We are very happy to welcome Tricky Fingerz for their first show ever 👀🥰🥳
Tricky Fingerz is the new project of two remarkable scratch artists from the Brussels region, C-TMB and Seka, who have been friends for many years. They’ve decided to join forces to show how the combination of scratching and drum and bass can produce melodic, danceable and energetic sets. Each of them has spent the last twenty years perfecting their technique to get to this point 💽🎚🎛🎚💽
C-TMB is a Belgian turntablist known for his fast, precise style and unique flair. A two-time world champion, he won the 2018 Hardcore Skratch Nerds Battle and the 2023 DMC World Scratch title. With deep roots in Hip Hop and a strong presence in both battles and live performances, he continues to push boundaries in the drum and bass scene with powerful mixes and cuts. He is also part of the UPGRD collective together with Fabot. The duo grind the finest contemporary beats with scratching and an ideal mix flow.
Seka is a DJ, Producer and Turntablist from Brussels. He discovered his passion for mixing and scratching in 2005, and quickly built a reputation for himself in Brussels’ Drum and Bass scene by playing with various crews ; mainly Bankizz, Redbeats and Drumderground. He then got more involved in turntablism, accompanying bands on stage or in the studio in various musical genres ; Rock, Rap, Electro, Beat-boxing,… He took part in numerous battles, most notably Beat4Battle and DMC, and became several times DMC Vice Champion of Belgium. After being an active member of Tour de Samme for several years, he joined the Drum & Beer crew, finding a philosophy similar to the Drum and Bass nights of his early days. On top of his artistic career, Seka works as sound engineer and sound designer for the cinema industry.
They’ve been preparing for this event for several months now, where they’ll be presenting their new project in public for the first time. Their set will cover most of the drum and bass sub-genres, taking you from one to another with finesse and technicality 👀🤩 ———————————————— Tricky Fingerz est le nouveau projet de C-TMB et Seka, deux remarquables scratcheurs de la région Bruxelloise, amis de longue date. Ils ont décidé de s’associer pour montrer comment la combinaison du scratch et de la drum and bass peut produire des sets mélodiques, dansants et énergiques. Chacun d’entre eux a passé ces vingt dernières années a perfectionner sa technique pour en arriver là 💽🎚🎛🎚💽
C-TMB est un turntablist belge connu pour son style rapide et précis ainsi que pour son flair unique. Deux fois champion du monde, il a remporté le Hardcore Skratch Nerds Battle en 2018 et le titre de DMC World Scratch en 2023. Avec des racines profondes dans le hip-hop et une forte présence à la fois dans les battles et les performances live, il continue de repousser les limites de la scène drum and bass avec des mixes et des coupes puissantes. Il fait également partie du collectif UPGRD avec Fabot. Le duo broie les meilleurs beats contemporains avec des scratchs et un flux de mix idéal.
Seka est un DJ, Producteur et Turntablist originaire de Bruxelles. Passionné de mix et de scratch depuis 2005, il commence à se faire un nom dans les soirées Drum and Bass Bruxelloises au sein de crews tels que Bankizz, Redbeats et Drumderground. Il se consacre ensuite plus au Turntablism en accompagnant diverses formations sur scène ou en studio, dans des genres musicaux divers et variés : Rock, Rap, Electro, Beatbox,… Il participe à de multiples battles, dont Beat4Battle et DMC, et devient plusieurs fois Vice champion de Belgique DMC. Après avoir été un membre actif de la Tour de Samme pendant plusieurs années, il rejoint le crew Drum & Beer, y trouvant une philosophie semblable aux soirées Drum and Bass de ses débuts. En plus de sa carrière artistique, Seka travaille comme ingénieur du son et sound designer dans le milieu du cinéma.
Cela fait plusieurs mois qu’ils se préparent pour cet événement, où ils présenteront leur nouveau projet pour la première fois en public. Leur set couvrira la plupart des sous-genres de drum and bass, vous transportant de l’un a l’autre avec finesse et technicité 👀🤩 ———————————————— Tricky Fingerz is het nieuwe project van C-TMB en Seka, twee geweldige scratchartiesten uit de Brusselse regio die al heel lang bevriend zijn. Ze besloten hun krachten te bundelen om te laten zien hoe de combinatie van scratchen en drum and bass melodieuze, dansbare en energieke sets kan opleveren. Elk van hen heeft de afgelopen twintig jaar besteed aan het perfectioneren van hun techniek om zover te komen 💽🎚🎛🎚💽
C-TMB is een Belgische turntablist die bekend staat om zijn snelle, precieze stijl en unieke flair. Als tweevoudig wereldkampioen won hij de 2018 Hardcore Skratch Nerds Battle en de 2023 DMC World Scratch titel.

