Biodiversity 002 - Bruce (Poorly Knit/Timedance/Hessle Audio), Jidgy B, Joe FM

After a sellout first party at Wharf Chambers, Biodiversity returns for round 2 at Club Eiger. This time we’ll be descending into the murky depths of the twilight zone - once again in aid of Forest Peoples Programme.

Headlining, we have Bruce, who is joining us for his first show in Leeds for a number of years.

After breaking through with a string of EPs on Hessle Audio, the Bristol-based producer has built up a sturdy following over the past decade, with releases on well-respected labels such as Livity Sound, Idle Hands and more recently, his own Poorly Knit.

In 2024 he moved away from all-out dance music, to release a vocal LP on Batu’s Timedance and peform a series of highly regarded live shows. An artist that is constantly evolving and not shy of taking risks, he is now ready to return to the darkness of the club. We can’t wait for him to join us for a set that we are sure will be as eclectic and atmospheric as his standout productions.

Leeds legend Jidgy B has played many a party in our city over the years, most recently spinning on the new Hope House soundsystem for the Cosmic Slop crew. You can expect the perfect warmup to our headliner as she takes over from fellow Alto Radio resident and Biodiversity head honcho Joe FM.

Each of them will be digging deep into their bags for a night of subnautical sounds; from the shallow reefs of the tropics to the depths of the Mariana trench — all in the name of biodiversity.

Dance with purpose.

Once again we are raising money for Forest Peoples Programme, an organisation that supports indigenous and forest people in Biodiversity hotpots to protect and conserve their land. All profits will be going to them to help them continue their amazing work around the world.
