Headfirst Editor's Pick
"Easton’s answer to the Eden project: the Black Swan comes fitted with Sinai System and a ten-tonne line-up takeover. Ben UFO, Dubkasm and Yemz all grace the yard for a rare gabba-free mucky duck experience. Fairweather ravers rejoice, there’s a canopy too."

A clubnight held at The Black Swan on Saturday 24th September. The event starts at 15:00.
En Masse returns to Bristol in 2022.
Join us Saturday the 24th at The Black Swan for a day party in the pub garden. We’re so excited to work with such an iconic venue and to offer a daytime event for all Bristol heads.
In honouring the venue’s roots which are strongly intertwined with Bristol’s unique stamp on UK music, the lineup will feature a host of local heroes shelling out dub, reggae, jungle, dancehall, and UK funky. Pioneers in Bristol’s scene; past, present, and future.
And of course the day wouldn’t be complete without Sinai Sound on board to ensure everything sounds absolutely bliss.
We are proud to welcome (in running order):
Chloe Sage
Yemz
Dubkasm
Ben UFO
Chloe Sage is a graduate of the beloved Mix Nights programme and a resident on swu.fm. Chloe is going to be opening up the day with an energetic mix of RnB, UK and US rap, and trap. Heat from the get.
Yemz continues to bring the party with a range of steppers, spanning UK funky, afrobeat, dancehall and jungle. We recommend checking out Yemz’s mix for Club Djembe for a warm up - there is a joy and element of fun in all that Yemz plays out.
Dubkasm - DJ Stryda and Digistep - are Bristol icons and titans of roots reggae and dub sound. The duo’s set features a blend of live instrumentalisation and rich, powerful, low end textures. Finely tuned through Sinai’s stacks, this is going to be massive.
Ben UFO is probably one of our most favourite DJ’s ever. Having honed his skills in early dubstep and drum n bass, Ben UFO has acquired a reputation as one of dance music’s most daring and wide-ranging selectors. His influence and dedication to the scene cannot be denied, as Ben never ceases to captivate listeners. We cannot wait for this.
Doors open at 15:00, with music running til 22:30.
Limited tickets are available on Headfirst, the rest will be sold on the door. Act fast to make sure you don’t miss out.
