High Tide continue to rule the waves for cutting edge dance music on The Solent, furthering their game by hooking in an arsenal of in demand selectors to clubbing hotspot Switch on Saturday 21st February and Saturday 7th March

Bringing a dark tinge of groove heavy bass rumblings to the table, Shadow Child heads up trio of Food Music compatriots on the 21st. Formerly a side project of Dave Spoon, commanding the dance floor focused moniker is now his primary focus, and judging by his Essential Mix below, you'll unquestionably see why. 

Accelerating the party propensities, dynamic duo Kry Wolf take to the controls. They'll justify why their sound's been touted as one of the freshest on the block and they'll be bolstered by female tandem Eli and Fur, concluding a solid night of raving. Grab your tickets here.

Moving over to the next date, James Zabiela permeates the club space with his singular sound scape on March 7th. Revered for his technical proficiency behind the decks, Zabiela interlocks robust house and techno with a cosmic aesthetic, evidenced at the peak of his powers in the mix above.

Bolstering Zabiela's presence is Defected kingpin Cristoph. Influenced from the sounds of Chicago and Detroit, the Geordie selector has firmly positioned himself as a DJ who cannot be ignored, and if his track record of releasing on a number of key house imprints is anything to go by then neither can his appearance on the South Coast. Tickets for that here
