A NIGHT OF LEGENDS, goes from strength to strength.

A NIGHT OF LEGENDS, goes from strength to strength.

Plans are coming together rapidly for what could be described as one of the biggest ever line-ups of DJ talent from across the dance music scene in N.Ireland.

Physical paper tickets are now available from our online store, and direct from our Banbridge building.

BUY TICKETS HERE >>>>

The event, named A Night Of Legends was announced in December and was created to raise much needed funds to help a much loved DJ who has contributed over 25 years of service to dance-floors across Ireland.

Paper tickets are now available to purchase from Belfast Underground HERE

Next day delivery is available via Royal Mail 1st Class post, or collection is available on Saturdays between 12pm - 5pm from Belfast Underground's Banbridge store.

Fergie McWilliams / DJ Fergie / DJ Fergie Freeman has been an important part of the DJ scene in Northern Ireland for nearly 3 decades.

Fergie suffered a brain injury a while back, resulting in many life problems, which include no longer being able to walk unaided and loss of speech. This has affected his life in so many ways that are unimaginable for someone of such big character.

Known for his love of BIG tunes and the uplifting styles of electronic music, Fergie gained thousands of fans and friends through his many club residencies and hundreds of mix tapes back in the day.

His best mates initially set up a GO FUND ME page to help out with their dear friend’s many complex needs and they have raised almost £3,000. This initial funding was raised to secure the necessary funds to purchase an electric wheelchair to aid and help in his continued rehabilitation.

Response from the DJ community was instant!

So, for one night only Sat May 4th 2024 the lads are asking that you join them for a night of seriously big tunes as they come together to support our dear friend and talented DJ who is facing incredibly tough times due to his illness.

RIP Mallorca Lee

RIP Mallorca Lee

The world of electronic rave music has lost one of its favourite hardcore sons.

Ultra-Sonic founder, front man, producer and globetrotting DJ, Mallorca Lee has died just weeks after announcing his terminal diagnosis. He was 51.

His first heartfelt social media post revealing his illness, left thousands of fans around the world stunned and in complete shock. The post stated that he had months to live. Sadly that was not to be.

Mallorca's family broke the news of his passing on his official Facebook page on Monday.

“We love you infinity, goodbye and safe trip.”

Mall was always a very firm favourite in North / South Ireland and was renowned for his electrifying energy and stage presence. There was a strong connection and common ground between the Scottish rave scene and our very own. It is one of the few things that brings all communities together as one.

One post on his official Facebook page said “I apologise for not telling all of my family and friends individually, it just breaks my heart a thousand times and I don’t have the strength to go through it all over and over again"

“I love you all, the last ten years have been the best of them all, it really has been wonderful.

“Love, that’s all we ever really have, our one true currency, so tell the ones around you what they mean to you, every day.”

We pass on our heartfelt condolences to Mallorca's family.

May he rest in peace.

AVA Belfast 2024 lineup revealed

AVA has become the missing jewel in Belfast's electronic music crown.

The annual festival, brainchild of Belfast native Sarah McBriar, is now into its 10th successful year and continues to go from strength to strength.

From its fledgling years of building the brand and selling 1500 tickets at the T13 Building, to now clocking up a standard of 10,000+ sales on each day of recent events, the production values and line ups at each show continue to grow with each years festival.

You can see the reinvestment in each new event as they continue to make each one stronger than the last. Every little attention to detail is considered in the planning.

Acts booked for each year are carefully selected and represent the absolute cream of current DJ and production rosters globally. With the electronic music world changing so quickly, these guys have the required eye for talent and their finger well and truly on the pulse of what is fresh.

2024 sees another very fresh turnout of acts with many regular names appearing alongside the most upfront worldwide artists.

The mighty Belfast titans BICEP return again, this time with their critically acclaimed Chroma AV DJ set to offer their home crowd something very special.

US house god Kerri Chandler makes a headline appearance, along with rising stars Nia Archives and Barry Can't Swim

As usual, the standard of local support DJs is of the highest standard.

We think that this year will be the strongest yet

DOM DOLLA makes his Belfast debut

DOM DOLLA makes his Belfast debut

Melbourne based DJ / producer Dom Dolla makes his Belfast debut on Sat 24th Feb at The Telegraph Building.

Dom discovered dance music when his Mother handed him a copy of Basement Jaxx’s 2001 album "Rooty" while on holiday. This was a game changing moment!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uluaU17xFkc

In 2015 Dom was encouraged to quit his day job to pursue his obsession with music and production.

Dom’s break out year saw the release of the massive global smash "Take It", which he quickly followed up with the huge releases "San Frandisco" "Moving Blind", "Pump The Brakes" and "Strangers" w/ Mansionair.

In 2022, Dom returned with the highly anticipated single "Miracle Maker" featuring Clementine Douglas.

Dolla’s catalog continues to generate over half-a-BILLION streams, with 2x Platinum & 2x Gold Certified Singles, receiving the ultimate Australian recognition of winning an ARIA award for ‘Best Dance Release’, and has been commissioned by the biggest names in music to deliver official remixes for Rufus Du Sol, Dua Lipa, Calvin Harris, The Martinez Brothers & Louie Vega ft Marc E. Bassy, and Gorillaz ft. Tame Impala. The latter reached #1 on Beatport's Top 100 Charts for six consecutive weeks.

Belfast's clubbers are in for something very special.

Check out Liam Gallagher’s new single with John Squire

Some might say it’s a match made in indie rock heaven - we tend to agree.

Ex Stone Roses guitarist John Squire has joined forces with Liam Gallagher on this killer cut.

After working together remotely laying down the bare bones of the track, the two bonafide legends spent three weeks in Los Angeles working with producer Greg Kurstin, who also produces The Foo Fighters amongst others.

The results are exactly what you’d expect from these guys, with Squire’s trademark guitar sounds cutting through and Gallagher’s vocals soaring to his usual heights.
