With arenas hosted by Garage Nation, Pack London, Innovation, Devotion DnB, The Asylum and Old Skool Heaven, One Dance Festival promotes dance music covering the full range of bass, starring the likes of MC Dynamite, Preditah, Hazard, Mampi Swift and a lot more.

With four huge arenas on show, we've cherry-picked five of the acts that we think will steal the show on July 12th at Streatham Common.

Cause & Affect

Chris Lorenzo is one of the most in demand producers at the moment, there's no denying that. His work with Hannah Wants has yielded a raft of floorfilling bangers in recent months, but it's his more tech house and UK garage blend of his and Kane, aka Cause & Affect that has been the catalyst for it all. Expect a ferocious four deck set that'll have you grinning from ear to ear.

SASASAS

Four of the biggest MCs in drum and bass exclusively link up for One Dance under the guise SASASAS. Backed by DJs Phantasy, Macky Gee and Alpha, the lyrical presence of Skibadee, Shabba, Harry Shotta and Stormin will be in full flow. This promises to be one of the most formidable MC displays of the summer, listen to their set from Westfest (above) to see why.

Tom Shorterz

Rainbow Venues resident and Rinse FM regular Tom Shorterz has been honing his DJing craft for some time now. Playing anchor to the midlands rave emporium, Shorterz regularly sets The Venues alight, getting revellers fired up for appearances from Annie Mac to Lee Foss, via DJ Sneak and Oneman. His ability to hype a crowd is a joy to behold, expect big things from his set.

Rat Pack

There's a killer old skool contingent taking over an entire arena at this year's festival, with Nicky Blackmarket, Baby D and of course Rat Pack amongst the stars. With over 25 years in the business, DJ 'Lipmaster' Mark and MC Evenson Allen have been there since the very start - the two together will be delivering a masterful throwback set like the seasoned pros that they are. 

Kurupt FM

We're not going to lie, we love the Kurupt FM crew. One of the few teams to successfully combine comedy and music (listen to their Charlie Sloth appearance above), the stars of People Just Do Nothing can be relied upon to brighten your festival experience with some choice bars from MC Sniper and plenty of banging UKG classics from DJ Beats.
