GUEST #1
TREVOR FUNG!
If you don’t know, GET TO KNOW… GOOGLE HIS NAME...
If you look through the history of our scene, there is one name you will see EVERYWHERE…
He’s done the lot. Groundbreaking is an understatement. He’s played for everyone, with all the movers and shakers – but always stayed true to THE REAL.
He’s been described as “The Godfather of Ibiza.”
No doubt, most of us have heard the – let’s say – "urban myth" about four DJs going to visit a friend in Ibiza, then returning to London and sparking the Rave scene. Uhum…
What’s less known is that the friend they went to visit was none other than the one and only Trevor Fung – already settled and spinning on the White Island.
From Sunrise and Energy to Rage and Spectrum, Trevor’s name is stamped all over rave history. Today, he still smashes it at iconic parties like Clockwork Orange, Shoom, and Pikes Ibiza, playing alongside house royalty like Morales,Danny Krivit, Derrick May, and Frankie Knuckles.
Still producing. Still DJing. Still defining the sound.

HEADLINER 3
Yogi Haughton — A True Legend of the DancefloorA pioneer of the UK’s house, soul, and dance scenes, Yogi was a founding resident at Glasgow’s Sub Club and launched Scotland’s first house/techno venue, The Hoochie Coochie Club.
Called “The John Peel of Dance Music” (DJ Mag) and “a genuine database of music” (BBC Radio 4), Yogi’s genre-spanning sets—from Southport Weekender to Wigan Casino reunions—are the stuff of legend.
He’s released music on top labels like Rumour, R&S, Guidance, Vibe, Cordial, and Midnight Riot. His remix of Garfield Fleming’s “Grass Ain’t Greener” is a modern soul staple.
With a vinyl collection of 70,000+, Yogi’s sets span soul, house, boogie, disco, techno, and more.
Catch him at MFSB, Hector’s House, Vocal Booth, Platinum Weekender, BBE Store, Kavos Weeker, LSD Aberdeen — and soon at Neil Rushton’s new club in Hull.
Wherever he plays, it’s real music for real heads — deep crates, rich history, and undeniable energy.
HEADLINER 4
CAROLINE DESYKES
We’re buzzing to welcome back the incredible Caroline Desykes!
She absolutely smashed it at our very first event, so it’s only right she returns to do it all again.
Originally from West Lothian and now based in Newcastle, Caroline started her DJ journey 8 years ago with the House Rulez crew, later teaming up with the 51 Crew in Bathgate.
After a guest mix on Carole Cazmac’s Groove City Radio, her passion reignited — and she soon had her own show on the station.
Since then, she’s been making moves:– Kargo, Sheffield (supporting Melvo Baptiste)– The Shelter, Liverpool– Mambo All-Dayer, Shotts– Queens, London– Big Shiny Disco Brunch, Fauldhouse– Subliminal Festival, Stirling– And she’s back at Mambo Shotts this October, supporting Jon Pleased Wimmin & Jon Mancini
Caroline brings high energy and soulful, jackin’ house — both behind and in front of the decks. She’s also played Soul Fusion in Portugal for the past four years.
