In association with super promoters Scruff of the Neck, we have just announced a series of gigs featuring the best unsigned talent from the Yorkshire area and beyond. The first gig is on 26th January, and will see City Dukes and Alex Tracey supporting The Blue Wave Pavillion. Originally from Warrington but now based in […]
Kornel Kovacs is one of those characters who has modestly and organically asserted his influence on the European house scene. As one of the co-founders of the Studio Barnhus label with Alex Bowman, he has aired releases by Baba Stiltz, Jimi Tenor, Mount Liberation Unlimited, HNNY and many more. It also serves as a home for his […]
As a Leeds based club, we absolutely love PBR Streetgang. For years, we have been proud to say that they are one of our finest exports – and definitely one of the biggest. Name an international club, and Bonar and Tom have almost definitely played there. They’ve even played in an igloo. But they still […]
The final Sunday Joint x Leeds College of Music collaboration of 2017 features Heretic, who is actually making his second appearance when he joins Regime in our basement for a special festive free party. The hip-hop artist has just graduated from LCoM, but has stuck around in Leeds to bless us with his determined attitude […]

Having started their night at Leeds Uni, Loop have now moved down Woodhouse Lane and into the HiFi Club. Next week, they bring their first booking to the club: rising selector Will Lister, who had a fantastic summer of festival gigs and radio shows. We spoke to Ben, Michael, Caitlin and Zac about their new night, the […]

They play the fourth event in the Sunday Joint’s collaboration with Leeds College of Music, in support of Tarzan Bros. We had a short chat with the […]
Leeds homies Paper Tiger, possibly the city’s most accomplished hip-hop outift, are stopping off at HiFi on their tour of the UK this week. In a city that was once a real hotbed for hip-hop sounds, they are one of the few flag bearers of the genre – and, as their last album Blast Off […]
