Venue: The Attic, 50 New Wakefield Street, Manchester, M1 5NP.

D A M U one of the most interesting prospects thrown up by the ongoing bass music revolution. The young producer blends UK underground sounds with more obscure influences, allowing tropical flavours to melt into sub-bass pressure, with fantastic results his latest album was widely praised as one of the freshest slices of UK bass music this year.
(Dont Panic Magazine)

Nominated best breakthrough producer of the year 2011 (Best of British Awards 2011).Expect a full hour of bass-pumping, foot-stomping absolute crackers from a name that youll be seeing more and more of.

T H E S U L T A N - he's quickly begun to take a firm foothold in the up-and-coming scene over the last year or so, playing the very best of Reggae/Hip Hop/Dubstep/House/Drum n Bass/Jungle to an ever growing fan base. Featuring on MistaJams shows and winner of Kiss Fms Next Generation Takeover, The Sultan has played alongside Benny Page, Mungos hifi, Kenny Ken, Brockie and Top Cat to name a few. Any Bristolians might recall his blinding B2B with Ronni Size and many mancunians will have seen him smashing Hit&Run and other local nights.
We are honoured that The Sultan will be with us every week at the Attic to really bring out your BASSFACE and keep you comin back for your weekly dose.

D J A G R O A N D R O T T E N S C O U N D R E L All the way from the south coast, DJ Agro is leaving the Brighton cobbles, headed northbound for the FIRST TIME EVER to ensure there is no bass-music-stone left unturned. If youve ever ventured down South, you might have caught him at Auxillary, Karnarge, Bass Hertz, Sour Milk, Bass-Jam, Sub-Liminal, Legion of Bass, Strictly Drums, Goonie Island, maybe even at Bestival or V-DUB Festival and if you havent, dont miss out again! Having warmed up the party people for some HUGE headline DJs & MCs: TC & Jakes, Hatcha, N-type, Rodney P & Skitz, Fatman D, DJ Hazard, MC Fearless, Eksman, Jayden, and Logan D to name a few (and we really mean that, theres too many to list), its only a matter of time before he takes off with releases on Blue Cheese, Dub Cartel and UK DNB having snapped up some of his latest. From the label that brought you Dismantle, Gangoon Dubz now brings you Agro. Accompanied by his prodigy and future star in the making, Rotten Scoundrel, the pair will be serving up their specialty of Drum & Bass, Jungle, Dub-step and Grime, expect to be shoving it in your BASSFACE.
