First Wave - Early evening Trance, Progressive House and Melodic Techno

A new early evening trance and techno session in The Vault at Bar Silver.

Running from 5p to 11pm, First Wave is built around a simple idea: to create a regular space for the electronic music community to come together around quality sound, strong atmosphere and the right people.

For this edition, the focus lands on trance, progressive house and melodic techno, with a properly paced musical journey moving from deeper territory into bigger, more euphoric moments as the night unfolds. Expect a clear emphasis on progression, feeling and intent in an intimate, music-led setting.

First Wave is also about platform and community. Alongside established selectors, the project exists to champion some of the best emerging DJs and help strengthen the culture around the music locally. It’s intended as a sanctuary somewhere to reset after the week, lock into the right frequency and find a crowd that’s there for the music first.

Part of the ticket revenue from each event will be donated to the NTIA, in support of the wider nightlife community. With another part of the ticket revenue split with the acts to ensure a fair structure.

Whether this is your whole night or the first move into the weekend, First Wave is about building something people can return to regularly: a consistent space for connection, release and proper electronic music.
