We (a group of FM mega fans that are based in Bristol) wanted to give back and show our support and keep our favourite party alive by, well, putting on a party!

Sadly following a difficult financial period brought about by repeated event cancellations amid the COVID-19 pandemic, increased overheads, a move to a new festival site and the rise in cost of living, our favourite “no frills rave” found itself in a financial crisis after this year’s event.

We will be bringing just a small taster of the festival to Bristol’s infamous venue, Strange Brew with a line up made up of FM residents and DJ’s.

FM regulars you don’t need us to explain but for those who have only heard the rumours, it’s true, it’s not an event to be missed!

Line up
Josey Rebelle
DJ Nature
Iona
EM + STAV

London born DJ, Josey Rebelle has been described by Mixmag as ‘the genre-bending DJ dominating top-tier dancefloors worldwide’ and by iconic style mag The Face as ‘a hero of the UK music scene’. We can confirm this from her legendary closing Friday night set this year at Field Maneuvers. One of our favourite DJs, and a true cross-genre maestro. We're excited to have Josey play again.

Bristol born DJ/producer Milo Johnson (aka DJ Nature) creates soulful, deep house indebted to him spending most of the 90s living in NYC, even though he crafted it on equipment from the 2010s. Johnson's productions have a charming rough edge to them, garnering comparisons to Moodymann, yet his ear for melody is closer to the likes of Larry Heard. Very much like the vibe of his set at FM2018.

iona is a Field Maneuvers resident and Don’t Be Afraid Rinse show host, round earth believer and full time vibe shepherd. Expect tunes to make you dance, make you laugh, pull the bass face and hug your friends.

Bristol scene stalwarts and bona fide DJ power couple, EM + STAV are no strangers to Field Maneuvers and their wonky techno sets always pack heat!
