THIS EVENT IS INCLUDED IN THE FESTIVAL PASS.

After a year’s hiatus, we revisit Trinity Centre, one of Bristol’s most iconic venues. A room built for weight, energy and connection.

Paul St. Hilaire (AKA Tikiman) is a Dominican vocalist and artist with a roots-reggae lyric style, best known for his collaborations with Mark Ernestus & Moritz von Oswald as pioneering dub techno act Rhythm & Sound. Bristol’s Batu is a renowned producer, DJ and founder of Timedance whose approach blends raw UK bass roots with bold, avant-gard and modern design with metallic textures. En Masse will host their first time playing together, paying homage to their roots but with a contemporary twist.

ojoo is a Moroccan-born, Brussels-based DJ and curator renowned for her fearless, genre-blurring mixes. Her sets blend old-school dancehall with its futuristic and distorted mutations, weaving through dub, dembow, reggaetón, grime, illbient and musique concrète. En Masse will mark her Bristol debut!

Shackleton founded the legendary Skull Disco label. He is known for his dark, atmospheric sound that blends dubstep with tribal rhythms and hypnotic percussion with ritualistic and otherworldly ambience. His wide-ranging sound has seen collaborations with Six Organs of Admittance, Holy Tongue, Scotch Rolex, Anika and many more.

A sound artist from Kanagawa, Japan, Saskia explores the deep connections between space, emotion, and music. Now based in the UK, she creates works that move between ambient and rhythmically experimental sound, while also performing live and DJing.

Jurango is a Bristol-based DJ, producer, and radio host known for fusing soundsystem culture with the Hardcore Continuum, house, and techno. His sets are unpredictable yet deeply rooted in the UK’s underground, spanning DIY spaces to major festival stages.
