Gallery: RBMA UK Tour Manchester

This past week, the RBMA UK Tour drew to a close in Manchester, with club nights, shows, lectures, workshops, live radio broadcasts and special events from some of music’s most eminent emissaries. Peppered with collaborations between local heroes, institutions and labels, alongside a roster of world-class heavyweights, the programme featured a lecture from Skepta plus a blowout Tropical bash right after. There was also a night of techno excellence at Sankeys, with bass boss Zed Bias taking the stage with a cohort of local heroes. To cap things off, PRhyme (AKA Royce Da 5’9” and DJ Premier) hosted a workshop before playing with dancefloor apostles Jazzy Jeff and Todd Terry.
