A free night of deep and soulful music with three DJs whose sets move from beats, jazz, funk and soul to disco, house, garage and drum and bass.
On The Beats is back at The Sisters on Friday 13 November, with Soul Mthod, Mr Yip and One Man Posse taking turns on the decks. It's a night of deep and soulful music run by three DJs, selectors or curators whose sets rotate through the evening, so you'll hear each of them take a turn rather than one long set from a single person.
The night is split into two distinct halves. The first part digs into uplifting Beats, Jazzy, Funky, Soulful, Hip Hop, RnB, Broken Beat and Conscious, mixing brand new discoveries with established classics. As the night moves on, the sets shift towards the dancefloor, drawing on Disco, House, Garage and Drum and Bass. MCs are welcome at the DJs' discretion, so there's room for a voice on top of the tracks if the mood takes it there.
It's presented by The Underground Garage, and the whole thing runs from 9pm through to 3am, so it's a long one that carries you from the early, laid-back hours right into the early morning. If you're just in for the first half, you'll get the jazzy, soulful side of things; if you stay on, you'll see it shift into the dancefloor territory. Either way, the three DJs keep rotating, so the sound changes as the night goes on.
