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.

“You know him. He’s 'That Guy From The Thing'. The face and voice behind some of UK bass music’s most recognisable moments. For years, audiences have known the face and the voice. Now, Cunning MC has stepped forward with a project that puts his own artistic identity front and centre. Working with Sammy Virji on ‘Slazenger’, Champion on ‘That Guy From The Thing’ and more, he’s been channeling a high-energy blend of UKG and bassline. On Saturday 26th September, he takes over our renowned 360° room at Clock Factory for a debut headline Bristol show. Limited tickets start from just £5 and are on sale now.”
