We are back at The Berkeley Suite this Saturday with 3 of our favourite DJs - Luxe, DJ_2button and Pigeon Steve.

RA Pick of the night: “A trio of DJs as hard to define as they are skilful. Expect sci-fi coded techno, yoga-worthy ambient, swampy chuggers and everything in between.”

Unique, innovative, refreshing – three words greatly overused by the electronic music commentariat, PR pen pushers and marketing lackeys. For some artis...

We are back at the The Berkeley Suite on Sat 12 October with OK Williams all night long :)

Bringing back one of favourite guests, OK Williams - this time from doors open til the lights come on!

Kanyin, known by her moniker OK Williams, was the first DJ we brought to The Berkeley Suite after lockdown, and tore the roof off the place. This is hardly a rarity, it's commonplace to hear that the esteemed NTS host was the highlight of the party or weekend.

Expect freeform blends of bassy floor-busting tracks live alongside blissful synth-heavy house, with techno, jungle and electro also weaved into the mix. Everything Williams plays is intentional and shining with personality. Her multifaceted approach has amassed a global network of fans, seeing her play across the world in some of the most loved clubs around, and tuning into her regular NTS show, a stalwart of the station.

Given the above, we thought best to hand her the keys - catch her for a very rare open to close set this side of the border.

SATURDAY NIGHT!

BIG DUBBY BASS BUSINESS WITH AL WOOTTON (LIVE) AND MIA KODEN (DJ)

Putting The Berkeley Suite sound system through its paces with two of the best UK talents available.

More details for those unacquainted:

In the biz since 2009, Al Wootton's contribution to UK dance music is hard to understate. Originally operating under the Deadboy moniker with underground hits on the likes of Glasgow's own Numbers, Al has an impressive and prolific back catalogue, with releases on Livity Sound and Optimo Music, plus an array of EPs on his own label, Trule, which has also been host to peers such as Pugilist, Big Hands and Priori. His music is full of dub elements and heavy bass-workouts, spanning the myriad of stylings that make up UK techno and UK soundsystem music. Organic, original, with a dance-floor focused that feels fresh and never contrived. Given his knack for conjuring up top-quality club fare, we're delighted to have him at The Berkeley Suite for an ultra rare live set.

Mia Koden aka Sancha Ndeko (she/her) is a South London-based South Sudanese and British music producer and DJ. Initially growing up in Ghana and Nigeria soundtracked by her parents' lively stash of music from across the African continent and beyond, her formative years back in the UK had frequent soundsystem pilgrimages to spaces where roots reggae, drum & bass and dubstep could be heard. Having made serious waves within the highly acclaimed duo Sicaria Sound with their penchant for forward-thinking 140BPM, Ndeko’s new alias brings along the same infectious energy and bass-and-percs-heavy sensibilities with her own exciting deviations. In March 2023 her much anticipated debut release landed, the two tracker ‘Hot Take / I Did’, dipping into a familiar palette from her foundational Sicaria Sound days but with a fresh injection of 2-step, UK steppas, electro and dubbier realms. Her latest EP for Illian Tape **slaps** and has been lauded by critics, taste-makers and ravers alike for it's futuristic take on UK club fare, with a darker take on grime and dubstep textures. BIG mixes for Illian Tape, the BBC and for Keep Hush have only solidified her reputation as an unmissable DJ - so don't miss this chance to see her in the intimate surroundings of the Berkeley Suite

THE DJS:

PARRIS

Parris is a producer, DJ and label owner whose creative evolution reflects a decade inside the engine room of UK club music. Taking notes and lessons from the best parties, labels and record shops of the 2010s, Parris’ genre-fluid style takes the weight and pressure of sound system styles, combining them with house and techno sensibilities to create a unique take on the breadth of UK dance music. His talents have been not gone unnoticed, with releases on the likes of The Trilogy Tapes, Idle Hands and Hemlock. His collaborative outlet with Call Super for their joint productions, Can You Feel The Sun, has put out some of our favourite releases of the last 3 years. Not limited to the UK, the Hackney born artist has gone from the sweatboxes of London to the best festivals and clubs around the world, and we are very happy to add The Berkeley Suite to the list.

LUPINI

We’ve always been fans of community radio, so Lupini is well placed to impress, being the station manager of Melodic Distraction, NTS hero, and regular on Netil. A mainstay, she’s been amiably described as “the administrator of the Liverpool music scene”. Already a northern favourite, her knowledge and expertise has led to her being a fast rising star in the UK club circuit. She stole the show for our friends over at EHFM in Edinburgh, and we’re betting on her doing the same for us for her first Glasgow gig.

NURSE
Co-founder and resident DJ, Nurse takes the long Megabus up from London to play you his favourite stylings. Long overdue!
