About this event
After dipping our toes into more ambient pools earlier this year, Testing the Water returns to its clubbier side with three of our faves.\\n\\nFirst off, we’re welcoming Tom Boogizm, aka Rat Heart, aka Shotta Tapes head honcho. A longtime presence in the UK’s weirder dancefloor corners, his sets move between genres with the kind of loose precision that only really makes sense in the room. Whether leaning into bassier sounds or dropping a Mark E. Smith banger, his sets stay raw, playful and uncompromising - a reminder of what DJing can be when you get rid of the bravado and let the music talk.\\n\\nWe're also thrilled to have Aircode back with us for a live set - her first with us since one of our earliest events, back in 2022. With releases scattered across labels such as Alien James and Tobago Tracks, she's mapped out a world that's spacious, textural and gritty, with an instantly recognisable sound palate.\\n\\nLast but not least, local hero and Membrane boss Daksh joins TTW's own girlboss Mag, setting the tone for the night with pressure, patience and perhaps some curveballs. Following stellar sets opening for Lena Wilikens, James K and Introspekt - amongst others - we're excited to hear what he's got in store for us.\\n\\nCome early, stay late, and remember to stay hydrated.\\n200 cap - last entry 03:00.
