With the lauded metropolitan festival Love Saves The Day primed to get underway on Saturday May 24th and Sunday 24th May, the hugely popular two dayer this year bolstered further by carrying the day time love vibes through into the wee small hours, thanks to a series of belting after parties taking place at some of the cities coolest nightspots.

Love Saves The Night: Motion // Saturday 24th May

Leading party starters Edible and Just Jack join forces to establish two warehouses of house and techno at Motion to end the first day of LSTD in style.

Chicagoan legend Derrick Carter, Bristol based bass pioneer Eats Everything (see him in action above), deep and tech exponent Subb-An, Siberian underground enchantress Nina Kraviz, and New York based Underground Quality boss Jus-Ed are just some of the big names providing a sonic feast for the discerning rave connoisseurs out there. Bag your tickets here.

Love Saves The Night: Lakota // Sunday 25th May

Sunday night sees another two fierce afterparties undertaken, with the installment at Lakota seeing a blistering selection of drum n bass, footwork, trap and dubstep artists brought to Bristol thanks to Trap Magazine & Durkle Discopresent.

Watch out for the likes of drum n bass and dubstep trailblazer Breakage, Paul Woolford's off kilter jungle project Special Request (enjoy some of that above), as well as the tough, forward thinking dubstep from Pinch and Blazey, the high octane drum n bass and footwork of Sam Binga, and tonnes more.

Love Saves The Night: Motion // Sunday 25th May

Returning to Motion, Hypercolour, Room 237 and Wilde Renate present the last of the after parties, and what a monster it is. Warehouse one will see the insanely talented Jamie XX join John Talabot and Axel Boman's joint venture Talaboman, as well as an unmissable set from acid veteran and Warp records mainstay Luke Vibert.

The appropriately named 'The Tunnel' will see Perc (listen to his beastly 'Take Your Body Off' record above), Truss and Tessela unleash an unhindered, distorted, bone rattling display of techno might. Peak and Swift, Sebastian Voigt and Shanti Celeste round off the top notch after party. Head here for tickets.
