Full Cycle Records' DJ Die
| 08 Sep 2007
Luckily we've not really needed to bother with Summer this year and in turn that has given us a lot more time think about which nightclubs are going to mean the most to us this winter. September is the time to be doing that trial run and we think that you should be taking on as much research as possible, so to help in your quest, here are some of the highlights coming up this month.
Ok, so /Slashdot. at The Hive (Edinburgh) are stealing the show in Edinburgh with shows on 1, 8, 15, 22 and 29 September... whooo! Alternating between breaks and drum and bass and with healthy line-ups all the way (11pm-3am, £5). In addition, new club Siren also frequents The Hive every Thursday, again mixing breaks and d&b alongside many other weird and wonderful sounds (11pm-3am, free).
Dundee is in for a major treat when Jungle Nation comes to visit bringing with it Full Cycle Records' DJ Die to the Reading Rooms on 14 Sept (£7, 10.30pm–2.30am), and what a show it will be. Downstairs at the Art School, Glasgow sees major dubstep innovator Benny Ill breaking out the bass also on 14 Sept (9pm-3am, £tbc). A beefed-up sound system and the promise of some classics should have you on the edge of your seat. Red Alert returns to Glasgow on 21 Sept to club Baccus with residents Alcane, JL Boco and Mossco. Entry is £1 all night, what a deal! And finally, Volume is back at club Ego Edinburgh on 29 Sept for a night of hip-hop, grime, dubstep and drum and bass. Residents Profisee and Termite will be tuning up the ones and twos and we are promised some further special guests and live MCs. So I don't know what it is your waiting for, go forth and partake in some new nights, one-offs and old favourites. A mission for September which should put you one step ahead in the quest for breakbeat knowledge. [Jonny Ogg]
