Friday 4th May
Return To The Future
The incredible and highly adored Seth Troxler drops by to show you why, in accordance with Mayan prophecy, Seth Troxler was, in fact, a gift to Detroit techno from intergalactic house demigods from the future. He's joined by Tale of Us, Crosstown Rebel signing Fur Coat and Luca C for what will undoubtedly be a sold out, sizzling party.

Saturday 5th May
Dollop presents Lone Galaxy Garden Album Launch
Lone launches his latest album 'Galaxy Garden' - further delving into faster-paced styles which explore upfront Detroit techno and Chicago house. He does of course maintin his signature cinematic overtures. Check out the album trailer here. dollop have been smashing it - the last one headed up by Rustie - was a belter. This one looks equally fabulous, with the endlessly experimental Illum Sphere joining Nightwave and Neon Jung. Highly recommended for late night sounds.

Saturday 5th May
Unwanted present Washerman and Milton Jackson
The Unwanted Family host an intimate warehouse event this Saturday along with two of house and techno's finest talents, Washerman and Milton Jackson. Both producers have released highly acclaimed albums and EPs across several of the genres top labels including Freerange, Silver Network, Quintessential, Dark Energy, and Drumpoet. This is shaping up to be one of the dark horses of the bank holiday schedule. Recommended.

Sunday 6th May
Desolat and 2020Vision
An 18 hour summer bank holiday session from Loco Dice led Desolate and Ralph Lawson's 2020Vision? Erm.... YEP! It begins in the day, outside, with the first part running from midday to 10pm on a secret outdoor terrace, until the music takes a darker, deeper turn and everyone moves inside to continue the smashdown. Artist wise it's tasty, with the two label bosses joined by a stellar cast: Martin Buttrich will play a live set, new 2020 signings PBR Streetgang will showcase their warm-hearted disco house and The Martinez Brothers spin their groovy house and tech.

Sunday 6th May
Colony and Scand
Colony and Scand return to take care of bank holiday duties at Rhythm Factory. As we've come to expect from these guys, the line-ups tick all the right boxes: with Ali Wells aka Perc and Ashley Burchett aka Phase showing you how to jack the funk in the Colony Room, while Scand bring rave warrior Billy Nasty and Rephlex 1210 wizard DMX Krew to room two. It's a criminally skimpy £5 for this bumper crop of driving DJs, so get bloody well involved.
