Headfirst Editor's Pick
"The local chameleons are back for unpredictable, forward club sounds under the railway arches. Shmael spins chopped‑and‑screwed electronix and slo‑mo rap, Side Eye boss Sadsugar rattles bass-heavy brain cells with sparring partner Dudeman, whilst Amaia digs deep in a cauldron of sub-driven wax oddities. All profits are heading to Sunduq al Sudan’s to help with their grassroots mutual aid work."

A clubnight held at The Cider Box Tap Room on Friday 13th March. The event starts at 22:00.
After nearly 2 year away, Side Eye comes rumbling back to Bristol with a special showcase of local artists specialising in SE's signature sound. Organic and whirlpooling, covered in micellium and moss - this is truly a return to the roots.
LINE-UP
- shmael
Trust Exercises co-founder and Noodio mainstay, shmael has been quietly grafting the Bristol underground since time. Recognised for his deep dives of bumped up reggaeton, squirming techno, southern drawlers and everything in-between, Ishy comes at his sets with a truly chopped n screwed mentality.
- sadsugar b2b Dudeman
Side Eye head honcho steps up alongside Lisvane co-captain Dudeman for a long awaited b2b of mischevious proportions. Fresh off the release of his debut EP, Dudeman's subterranean jaw-shattering selections alongside sadsugar's signature rhythmic workouts will leave more than a few skulls rattled.
- amaia
At this point, amaia needs no introduction. Bristol's number one all-wax selector expertly navigates the multiple biomes of their dubbed out world, painstakingly built by their immense record collection. Expect transcendence in every sense of the word.
Doors close at 23:30pm - early entry advised.
