Two UK dance legends headline Bongo this weekend, repping jungle/dnb and house/disco sounds

19 May 2026 -

Two UK dance legends play Bongo this weekend, as bona fide jungle/dnb legend Dillinja returns to headline Disorder and equally high profile house/disco stars Crazy P return to headline Club_Nacht x Hobbes Music.

Both acts have performed at Bongo before, Dillinja most recently for Midnight Bass’ Hogmanay event and Crazy P last February for Club_Nacht x Hobbes Music, both acts respectively playing to a completely sold out Bongo, not to mention other clubs across the UK of late…

Unfortunately due to having emergency (and very unexpected) spinal surgery last week, Mrs Magoo will no longer be playing on Friday night. “We are currently looking at future dates to reschedule Mrs Magoo and we are wishing her a quick and speedy recovery!” say the Disorder crew.

Dillinja will now be playing a longer set (90 mins) instead with Leesha & Harry Jackson stepping in on support alongside Peski and Kirky P aka “Gallway’s finest”.

CN x HM are also feting 14 years of “shindigs, questionable patter and doing things the hard way… properly” at the much-loved Hector’s House club night (which championed underground house music and disco at Cabaret Voltaire throughout the ’10s).  As such, Hector’s stalwart David Elders will be warming up the main room with Hobbes, while the upstairs space champions a team of newcomers in the shape of Ferb, Cara Hegarty, J4ack and Jedda.

And, if you want to start early on Saturday evening, there’s even a unique live show via the genius/madness of The Baron Nonesutch Band.  Cabaret? Comedy? Theatre? Art? Live Music?  As affiliates will assure you, the Baron is all of the above and more with equally madcap support from The Egg Lord and newcomers Y.I.O.T.A.  More info/tickets

In short, you’re in for some good times if the mood takes you this week.  What a way to usher in the summer months!  For more info on each event clink on the links above.

Drum n Bass legend Dillinja headlines Bongo Hogmanay ’25

12 December 2025 -

For legends of dnb, Dillinja‘s credentials run deep and for sheer weight of profile (and bass!), this man is hard to beat for a worthy headliner for our Hogmanay celebrations as anyone who caught him tearing up the landing stage at this year’s Kelburn festival will attest.

Incredibly it’s been ten years since he last played Bongo (appearing alongside Chimpo for Electrikal Sound System’s event way back in the heady days of 2015!)

This wee clip of him in the studio is a good primer for all the producer heads out there, keen to take some notes…

And this documentary about the incredible Valve Recordings label he’s been running with Lemon D since way back in 1997 is a deeper watch, for those who need to know more…

Tickets have been flying, don’t leave it too late to grab yours.
