Burning Bug plays a soundsystem session at The Primrose in Leeds.
Burning Bug Soundsystem are taking over The Primrose on Friday 6 November, for a soundsystem session that puts the rig right at the centre of the night. If you're not familiar with the format, a soundsystem session isn't a gig in the usual sense — there's no band on stage playing a set. Instead, the focus is on the sound system itself, with the selectors controlling the decks and the speakers doing the heavy lifting. It's about the physical weight of the bass and the way the room carries it, rather than a performance to watch from a distance.
Burning Bug are the sole feature on the bill, so the whole evening is their territory. They'll be working the decks throughout, keeping the session going from start to finish. Because it's a soundsystem night, the music is played through a rig built for it, which means the low end hits a bit harder and the sound fills the space in a way a standard PA doesn't quite manage. It's the kind of night that works best when you're in the room rather than listening from the back.
