The story of the Valve is now legend. Dillinja and Lemon-D, inspired by the systems of Jah Shaka and King Tubby’s, and fed up of playing on second rate club systems that didn’t cater for the lower frequencies of deep bass, were left with one choice: to build their own. After years of research, design and plenty of blood, sweat and tears, the mighty 96k Valve Sound System was born and made its debut at Fabric London in 2001. New Years Eve in Birmingham with Dillinja, K-aze aka Lemon-D, Bassline Smith & Drumsound, Hazard plus many more. Tickets from £22.50 + booking fee. For tickets and more information, visit Ticketsellers.
