After a sell-out first edition, One Out Festival returns for its second year with two new stages, increased capacity, a monster line-up and some very special guests

Hailed as one of the UK’s best new festivals, One Out Festival today unveil their huge line-up and two brand new stages for their much anticipated second edition on Saturday 18th June 2022. Playing across the two main stages at the beautifully green Apps Court Farm in Surrey will be headliners Eats Everything and Skream, alongside Very Special Guest Sam Divine, Dusky, DJ Seinfeld, Melé, Prospa, Latmun, Jasper James, Jamie Roy, Chloé Robinson, Arielle Free, The Menendez Brothers, Amy Elle and more. For the best group, single or VIP ticket deals, head to https://www.oneout.co.uk/book-now before they sell out.

One Out Festival takes place just 35 minutes from London amongst the bends of the Thames River, ancient woodland, undulating green hills and hidden lakes. It is a festival that was proudly diverse and welcoming in its first year and so is a perfect place to getaway from everyday life and plot your own unique musical movie in a beautiful setting. This year it has an increased capacity, with two brand new stages and areas added, kitted out with immersive, high-tech, high-spec gear and of course world class sound systems.

The first of the new stages is the VIP Stage, featuring a festival exclusive takeover from London selectors The Kimono Bros. With a deluxe private bar offering cocktails and festival favourites, the revamped VIP area will be decked out in glam disco décor, immersing those lucky enough to get hold of a VIP ticket in a disco wonderland, with the Kimonos taking to the stage alongside favourites from their weekly residency at Sushi Samba as well as some very special guests including Crazy P [DJ Set], Jess Bays, Griff, Lovra and Nualah.

The second newly added arena is the Secret Stage, which will be hidden and immersed in the Apps Court forest and will only be known to those who look for the clues, head amongst the trees and search it out. It will have its own special line-up revealed soon, but expect a full-on, afters-esque, bells and whistles rave, baggy t-shirts, sweaty hair and high energy sounds that never let up.

The bolstered line-up now includes latest additions such as standout DJ and influential label head Sam Divine, who returns to One Out for a second year as special guest bringing her powerful house sounds; Ninja Tunes artist and master of emotive and melodic sounds DJ Seinfeld, plus UK tech house heavyweights Prospa and Latmun, Scottish favourites Jasper James and Jamie Roy and rising star AmyElle.

These come on top of Bristol’s always party-starting Eats Everything, the electric and eclectic bass boss Skream, plus festival favourites Dusky, Melé, Chloé Robinson, Arielle Free and the ever popular The Menendez Brothers. As well as these names, the trusty residents will be on hand to add their own fuel to the fire and include Dale Castell, Jakkob, Ben Read, Chris Thomas b2b Dez and Sir Francis.

The final countdown is now on for One Out Festival, the most exciting and explosive new festival anywhere in the UK.

ALLOVER
A structure backed by Panda Events & NSG Production, Allover is a subsidiary that brings together Electronic Beaches and the Crossover festival, as well as their variations. Allover develops, through a regional network combining territoriality and seasonality, high added value brand universes that come in several formats (Villa Plages, Croisieres Electroniques, Crossover Summer, Crossover live, etc.).
 
Les Plages Electroniques
Les Plages Electroniques, the first edition of which took place in 2006, has evolved in terms of both content and format in 15 years. Initially, the concept developed with the city of Cannes was to create a summer and festive event made up of 5 dates scattered throughout the summer, offering 5 styles of electronic music, at €5, on the beach of the Palais Des Festivals. After the meteoric success of the formula, the model evolved in 2015 towards a format closer to classic festivals by grouping the event over 3 days. Hardly marked following the Nice attacks in 2016 and 2020 during the Covid crisis, the Allover teams have continued to develop the project and invest in giving themselves the means to offer festival-goers and festival one of the largest beach parties in France, in Cannes, in one of the most beautiful bays of the Cote d’Azur, whose world fame is well established.

The hype around Studio 338’s Release party has been growing immeasurably this year and now comes the huge Ibiza news people have been waiting for: Every Friday from 2pm on May 27th, Release will host at the world renowned and newly refurbished ES Paradis. The afternoon into evening parties will play out with the roof off and then under the club’s famous lights, all with an old school and hedonistic attitude where the music is the focus of each and every event.

