Once again 112-116 clutch a clubbing conglomerate for the weekend with an ear shredding assault.

Friday sees the return of Metropolis for their monthly residency with a staggeringly scary jungle onslaught, and Saturday sees more action from the crème de la crème of European house and techno stalwarts. Exceedingly good, as some cake aficionado would no doubt say.

Metropolis are certified heavyweights for the drum n bass scene in the north, and this line-up is typical of their unrelenting strength in the genre. Valve sound system bad boys Dillinja and Lemon D are in the house, the tag team who do grimy like no other. Simply the heaviest deebee on the planet, they’re speaker shredding status remains undimmed. Subfocus, the multi talented DJ/Producer who continues to wow crowds on the back of Andy C’s tutelage and Ram records endorsed finery joins Dutch powerhouses Noisia and the soulful don Nu:Tone, whilst Metropolis bring the sickness with their own Tonn piper and MC DRS.

One night later, it’s the turn of the brutality to shift unflinchingly from scattershot breakbeat led madness to the power slam of four four grooves. Swedish techno baron Adam Beyer is headlining, and a man completely at the cusp of the modern rave resurgence. His stripped back productions showcase a man constantly at the avant-garde of electronica’s latest experiments, bristling with powerful bass lines and evocative, cunning riffs. Someone else straddling the pinnacle is Jamie Jones, a figure shrouded in hype and more importantly enough talent to rise above it convincingly.

He’s joined by hector, the lynchpin of the UK’s most forward thinking vinyl emporium Phonica and a man possessing a glee ridden attachment to the nuances of jack’s groove.
