Ruf Dug
Boiler Room DJs

Manchester local and in-house favourite Ruf Dug takes to the BR stage once again. Ruf Dug is a fierce DJ who regularly appears on NTS Radio as a guest of the likes of Hessle Audio and Bradley Zero and his tunes often get played by Ben UFO, Moodymann, Craig Richards and many other international tastemakers. Producing music aimed squarely at the club, Ruf Dug prides himself on bringing “analogue jams for the heads”; his sets culminating in a warped melting pot of dark house and dreamy disco. Managing to side-step the cheesy trappings of Balearic while retaining the ability to transport his partygoers to another time and space.

Earl Jeffers aka Chesus
Boiler Room DJs

This time around, Cardiff boy Chesus (aka Earl Jeffers) takes the stage for his BR debut. Having initially taken an array of influences from his father's varied record collection and his brother, a jungle DJ; Jeffers clocked in hours of hip-hop and garage experience before bringing his now straight-shooting strain of house to labels such as Gerd’s 4Lux and Local Talk, Doc Daneeka’s Ten Thousand Yen and Addison Grooves’ Lost in Translation. His ever-growing knowledge means his banging sets are never locked into a particular style.

Plastician & J Cush
Boiler Room DJs

3rd Sept
The Victoria, Mile End, London

This time around, Plastician and J Cush are taking the London Sundown stage alongside Boiler Room regulars. Plastician (born Chris Reed in Croydon) has been a purveyor of British bass culture since 2002. As well as production responsibilities with Wiley, Skepta and JME (to name a few), his solo efforts have seen him building a unique bridge between grime and dubstep while hosting shows on BBC Radio 1 and Rinse FM. He was also one of the first residents at London's staple, bass-fuelled club night, FWD>>. Having grown up in both NYC and London, J-Cush (born Jamie Imanian-Friedman) has been blazing trails with Lit City Trax since 2012, after starting the imprint with DJ Spinn and Rashad. After initially repping the sounds of Chicago footwork and juke, J-Cush has looked outward to the sounds of grime, kuduro and beyond. He has created club-meets-grime-meets-hip-hop as part of forward-looking production quartet Future Brown, as well blessing the airwaves of Rinse FM on a weekly basis.

Bambooman
KMAH Radio DJs
Boiler Room DJs

9th Sept
Belgrave Roof Terrace, Leeds

Our next late-summer beatdown pulls up in Leeds. Heading it up is Bambooman: a young gun who's profile has been steadily snowballing for the last few – in no small part due to a string of killer EPs on Sonic Router and head-turning support gigs to the likes of Daedelus and Samiyam. He's joined by the local champs at KMAH Radio – the NTS of the North. Add in our very own BR residents, a floozy of Magners and free BBQ and we're all made up. RSVP live now – don't sleep.

Mark E
Boiler Room DJs

For the last in our UK series with Magners, we're dropping anchor in Birmingham to celebrate one of the city's long-serving heroes –– Mark E. When the Midlands' capital was being defined by the brutalist techno of Regis and Surgeon well over 15 years ago, Mr. E became the city's feted patron of lush, chugging house and slo-mo disco. And though Mark has a deep catalogue of releases to his name (his wonderful re-edits collection is noteworthy on its own), his mixes and live sets are the stuff we keep coming back to. Patient, sweeping journeys into slow-motion house, rare soul and R&B edits – they cover it all. Flanked by our very own BR family DJs, he's the perfect gentleman to close out the series. RSVP is now live – you'd be a fool to miss.