A world class mix of international labels, brands and DJ talent has been lined up, so join the thousands around the world who already have and sign up now for first access to limited tickets http://bit.ly/338xRELEASEIBIZA. Sign up today and you will get a guaranteed FREE TICKET to the Opening Party, plus access to a 10 euro ticket secret sale for every event of the season plus an entry to Release’s 5 person season pass giveaway.

Once upon a time, full on day parties were one of the pillars of what made Ibiza so special. Sadly in the past 10 years this has been replaced by high priced VIP experiences which take the focus away from the music, the rave and the dance floor. But not any more: ES Paradis is the perfect venue for this Studio 338 party which allows it to offer a similar experience on the white Isle to the famous one back home in London where Release has hosted superstar DJs like Marco Carola.

It is a true hidden gem and one of the oldest clubs in the world that has been there since the earliest days of Ibiza’s party culture. The roof comes off to enable daytime raving under the Mediterranean sun, the sound system is banging and the stylish, organic aesthetic makes it one of the most beautiful clubs in existence. This Summer, after a huge refurb and two years of closure, Studio 338 and Release will take it right back to the top.

Release is set to bring some special day time party magic back to the White Isle in a big way. Sign up now for first access to limited tickets http://bit.ly/338xRELEASEIBIZA

On the Beach Brighton presents Fatboy Slim

Celebrating Big Beach Boutique’s 20th anniversary

*This is a ticketed event*

On Friday 22nd July, On The Beach has invited Fatboy Slim to headline its festival grounds – situated on the hallowed beach where it all began. The global music superstar’s return to his home turf, Brighton Beach, is set to be the liveliest event of the year – and your only chance to witness the inspiration behind those spine-tingling scenes from two decades ago!

On July 13th 2002, UK music history was made when 250,000 ravers flocked to Brighton Beach for a party unlike any before or since. Widely regarded as the UK’s answer to Woodstock, the legendary event brought the whole city to a standstill, turning the entire beach into a writhing mass of happy smiling faces. Dancers clung onto anything they could just to get a better view of the maestros Fatboy Slim and Midfield General as they served up the now-seminal soundtrack. The official mix compilation still remains a cult favourite two decades later and the mythology around the event has only grown in the years since. It’s impossible to understate the immense legacy left by Big Beach Boutique.

As an artist, Fatboy Slim’s contributions to dance music over years are second to none. From underground hits to mainstream chart toppers, he has sold millions of records around the world, holding the Guinness World Record for most Top 40 hits and winning nine MTV Video Music Awards and two Brit Awards. Just as famous for his explosive and super-sized live shows as he is for his music production, be it headlining Glastonbury, closing down the London Olympics or even playing at the House of Commons, Fatboy’s household-status doesn’t just come from the radio, but from the memories inspired in generations of hedonistic party goers. Simply put, there is no one quite like Fatboy Slim.

The return of Big Beach Boutique is set to be one of the year’s most memorable parties and if you want to be first in line for tickets to this monumental celebration, then make sure you sign up at http://www.bigbeachboutique20th.com/ to be a part of the exclusive pre-sale, beginning at 10am on Wednesday 30th March.
This huge news comes on top of the already announced On The Beach weekend shows, featuring Carl Cox and special guests playing on Saturday July 23rd, and drum & bass pioneers Andy C, Sub Focus, Wilkinson, Shy FX, Dimension, Friction and Harriet Jaxxon playing on Sunday July 24th

It’s almost time to return to the world’s most celebrated dance floor as Amnesia announces its epic Opening Party for the 2022 season. On May 21st, the best house and techno DJs on the planet return to soundtrack the official start of the Amnesia season with the likes of Marcel Dettmann, Nina Kraviz, Eats Everything, Jamie Jones, Maceo Plex, Seb Zito, Archie Hamilton, Marco Faraone, Caal, La La, and debuts for Lilly Palmer and Patrick Mason who have never played the club before and are part of a new wave of talent brought in by Amnesia for this year. The party kicks off at 6pm on a special stage and runs until midday the following day.

There is no party quite like the Amnesia opening. It is a famous first dance for music lovers all over the world, so it never fails to have a special energy and wild atmosphere. This year, the first proper opening party since before the pandemic is sure to be more special than ever and the start of a summer like no other, especially as there are some new tech developments for this season that will personalise your experience inside and outside the club and will connect you to a new world.

As such all the stops have been pulled out to make for a heavyweight line-up of talents from all points on the house and techno spectrum, with new stars, returning legends and everyone in between all set to play.

