UKF will takeover Radio 1 Dance Presents throughout May

We’re proud to announce that UKF is the latest brand to take over the weekly BBC Radio 1 Dance Presents show.

Sub Focus & Wilkinson, Holy Goof & Notion, Zeds Dead & Jauz, Joyryde & Habstakt and Hybrid Minds & Koven are all lined-up throughout the whole of May as we take care of broadcasting duties at 3am every Friday night.

BBC Radio 1 Dance Presents is a new BBC Sounds series that launched this month with Defected. The theme is devilishly simple: a one hour mix from some of the most exciting artists from across the electronic music spectrum. Following Defected’s month long celebration of all things house music, we’re taking things in a heavier direction with a month of bass in all its forms and flavours.

Each show celebrates a different aspect of our low end universe and will be broadcast on Friday night / Saturday morning at 3am, then available through BBC Sounds to stream at any time for a month after. The takeover kicks off in the early hours of May 2 with a mix from none other than Sub Focus & Wilkinson.

Landing in the wake of a string of illuminating collaborations, plus their recent revelation they’re set to release an album together later this year, drum & bass B2Bs don’t get much more high profile than this. Setting the benchmark and tone for the whole takeover, the following UKF-powered Radio 1 Dance Presents shows take place on these dates…

May 9: Holy Goof & Notion

May 16: Zeds Dead & Jauz 

May 23: Joyryde & Habstrakt

May 30: Hybrid Minds & Koven 

That’s 3am every Friday night / Saturday morning on BBC Radio 1, launching May 2 with Sub Focus & Wilkinson. For more details visit the BBC website.
