Did you know Bar a Bar has been around for over 20 years?

Over the years, we’ve had some of the biggest names in the industry grace the decks of our beloved basement- a few of them listed below. Which ones would you have shown up for?

Here’s a selection of some of our favourite flyers from 2009-2016. A small window into the early days.

We’ll be digging into the later years next, along with a bit more on what this space used to be.

this friday @ the basement, FREEDIVE //004- the lineup ✩

Artist Introduction: Wendy

Wendy is a DJ and selector drawn to music with texture, edge and a certain raw beauty.

Hailing from France, she brings a meticulous approach to digging driven by a fascination with a broad range of genres and influences.

Her thoughtfully constructed sets build tension as she engages the dancefloor with every record, unfolding naturally and telling a story from beginning to end.

Artist Introduction: Gamine

Deeply influenced by Brussels’ underground club culture, Gamine has developed a sound that is both hypnotic and emotionally resonant.

Blurring the lines between house, techno and psychedelic rhythms. His sets favour patience, groove, and atmosphere over obvious moments.

Catch him making his UK debut at Bar a Bar on 28/08/26.

Artist introduction: Massimo

Massimo’s music taste first took shape in Manchester before evolving further in London.

From listening bars, clubs and boat parties he has developed a keen ear and the versatility to adapt to any environment.

This marks his debut at Gaffe, a room he knows exceptionally well having helped build the space and become a key part of the team.
