Welcome to No Skips. It’s Bonfire Night and half the city’s turned into an unofficial fireworks display. Sparks in the sky, smoke in the parks, and that familiar bassline rumble underneath it all. Here’s a glimpse of what’s on this week and what’s ahead.

DG x Doremia x Gallery present: Joseph
🗓 THURSDAY | 📍Gallery
🎫 Tickets Here
Gallery keeps things tight, and this one locks into that lane. Joseph brings rolling, melodic club gear that works just as well for an early warm up as it does for a late peak.

A good shout if you want something focused but not too serious before the weekend run.
JAEL (All Night Long)
🗓 FRIDAY | 📍Colour Factory
🎫 Tickets Here
JAEL running the controls means a proper narrative set, not a rush through big drops. Expect groove-heavy selections that move through house, club, bass and R&B-leaning edits, all tuned to that warehouse system.

🗓 SATURDAY | 📍fabric
