Accompanying the two headliners will be legendary DJ, record producer and co-founder of RAM Records, Andy C. A pioneering force in the drum & bass genre, Andy will be joined by Flava D, Rude Kid and BBC Radio 1’s Friction keeping things moving with the party long into the early hours after the bikes and boards have been put down.
