Bristol-based sadsugar (see also: sadz, shugz) has been sharing their sweet selections across this fine city for the past year or so, whether in the club or on the radio. Avoiding the confines of genre, they’re known for bass-heavy flavours sprinkled with polyrhythmic percussion - with a couple of zesty twists thrown in to taste.
Bristol-based artist Alexisitry has been carving a name for herself across the UK’s club and festival scenes; supporting the likes of Eats Everything, Annie Mac and Partiboi69. With musical-eclecticism placed at the heart of her output, this multi-genre DJ is redefining the sound of the dance.
Alexisitry’s ability to connect with a crowd through her tune selection is exhilarating and effortless. Demonstrating her extensive musical knowledge-base through a compound of both mainstream and underground; Techno, Breaks and Left Field; all the way through to Drum and Bass and Jungle. The only way is up for this blossoming artist.
Chiara Tedeschi aka Ef Kia is an Italian music producer and Dj based in Bristol. She co-founded OwM sound, a label focused on bass music, and Belladonna Collective. Her love for 140 and Dubstep flourished after moving to Bristol in 2018 to study Music Production at BIMM and has led her to hold shows on Noods, Subtle, and Longthrow radio among others
TrES-2B loves creating delicious techno blends and dropping edgy
bangers. TrES-2b is known for high energy and storing solid selections in their back pocket ready to drop at a moments notice. Like the planet, sets are as hot as they are dark, but never too serious.
Originally from Manchester R.Nev, co-founder of break the night and resident on longthrow radio. Responsible for promotion of local emerging artists, she quickly found her place behind the decks, pushing her own vision of electronic music. One of very few local female hard music DJs, R.NEV feels the best above 140bpm, mixing highly energetic electro with powerful techno and rave music.
