A clubnight held at Cosies on Saturday 17th August. The event starts at 22:00.


"Border Control" epitomizes an event wherein DJs seamlessly engage in uninterrupted back-to-back performances, harmoniously traversing the uncharted territories of music genres. Crafted by No Nation, the event's progenitor, this format facilitates extensive sonic exploration, affording the freedom to transcend traditional genre boundaries.


For 25 years, Beau Selecter has been a dedicated advocate for the UK music scene. Starting with raves at Hereford's Crystal Rooms in 1998 and Steart Beach in 2000, he founded the Ultraviolent sound system and radio station, hosting illegal raves in the Forest of Dean. In 2005, he joined the Notting Hill Carnival's Punishment Soundsystem, later becoming Kaotik Soundsystem, and supported artists like Goldie and Pendulum at a Hereford club.

Now based in Bristol, Beau is a key figure in the local Jungle scene, DJing at Vinyl Destination, Inna Di Jungle, and The FODing Collective. In 2023, he co-founded Terminal Breaks with GAIJINN, focusing on darker Techno. We anticipate his return to Cosies prior to his debut release on Dispatch Recordings.

Entry requirements: 18+
