Grammy-award winning, genre-blending, artistic jazztronica duo take to the hall of Hackney Church, utilising its expert acoustics to their own, jazzy ends.
Making their name with the massively popular 'Pineapple' beat, Blue Lab Beats have ascended to dizzy new heights, playing the show of their lifetimes at the Royal Albert Hall in 2022.
Their show earlier in the year at Ninety One Living Room was resplendent with buttery beats and endless grooves, but now they take it from the lounge to the pulpit.
Bringing their slick, smooth styles to Hackney Church, an underrated music venue especially for electronic music, they will no doubt benefit from the blessed acoustics and grand interior. Inspired by the golden ages of jazz and hip-hop, they are one of Britain's smartest and exciting duos.
Their latest single ‘Options’ is a stunning mix of breakcore elements with dancehall and amapiano, a refreshing genre blend that keeps audiences reminded why Blue Lab Beats are worth listening to. Their 2024 release Blue Eclipse swings from house to jazz to alternative hip-hop to drum and bass and back again to jazz. It's a phenomenal record that's bound to make our end of year list.
It's a chill gig rather than a big ol' club night, ending at 10:30pm so you're fresh for work the next day. And indeed, you will be refreshed. These guys always come through with the best show.
