Return Of The Robbo
BBC 1Xtra’s Robbo Ranx alongside Live Linq Sound will be returning to Elements in Bedford for a night called “The Linq Up”. For over 10 years, Robbo Ranx has been the No.1 Dancehall DJ in the UK and some, including himself would argue Europe. Headlining one of the biggest weekly dancehall radio shows in world and years on the dancehall scene means Robbo Ranx does not flop so catch him live at Elements alongside Live Linq Sound.

We join OFFICIAL Skepta tour
Skepta, Kiss FM’s Logan Sama and other guests. The truth is, club tours don’t get much bigger than this and The Large Mag is proud to be a sponsor of this tour which will be stopping at various Liquid venues across the Three Counties and South West. Starting this coming Friday 8th July, Liquid in Stevenage will be playing host to the first date of the tour with more dates at Liquid in Basingstoke, Windsor and last but not least, Luton on Saturday 23rd July.
So what can you expect for your £6? One of the best live performances from an artist that has been at the top of his game for a while. Skepta’s back catalogue of hits will last all night so expect to see live performances of tracks like ‘Rescue Me’, ‘Sunglasses At Night’, “Rolex Sweep’ and if you are really lucky, you might get a live PA of BBK’s ‘Too Many Man’.
Ticket prices start from £6 online and £8 on the door. For more info or to purchase tickets, head over to the Facebook group

Why Is UTR The Best?
Over the past two years, there has been a growing movement that has completely changed the clubbing the scene for under 18’s up and down the country. Gone are the days of standing up on one end of the hall with the boys as the girls stand on the other side separated by a gulf of frustration.
Under The Radar Events (UTR) are part of Rough Hill, The UK’s No.1 student and youth orientated events organiser. For the last three years, UTR have put on the biggest events for 16 to 18 year olds which have included acts such as Subfocus, Andy C, Tempa T, Chase & Status, Ms Dynamite, Skream & Benga, EZ, MZ Bratt, Boy Better Know, Donaeo and many many more.
Regardless of the location, each and every event is packed to the ceiling with ravers looking to sample the UTR hype for themselves. But why?
Where UTR succeeds where many others have failed is in the little details. The small little touches like DJ and PA selection. UTR seem to be one step ahead of the game by booking current and in demand acts.
When it comes to choosing a venue, Location Location Location is as important as choosing the right acts. These are the fine touches we are talking about. How many under 18 events take place in venues such as Brum’s Gatecrasher, London’s Coronet Theatre and Ministry of Sound?
These are just some of the reasons why UTR is by far the best under 18 clubbing experience. Expect big things from the UTR movement.
