Bristol's Garage Scene

Garage music is experiencing a renaissance period in Bristol right now. The popularity of dubstep has given rise to a new breed of garage enthusiast keen to explore both the genre's roots and its modern incarnations.

UK funky has taken the mantle of garage and added grime elements and vocals to bring the sound up date and into today's electro-centric party landscape. Contemporary garage and UK funky often finds it's way into sets from alternative dubstep djs at Bristol dubstep nights like Apple Pips, Donuts and Crazy Legs.

Deep Street only have themselves to beat, bringing another hero of Chi house-story to rock the Brew’s mind, body and soul. Glenn Underground’s vintage traxx birthed the deep house blueprint, serving as future parables for all jazzed-out jackin' rhythms to come. This one is gonna get reeeeeal spiritual FFO: Larry Heard, Ron Hardy, Omar S, Rick Wilhite. Deep Street x Strange Brew w/ Glenn Underground at Strange Brew.

Prepare to get schooled by one of the biggest legends in the game: DJ Nature aka DJ Milo of Bristol's era-defining Wild Bunch posse. Decades on, his selections remain as soulful as ever… gliding through bass-soaked deep house, punk, hip-hop, jazz, dub and beyond. No nostalgia trip here, just the real deal from someone who helped write the rulebook! DJ Nature at The Love Inn.

Proper community happenings in the beating dub heart of St Pauls! Powered by the almighty Mexico-via-Italy Bass Revelation rig; this is set to be an epic session deploying HQ digi-dub pressure, technoid steppas and enough low-end vibrations to shake both the mind and the spine. Rising Yard at Kuumba Centre.

Rob Smith has been etched into Bristol’s musical lore for as long as we can remember. From Smith & Mighty to RSD, that Pretty Bright Light percy was the soundtrack of the golden-era dubstep days. Trust Exercises are cramming a giant into the Cider Box, with Timedance’s Bruce dishing out his dubwise crud alongside Amaia’s wall-shaking deep digs on wax. Absolutely ’uuuge! Trust Exercises Presents: RSD / Bruce / Amaia / Dom Carlo + Axle / Kutchi at The Cider Box Tap Room.
