💥ARTIST SPOTLIGHT - REA 💥

Rea is a 140-160 producer and DJ who has been making a name for herself in the Bristol music scene over the past few years. With residencies at Duckland, Redacted, Daytimers, Partuma Audio, Kafka Radio, and USB Bristol it's clear that she's in high demand. She's performed at many events and festivals including Boomtown last year, honing her craft along the way. Her usual style of production is breakbeat / footwork stuff, but she'll be taking things back to where she started for BTB, bring you a set full of her best DNB. We cant wait to welcome her to the stage!

💥Artist Spotlight - HOLLIE-MAY 💥

Hollie-May resists your definitions. She’s not a sweet, young thing spinning on the decks for your viewing pleasure. She’s not a novelty act added to a bill in an industry heavily dominated by men. She’s not a female DJ, she’s a DJ, an artist, and an activist. She’s unafraid to push past boundaries and defy the typical. Having joined the Sofa Sound Bristol family, she's been working on diversity within the industry and working hard behind the scenes to help support artists' mental health.
As such, her sound doesn’t fit your expectations, it rumbles you; bold and uncompromising, deep and rolling with mercurial arcs and twists, creating a unique journey through the mix.
Authenticity is what you should expect when Hollie-may steps upon the decks!

💥Artist Spotlight - ZEROZERO💥

We are incredibly excited to welcome one-half of the talented duo ZeroZero at our first event! 🎉🎉
With releases on labels such as; Ram, CIA, Dispatch, Sofa Sound, Spearhead, and many more, they’ve been making a name for themselves as versatile producers, able to conjure up the funkiest beats and dirtiest basslines across the DNB spectrum. Their sound is heavily influenced by their love for funk, deep basslines, technical sound design, and the musicality you’d expect from a duo with a background in playing live instruments.
