Fabio & Grooverider have confirmed the return of their seminal party, Rage.

Rage, the legendary club night that ran between October 1988 and 1993, will return to its home London home Heaven on Sunday the 8th December, running in two rooms from 6PM to 1AM.

Fabio & Grooverider will play three hours of Rage classics in the Rage Room, joined by DJs from the original parties, Trevor Fung and Colindale. There will also be music from Bushwacka!, and a live PA from Shades Of Rhythm.

Bound for hell in a homemade vessel the UK may be, but at least this month gives us plenty of opportunities to go out dancing. 

Dexta, boss of experimental drum & bass label Diffrent Music, teams up with Iliad, aka one half of Conduct, to deliver ultra-hype anthem 'Popcorn Riddim'.

Coming via the new 'Pick & Mix Vol. 1' compilation on Diffrent offshoot Sweetbox, the track is the very definition of a club banger, purpose-built for multiple rewinds.

Dropping in almost immediately, a tidal wave of hammering breaks and ruthless bass wubbs is unleashed, barely letting up for the track's four-minute run-time. The choppy arrangement, however, means there's a bouncy, upbeat groove throughout.

Coco Bryce drops a full EP of original material on Western Lore this month, and we've got A1 cut 'Come 2 U' for an exclusive first listen.

The 'Beats Like This' EP will be the Dutchman's first full solo release on the label — which is run by Bristol stalwart Dead Man's Chest and was nominated for Breakthrough Label at our Best Of British awards last year — though he appeared on the imprint's 2018 'Blunted Breaks Vol. 1' compilation.

LMajor teams up with Mani Festo this month to deliver the second edition of 'Club Glow', the mixtape series launched last year by Denham Audio and Borai. 

Split into two sides packed with original tracks, the A features 11 cuts from Mani Festo, while the B brings together a whopping 17 new tunes from LMajor.

A compilation mix from each artist has been recorded to cassette tape, plus all tracks will be available separately via digital download.

It's a month of change to say the least, with British summertime arriving and EU leaving drinks still possible. Some things always stay the same though— namely that insatiable appetite for decent parties, as the top March club events go to show. 

Mani Festo joins the Rupture London family next month with his 'Hold The Line' EP featuring hardcore slammer 'Warehouse Theory'.

Fresh from his split record with Denham Audio for Beat Machine Records, the UK producer offers up a varied selection, folding together elements of tech-step, skittish jungle, grime and more across the four tracks.
