On August 22, Crystal Club in West London is set to ignite with the Carnival Special: West London Dub Club x The Original Roast, bringing together two foundational crews for an evening dedicated to the low-end frequencies and relentless rhythms that shaped the UK underground. Stepping up to the decks, Ital Power lay down a foundation of heavyweight dub, deep cuts running through the club’s custom stacks, setting the pace for an uncompromising night. Jungle and drum & bass legacy is front and centre, with titans DJ Brockie, DJ Hype, Kenny Ken, Mantra, Remarc and DJ Ron all bringing their signature approach to rolling edits, breakbeats and rude boy basslines.

The synergy of staunch veterans and scene shapers promises a journey through the full spectrum, seamlessly crossing the divide between roots and rave. Mic duties are in experienced hands, with Blackeye MC, Moose and Navigator providing lyrical fire and carnival energy, driving the crowd and pushing every drop to its limits. Expect high-energy interplay, spontaneous rewinds and crowd-charged euphoria as each artist commands Crystal Club’s dancefloor.

This is a celebration of sound system culture and all things bass, merging the vibes of Notting Hill Carnival with the legacy of UK rave in a rare club encounter. Early tickets recommended; this one will echo long after the final drum roll.
