Catch London's Lemto bring weighty UK garage at Gearbox
Lemto, Australian-born and now London-based, he’s part of a new UK garage conversation that values groove over gimmick. His productions weave house foundations with classic UKG swing and weighty basslines that feel physical without forcing the point. An EP on Interplanetary Criminal and Main Phase’s ATW Records, followed by the widely shared Back 2 Front, has helped sharpen that momentum, backed by nods from Kettama, Sammy Virji and Interplanetary Criminal. This night places him alongside a local-heavy lineup that reads like a roll call of curious selectors: Virion, MINT, MILO, XULALIT, ODD THOMAS and ORCHO. Expect a long-form exchange between styles rather than a race for peak moments, the sort of evening where tracks stretch out, connect and make sense together.
January 16. B200 via here and B300 at the door. Gearbox, The Warehouse Talat Noi, 9pm-2am
