Fred V & Grafix, the deeply influential drum & bass duo, are reuniting for a rare DJ set in London.
The pair amicably split back in December 2018 to pursue solo projects, with Fred V saying at the time that the duo’s “journey has been nicely concluded” after completing a three-album deal with Hospital Records. 2016’s Oxygen album was a tour de force, defining an era of liquid drum & bass music through timeless tracks like “Ultraviolet” and “Altitude.”
The iconic label’s global events arm, Hospitality, is now set to host Fred V & Grafix at the first drum & bass event at O2 Academy Brixton since its April comeback. The venue reopened with new safety measures after shuttering in December 2022, when a crowd crush resulted in the deaths of two people and injuries to others.
Joining the duo on the lineup for the eight-hour, Halloween-themed day party are Camo & Krooked, Metrik, P Money x Whiney and other Hospital Records favorites. Attendees will also experience a special b2b performance from Nu:Tone and London Elektricity, who will drop a “History Of Hospital” set replete with classics from the label’s storied catalog.
“I’m delighted that we are taking Hospitality back to one of the truly legendary venues, and probably my favourite music space… O2 Brixton Academy,” Hospital Records founder Chris Goss said in a statement. “We delivered so many exceptional shows in this building, including the launch of Netsky Live, Camo & Krooked debut stage production and the first d&b 360 experience! This is going to be special.”
The show is scheduled for October 26th. Check out the lineup below and purchase passes here.
