This Friday we make our long-awaited return to Gaffe with @michelle__live and @bunney_____ 🪷
We have an incredible lineup of music to bring you from four very talented people. We can’t wait to welcome you to Gaffe for a very special night!
Tickets are now on final release - head to the link in our bio to grab yours now 🔗
Exchange 09 - from label debutants Omas & Oscador - is available to buy from our Bandcamp now!
As it’s Bandcamp Friday, for today only, 100% of the proceeds will go straight to us, so it’s the perfect time to get these downloaded for your upcoming sets and support our label.
Michelle’s inimitable sound has graced some of the scene's best-loved labels, most notably her recent album on Cabaret, along with her own Element of Impact label and beyond.
Her new live set is packed with unreleased material, ready to play at Gaffe in just over a week. She's joined on the night by Bunney, and residents Birrell and Alex Galloway.
Final few second release tickets are still up for grabs via the link in our bio. Don’t miss this one!
On 8th May, along with Michelle and Bunney, we have a rare 3-hour closing set from residents Alex Galloway and Birrell. The pair are meticulous diggers and skilled DJs in their own right, but always bring a little extra out of each other when playing back to back.
Alex and Ed have sculpted the sound of 199 from the very beginning. Their sets are adventurous yet consistent, circling the acid-y outskirts of techno and electro and pulling from a range of eras and influences. Often trusted with opening our nights at Gaffe, the pair have a rare chance to go full tilt from 3 until 6 next Friday.
Tickets are moving quickly. Head to the link in our bio to grab yours now!
Joining us alongside Michelle on Friday 8 May, is the immensely talented @bunney_____
A longtime friend of 199, Bunney has steadily risen to become a prolific figure on the London circuit and beyond, and has been a favourite of ours for years. The Triskl founder has always struck a tasteful balance between experimentation and dancefloor focus, delivered with rare restraint and care.
She will be opening Gaffe for us on the 8th with a two hour set, setting the tone with wiggling, textural minimal techno and electro. Head to RA to grab your second release ticket now!

With now just one month to go until our final party before the summer, here’s a taste of what to expect from Michelle on 8th May at Gaffe.
Michelle is a live-only performer, meaning everything you hear is created by her in the studio, and woven together on the spot using controllers and sequencers. A regular performer at Houghton, fabric, Womb, Watergate, and of course her native Phonotheque in Uruguay, she frequently soundtracks the world’s top parties and it’s easy to hear why.
Her raw, emotive sound is a unique blend of electronic and acoustic elements, often leaning into UK club sounds through breakbeats and classic samples.
Trust us when we tell you this will be a real spectacle inside the newly-revamped Gaffe in North London. Tickets are moving quickly!
On Friday 8th May, we’re bringing the incredible Michelle to Gaffe for a live set.
Born in Uruguay and raised among one of South America’s most influential underground movements, Michelle is known for immersive live-only performances that sound completely unique.
Here she is performing at Brave Factory in Ukraine last summer, which you can watch in full on YouTube for a taste of what to expect.
Head to our bio to grab your ticket while they’re still cheap! This is our last party before summer and it’s going to be a big one.
