Zero [Bangers Only] | Joshua Brooks, Manchester

Zero lands back in the Joshua Brooks basement with his Bangers Only tour.

He's been in strong form. Recent releases on Deadbeats, a DJ Mag HQ Session, and a steady run of bookings across the UK have pushed him into serious territory. His sound moves between bassline, UK bass and drum & bass, all stitched together with the technical detail that's taken him to Glastonbury, Warehouse Project and the final year of Printworks.

There's plenty in the catalogue. Enter The Dragonpassed five million streams. The Scenes EP hit number one on Beatport and Juno within twelve hours. Holy Ghost and the newer collaborations with Kwengface have kept his name circulating across multiple corners of the scene.

The support network is solid too - Holy Goof, Chris Lorenzo, My Nu Leng, TS7, Skepsis and DJ Zinc have all picked up his tracks. Annie Nightingale championed his work on Radio 1, with labels including CruCast, Maraki Records and Bingo Bass backing releases.

This is his second time at Joshua Brooks. The Void-powered basement, low ceilings and tight layout lend themselves to the kind of bassweight Zero specialises in.

Limited capacity. Those who were here last time will know exactly what this room can do.
