The sound of Sundays on Rinse.fm between the hours of 1am til 3am,
The Heatwave play dancehall reggae and bashment. They make no bones about their love of it; in fact their Hot Wuk parties are a positive encouragement for other people to join in the wind. Two of the main protagonists behind Heatwave, Gabriel Myddleton (pictured) and Rubi Dan, founded the name as a club night in East London, but over time, through many shifts it’s evolved into what it is now: an enterprise that encompasses their night Hot Wuk, their radio show on Rinse and the bashment sound of modern London.
Ahead of their second Room Three takeover, one that sees Hot Wuk resident and production legend Sticky join Gabriel alongside UKG legend Wookie, who’ll be performing a specific garage set alongside Mighty Moe of Heartless Crew fame, The Heatwave have provided us with a promotional mix. A carefully selected set of songs that outlines the vibe, the hardline dancing and the smiley nature of a Hot Wuk party – come down on Friday and see for yourself; it’s an infectious thing.
