SILVA SNIPA 👑
The queen of darkside drum n bass (& bubbly garage) shares 5 classics systematically rinsed out at Singularity raves, from 2019 to present day. Real veteran business 😎
We think it's fair to say that when we met in 2018 (through this dumb app), our lives collectively changed. We were nothing but wee kids with an obsession for the old skool & on a mission to bring it back... Even though it was all just for fun, there was an element of militancy back in those times, somehow it really felt like it was the whole world VS our little crew of nerds.
From baffling elders with her encyclopedic knowledge of the old skool, to inspiring a whole new generation of youth to hop on the wheels of steel, it's been a pleasure to be apart of her journey from the beginning and watch her become one of the most respected selectas in the UK.
Ground Rules wouldn't exist without you Snipes. You are The Don, Da Bomb & The Master.
Slide 1: The Riddler - At The Time
Slide 2: Jack Shadow - The Master
Slide 3: Alibi & Leo - The Don (Remix)
Slide 4: Swan-E - Da Bomb
Slide 5: The Eliminators - Recall
The first slide is an adapted version of a promo video made for a @singularity.uk release by @ollierantdj 💯
SCOTLAND YARD & ALBION AUDIOOO 🥊
We're well chuffed to have the big bad Scotland Yard alongside Albion Audio powering the Crash Site stage. It's a lovely full circle moment as Jonny has been helping the Albion boys with learning the intricacies of running a soundsystem. Both of them side by side is gonna be 🤯
Nuff saiddd 🔥
SHAKEDOWN AUDIOOO 🪇🪇🪇
If you've heard this rig out & about over the years you know how deadly it sounds (and feels). Their team has been working on a new audio company @bpm.audio.uk which is what the new & improved Shakedown rig is made up of...
BPM M-4 Mid Tops
BPM K215
BPM FLM-24
BPM FB-221
They'll be bringing even more than what you're seeing in these pictures so just know your chest is getting seriously rattled 🦂 Those 24" subs don't fuck about !!!
FIRMLY ROOTED SOUNDSYSTEM 🌳💚
Would you just look at this beauty!
We can't wait to have the mighty Firmly Rooted powering the Terra Firma stage this year at Ground Rules.
Picture the scenes - It's 2PM, the sun is beaming, you got a pint in one hand, bifter in the other, a DJ you don't even know the name of is slinging down the grooviest funk you've ever heard out of these badboy speakers. Could life get any better? Nah not really.
Big ups to Jake and the crew, serious soundboys & all about the culture 💯

A flick through the Ground Rules sketchbook ✏️📒
The Ground Rules team couldn't be prouder of the visual identity we're developing. This is all thanks to the infinite hours put in by our lead illustrator @nix0nova 🤩🪄🌠
Here's a sneak peak of her sketches - some are layered with digital work. These ideas make up the basis of the intricate world we're building. This year, everything from the merch, staging & decor is 1000% DIY & raw-to-the-core but we're pouring our hearts into it and we can't wait for you all to immerse yourselves. It's beautiful to think this is just the beginning... 💯
Big shout out to everyone in the Team putting in the work to bring this world to life 🌈
The festival is just around the corner and we are mega flipping excited!! Hopefully you can join us and have a blasttt on the weekend of the 19th of June 🫶
DOUBLE DOSE OF DISTANT PLANET @ GROUND RULES 🥳🌌
It's no exaggeration to say that Louise & Simon are the godmother and godfather of the hardcore & jungle scene of today. We've always looked up to them, not just as artists and promoters, but as human beings ❤️ There's so much that can be said about their contributions to music and by extension our lives but we don't wanna get too emotional 😅
We felt it was only right to highlight the fact they're playing on not one but two stages this year: Gridlock & The Living Room. Each set is gonna be otherworldly and we can't wait...
Big up Louise Plus One & Hughesee 💯🔥
TINY TEA TENT @ GROUND RULES 🌻😍☕
We're beyond delighted to announce that the iconic Tiny Tea Tent will be at Ground Rules 2026! If you've been to Glasto, Boomtown or other major festivals, you'll know how comforting and inviting their space is. It's provided us and the crew a much needed refuge during these big festivals.
They are 100% solar powered and provide their own mugs (you're welcome to bring your own!), oh and most importantly they run 24/7 😉
