Rene Wise taking over The Island for Late Delivery: Rene Wise sets the tone for Friday in Bristol. Known for his deep, hypnotic techno, Wise is joined by Harpriya, AæE, and Howie Booth for a lineup that feels tailored for heads who want to lose themselves in tight, rolling grooves. If you’re looking for where the late-night energy starts, this is it.
Over at Strange Brew, the double bill of Deep Street x Strange Brew with Marcellus Pittman and Wally Badarou + ddwy + Andy Payback offers a more eclectic dive into house and disco. Marcellus Pittman leads the first session, his Detroit-rooted selections promising soulful depth and leftfield rhythms, supported by Jay L and Andy Mac. Later in the evening, Wally Badarou brings his signature touch, blending synth-heavy funk with disco textures, alongside Ddwy’s hypnotic grooves.
For those chasing something raw and gritty, Steptwice & Intaception: Detroit In Effect & More [Powered by Firmly Rooted] at The Trinity Centre is unmissable. Detroit In Effect delivers a bold mix of electro and ghetto tech, with Jpeg 3 bringing additional intensity to the room. This one feels like the night’s wildcard—a space where the boundaries of dance music blur in the best way.
FAGBUTT: HELL DISCO with Prosumer & Sue Veneers at The Loco Klub balances high-energy with underground flair. Prosumer’s deep disco cuts pair perfectly with Sue Veneers’ offbeat, theatrical approach, making this a night that’s as much about the atmosphere as the music.
Finally, drum & bass fans should head to Lakota for Canvas presents: Nectax. Nectax holds down the decks for a heavier, bass-driven close to the evening, leaning into dubstep textures for a full-spectrum low-end workout.
The full lineup for Bristol tomorrow is at all Bristol events.
