DEEPDIG W/ HASEEB IQBAL (4 HOUR SET) // DUB, FUNK & ELECTRONICA

After our roadblock launch of the Deepdig series with Saachi and the follow up with NTS resident DJ Martha, we return with DJ, broadcaster & author Haseeb Iqbal on Dec 9 for an extended set!

Haseeb promises to take us on a journey as likely to move through Cosmic Jazz as Pakistani cinema soundtracks Lovers Rock, or Latin Psych. Always deep with the selections, this effortless genre hopper knows how to fill a dancefloor with the unconventional.

Deepdig is a night curated by Grow, that brings some of our favourite DJs and producers to play the sets that they don’t usually get to play at bigger venues and festivals. Expect lengthy, no holds barred DJ sets in intimate settings, where they have free reign to take the crowd in whatever direction they like.

Previous guests for Deepdig in it’s current & past form include DJ Amir, Saachi, Martha, K15, Laani, My Analog Journal & Thristian.

Warm up TBA
