There’s drum & bass, house, disco and rap, a poisonous frog ceremony with deeply unfortunate digestive consequences, a Stranger Things club remix, the first taste of The Tribe of Good, and a quiz where made-up DJs prove almost indistinguishable from the actual DJ Mag Top 100. Plus new music from Phonat, Cassius, Duke Dumont and KNOWER. High culture meets low culture. Mostly in a crisp.