For chunky and stripped back techno, Marcel Dettmann and Lilly Palmer will keep you dancing, while the always explosive Nina Kraviz will mix up everything from acid to breaks to IDM like no other. Bombastic sounds will come from low end lover Eats Everything who plays back-to-back with fellow big room maestro Marco Faraone, who is one of techno’s most essential selectors. Then there is the always on point Amnesia favourite Jamie Jones and the groove-driven, garage, breaks and dub house mixologist Seb Zito and plenty of cutting edge tech house from contemporary favourite Archie Hamilton.

There will also be some magic from La La, the alter-ego of Lauren Andrew, a DJ and curator from Glasgow, now based in London and making big moves after a huge set on Boiler Room and headline gigs all over the UK. Fellow fresh talent Patrick Mason hails from Germany and like La La is all set to take over this summer with his forward thinking techno. He is a Berlin based Creative Director, Designer, Illustrator, Model and Influencer with a huge following and is one half of the hybrid live techno duo SRVD and a regular face at Berghain, one of the world’s most iconic techno clubs.

An extended set from Ellum Audio boss Maceo Plex will find him go deep into his own melodic and cosmic techno world, long time residents Mar-T, Caal and Pyramid mainstay Luca Donzelli know the club and crowd like no other so are sure to thrill, and there will be more from Mason to ensure you can’t stop dancing.

This one will be talked about for a long time, so make sure you are a part of it.

All roads lead to Tulum, Mexico, from Thursday 7 to Sunday 10 April 2022, where the biggest Drum ‘n’ Bass artist line-up that North & South America has ever seen will assemble itself for the LOCUS festival, the first event of its kind for bass heads in a place where House and Techno reign supreme.

LOCUS Tulum 2022 is a 4-day Drum ‘n’ Bass experience in paradise, surrounded by sunbeds and palm trees at Tulum’s iconic Mia Beach Club from Thursday to Saturday, with the Sunday night taking place at an undisclosed location deep into the early hours of Monday morning.

LOCUS is the landmark event for electronic music enthusiasts in North and South America to journey to Mexico and witness history in the making, all within the stunning backdrops of Tulum, with a line-up that represents the past, present, and future of Drum ‘n’ Bass.

Day 2 brings the godfathers of Jungle and Drum ‘n’ Bass, Fabio & Grooverider, hot off the incredible success of their recent Outlook Orchestra performance, complemented by the likes of Dub Phizix & Strategy, who will bring their distinct Mancunian DnB flavors; Submotive, who’s been making waves with his new Subjective collaboration with Goldie; Kolya, Dave Owen, NYC’s DJ Strife, and homegrown Mexican DnB talent, Mukiyare.

Day 3 gets even more ridiculous with a rare set from Hospital Records boss, London Elektricity; an exclusive Black Science Labs set from TeeBee in his first solo set in almost a decade; the champions of hyper-coloured Liquid Drum ‘n’ Bass, Etherwood and Technimatic; a live PA from PAV4N of Foreign Beggars fame; 1985 Music’s French Drum ‘n’ Bass dons Visages; Submorphics; and Metalheadz wonderkid Kid Drama, all set to bring their magic to the beach.

Day 4, which will be held at an undisclosed location, will see Workforce, who was a part of the eclectic Spectrasoul duo; Commix, who has been responsible for making some of the biggest tunes in Drum ‘n’ Bass; the maestro of dark DnB arts, Loxy; the great purveyor of intelligent and deep DnB, Klute; Swedish virtuoso Seba; Critical Music’s Sam Binga; and one of America’s finest duos, Quadrant & Iris, slated to lure the deepest, grittiest and grimiest bass frequencies into Tulum to close the festival in style.

This epic line up will be supported by some of the genre’s most treasured hosts like Degs, Dynamite MC, Jakes, MC Dino, MC Fava, MC GQ, MC LowQui, SP:MC, and Stamina MC.

Over the years, bass music festivals like Outlook and Hospitality On The Beach have taken the initiative of hosting grand line-ups around the best waterfronts in Europe and, thanks to its meticulously curated experience, LOCUS is now all set to bring this experience to North & South America for the first time ever.

With incredible views of the crystal-clear blue sea, and the Mexican jungle in sight nearby, LOCUS promises to be an experience of a lifetime. Day passes are priced at $100, while full 4-day festival passes are available at just $300 HERE. Travel, transfer and accommodation packages are also available to suit all budgets, including for backpackers.