Seka is een DJ, Producer en Turntablist uit Brussel. Hij ontdekte zijn passie voor mixen en scratchen in 2005, en bouwde al snel een reputatie op in de Brusselse Drum and Bass scene door te draaien met verschillende crews ; voornamelijk Bankizz, Redbeats en Drumderground. Daarna ging hij zich meer toeleggen op turntablism en begeleidde hij bands op het podium of in de studio in verschillende muzikale genres ; Rock, Rap, Electro, Beat-boxing,…. Hij nam deel aan talrijke battles, met name Beat4Battle en DMC, en werd meermaals DMC Vice Kampioen van België. Na een aantal jaren actief lid van de Tour de Samme te zijn geweest, sloot hij zich aan bij de Drum & Beer-ploeg, waar hij een vergelijkbare filosofie heeft gevonden als bij de Drum & Bass-avonden van zijn eerste dagen. Naast zijn artistieke carrière werkt Seka als geluidstechnicus en geluidsontwerper voor de filmindustrie.
Ze zijn al maanden bezig met de voorbereidingen voor dit evenement, waar ze hun nieuwe project voor het eerst in het openbaar zullen presenteren.

We are super happy to welcome +BATTERY- to our event this Thursday. Brace yourself for pure energy and raw drumming. We can’t wait to hear what he has in store for us
Two decades ago, +Battery- ignited his journey in the heart of the underground, armed with nothing but a crate of vinyl and a relentless passion for drum and bass. Inspired by the raw energy of metal and breakbeat, his early sets were an unfiltered explosion of heavy basslines, razor-sharp breaks, and dark, immersive soundscapes. But evolution is inevitable for those who push boundaries. Over the years, his sound transformed, fusing the raw intensity of the underground with the high-octane energy of mainstage anthems.
A powerhouse behind the decks, +Battery- has shared the stage with industry giants like Netsky, Murdock, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Noisia, and Gorillaz, proving his versatility and dominance in both the underground and festival circuits. His high-energy performances have torn through some of the world’s most legendary venues and festivals, from the iconic Webster Hall in NYC to the electrifying Dour Festival and Tomorrowland.
His ability to bridge the raw, visceral power of classic drum and bass with the euphoric energy of massive crowds has cemented his reputation as a true force in the scene. Whether he’s delivering an intimate club experience or commanding a sea of thousands, one thing is certain, when +Battery- steps up, the voltage surges, and the crowd ignites.
————————————————
+Battery- a commencé son voyage au cœur de l’underground il y a une vingtaine d’années, armé d’une caisse de vinyles et d’une passion implacable pour la drum and bass. Inspiré par l’énergie brute du métal et du breakbeat, ses premiers sets étaient une explosion débridée de lourdes lignes de basse, de breaks tranchants et de paysages sonores sombres et immersifs. Mais l’évolution est incontournable pour ceux qui repoussent les limites. Au fil des années, son son s’est transformé, fusionnant l’intensité brute de l’underground avec la puissance débordante des hits populaires.
Véritable machine de guerre aux platines, +Battery- a partagé la scène avec des géants de l’industrie tels que Netsky, Murdock, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Noisia et Gorillaz, prouvant sa polyvalence et sa maîtrise des circuits underground et festivaliers. Ses performances survoltées ont marqué certains des lieux et festivals les plus légendaires du monde, de l’emblématique Webster Hall à New York aux électrisant Dour Festival et Tomorrowland.
Sa capacité à combiner la puissance brute et viscérale de la drum and bass traditionnelle avec l’énergie euphorique des grandes foules a consolidé sa réputation en tant que pilier de la scène. Qu’il s’agisse d’une expérience intime dans un club ou d’une mer de milliers de spectateurs, une chose est sûre : lorsque +Battery- monte sur scène, la tension monte et la foule s’enflamme.
————————————————
Twintig jaar geleden begon +Battery zijn reis in het hart van de underground, gewapend met niets anders dan een krat vinyl en een niet aflatende passie voor drum and bass. Geïnspireerd door de rauwe energie van metal en breakbeat, zijn eerste sets waren een ongefilterde explosie van zware baslijnen, vlijmscherpe breaks en donkere, meeslepende soundscapes. Maar evolutie is onvermijdelijk voor degenen die grenzen verleggen. In de loop der jaren transformeerde zijn geluid en versmolt de rauwe intensiteit van de underground met de energieke mainstage-anthems.
Als krachtpatser achter de decks heeft +Battery het podium gedeeld met grootheden uit de industrie zoals Netsky, Murdock, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Noisia en Gorillaz, waarmee hij zijn veelzijdigheid en dominantie in zowel het underground- als het festivalcircuit heeft bewezen. Zijn energieke optredens hebben een aantal van ‘s werelds meest legendarische zalen en festivals doorkruist, van de iconische Webster Hall in NYC tot de opwindende Dour Festival en Tomorrowland.
Zijn vermogen om de rauwe, viscerale kracht van klassieke drum & bass te combineren met de euforische energie van grote massa’s heeft zijn reputatie als een ware kracht in de scene gevestigd. Of hij nu een intieme clubervaring neerzet of een zee van duizenden aanvoert, één ding is zeker: als +Battery- opkomt, stijgt de spanning en ontvlamt de menigte.
We are extremely happy to welcome SOLA to our next event this Thursday This DnB trio from Manchester is going to tear the place down

