About this event

A much-anticipated debut link-up between Dub Shack and Funky Drummer at the legendary Yellow Arch Studios.

Funky Drummer celebrates its 4th birthday, while Dub Shack approaches its 10th. The event also marks Dub Shack’s return to its old stomping ground after nearly seven years...

Together we present a night that a takes you on a journey from the roots of the dance to sound-system infused UK Bass Music. We welcome a very special live band, guest DJs & two heavyweight sound systems; Bosun & Comity.

Lineup:

- League Of Rebelz (live) - Headlining our main room, the League of Rebelz are an explosively rising UK roots‑reggae band from East London. Drawing inspiration from reggae, they've crafted a contemporary yet deeply rooted sound that pays homage to the genre’s pioneers while pushing it forward with fresh energy and perspective. From supporting the Wailers to playing at festivals like Boomtown & Shambala and releasing their debut album in July 2026, they are poised to make waves globally. We welcome their unmatched stage energy and sharp style to the Dub Shack x Funky Drummer.

- Joe Sonar B2B Rose Holland -

JOE SONAR is the brand new UK Bass music project from Bristol-based artist and producer Joe Baker, formerly known as KREED. His sonics have taken the UK sound system scene by storm, with collaborations alongside Gardna, Eva Lazarus, Rider Shafique, Killa P and many more, alongside performances at Glastonbury and Boomtown + producing the music for Boomtown's spectacular opening and closing ceremonies. With his new alias, Joe explores the depths of UK Bass, taking influence from Neo Soul, Afrobeats, Psychedelia and experimental styles from across the globe. In the later hours, Joe Sonar will B2B with Rose Holland for 1.5h of low end driven dance music.

- Rose Holland - The brand new project from the Bristol based producer FKA Dutchie. A booking LONG in the making. A regular at festivals like Boomtown, Shambala & Glastonbury, her DJ sets span garage, acid breaks, broken beat, soul, jungle and UK funky, drawing on a broad musical palette. Her debut single Patience/Pressure received widespread support from BBC Radio 1, 6Music, Rinse FM and Jazz FM, while she also holds a monthly residency on SWU FM. Her B2B with Joe Sonar is going to test Bosun Soundsystem ;)

- Sufi Rebel - Sufi Rebel is a female-led roots-dub and dancehall sound shaped by sound-system culture and its traditions of spirituality and resistance. Formed through years around sound systems, sessions are built for both movement and message. Original productions sit alongside carefully chosen selections that honour the greats of roots, dub, and dancehall. Frequent collaborator with Jam Jam sound that absolutely smashed Shambala Festival's Roots Corner this year.
