Basstripper is taking the D&B scene by storm. He started mixing in 2015 at a local rave in Belgium after he got inspired by his best friends. Thinking to himself, “I can do this too. Why not give it a try,” he quickly got the hang of it, took up music production, and found his way into the Belgian drum & bass scene. After about four years of combining music with a part-time job, he became a full-time musician.

This proved to be a wise decision. Fast forward two years, his megahit ‘In The City’ went viral last summer, and he supported Bou and B-Live on their Australian tour in November 2023. He also remixed Netsky’s ‘Hell in High Heels’ at the end of 2023 and had his remix of Friction’s ‘Supersonic’ released in January of this year.

With no plans to slow down, 2025 is already shaping up to become the best year of his life.

Hailing from the southwest of the UK, drum & bass producer Fred V has elevated his trademark euphoria and melodic movements to new heights.

With his shimmering big room steppers to heart-melting arpeggio melodies, Fred V draws inspiration from the likes of future-bass, electronica powerhouse Flume and the neo-soul stylings of Tom Misch. His accomplished songwriting abilities allow him to tread the delicate boundaries of D+B and the boundless realms of electronica.

Having spent the last seven years touring the world and receiving huge support across dancefloors and airwaves from the likes of Annie Mac, Friction, MistaJam and Rene LaVice, the decision to step away from his decade long collaborative project Fred V & Grafix marked a new and exciting chapter in Fred V’s career.

With a hefty selection of solo releases now under his belt including his ‘Distance’ EP which frequented support on BBC Radio 1 on Annie Mac’s show, soulful drum & bass gem ‘Trust Me’ featuring SAYAH, as well as dancefloor slammers ‘Dive’, ‘Icarus’ and ‘Apeldoorn Jamming’. In 2021, Fred dropped his highly-anticipated debut album ‘Radiate’ 15 sensational tracks with collaborations from Millbrook, Zara Kershaw, Vonné, Lottie Jones and SAYAH. The Exeter-based multi-instrumentalist, continues to showcase his unique musical identity through ethereal soundscapes and melancholic climates. You can also catch Fred on the airwaves selecting the freshest D&B cuts over on KISS FM every Monday at 9 PM.

ZHU @ Terminal 5! Ring in 2025 with a 3-hour open bar 10PM - 1AM. With his sleek synth melodies, billowing basslines, and undeniable hooks, the GRAMMY-nominated artist ZHU creates tracks that are as sexy as they are sinister. Though many know ZHU as a producer and DJ, he’s much more than that: he’s also a singer, performer, instrumentalist, and, importantly, a songwriter and filmmaker, two facets he delves into for his ambitious new album and film GRACE. ZHU first made his presence known to the world with his 2014 single, “Faded,” which was nominated for Best Dance Recording at the 2015 Grammy Awards. He stamped his spot with his genre-blurring 2016 debut, GENERATIONWHY. He only continued to evolve with subsequent projects like RINGOS DESERT (2018), DREAMLAND 2021 (2021), Musical Chairs Mixtape (Vol. 1) (2022) and Days Before Grace EP (2023), a prologue to Grace.

Slated to take place on Saturday, September 28th, the DJ & producer will deliver an hours-long, sonic experience that promises to immerse attendees into his forward-thinking artistic vision and passion set against an unforgettable backdrop.

Brimming with dynamic collaborations with electronic producers, vocalists, and songwriters from ARMONICA and Braev to The Temper Trap and NoMBe, “Promised Land” is poised to be an opus in a category of its own, a testament to Vintage Culture's boundary pushing approach to electronic music.

Situated directly under the Kosciuszko Bridge, “Under the K Bridge Park” is a multi-purpose space that reimagines a formerly abandoned site into a vibrant, seven-acre cultural epicenter. Inviting the public to discover the little-known waterfront of Newtown Creek, the park offers a collaborative and idyllic space connecting New York's two biggest boroughs beneath the iconic Brooklyn-Queens Expressway.