After many singles and EPs, their debut album Stars Align, was released on Grand Theft Audio in September 2022 to widespread critical acclaim.

They hit 2023 running with high profile EP and Single releases on Korsakov Music, Play Me, Boomslang & Formation, which have seen them receiving support from as far afield as Pendulum, Sub Focus & Ray Keith. In April, they won the DJ Rap remix competition against 658 other entries and in May they released the remix album Stars Realigned on GTA, including the anthemic Cliques remix of Pico De Gallo. In August and September 2023, they did their first tour outside of Europe with performances in Canada, USA, Vietnam & Australia. They rounded off the year with an official remix of Splat by Virus Syndicate, Dope DOD, Harry Shotta & OneDa.
2024 was a similarly good year for the trio, as their collab with Akov dropped in March on Neurofunk powerhouse Eatbrain. In April, their track with K Jah named Gulf Stream premiered on UKF Drum & Bass and was very well received. Several high profile singles released on legendary label Suburban Base and then a trio of tracks dropped on Jungle Cakes, the largest of which (We No Care w/ Exile & Dread MC) went on to accumulate 100’s of thousands of streams across all platforms after massive support scene-wide.
2025 looks set to be their biggest yet with forthcoming tracks on bucket list labels like Viper Recordings and collabs with artists like General Levy, Skittles, Genesis Elijah and many more.
As DJs, their sets are a fast-paced and unpredictable with an emphasis on crowd reaction and stacked to the brim with tracks that won’t be heard anywhere else for months, sometimes years as well as fan favourites from their back catalogue and stone cold classics from every era of DnB.

Après de nombreux singles et EPs, leur premier album Stars Align est sorti sur Grand Theft Audio en septembre 2022 et a été largement salué par la critique.

Ils ont entamé l’année 2023 sur les chapeaux de roue en publiant des maxis et singles sur Korsakov Music, Play Me, Boomslang et Formation, qui leur ont valu le soutien d’artistes aussi variés que Pendulum, Sub Focus et Ray Keith. Ils ont remporté le concours de remixes de DJ Rap face à 658 autres participants en avril, et ont sorti l’album de remixes Stars Realigned en mai sur GTA, avec notamment le remix culte de Pico De Gallo par Cliques.

En avril, leur titre avec K Jah, Gulf Stream, a été diffusé en avant-première sur UKF Drum & Bass et a été très bien accueilli. Plusieurs singles de haut niveau sont sortis sur le légendaire label Suburban Base, puis un trio de titres est sorti sur Jungle Cakes, dont le plus important (We No Care w/ Exile & Dread MC) a accumulé des centaines de milliers de streams toutes plateformes confondues, suite à un soutien massif de toute la scène.
