For Sunday May Day bank holiday Ormside hosts a full throttle night of music from a wide berth of highly esteemed artists. Welcoming Tronto’s own Trailcam (latest alias of E-Saggila) whose output evokes a rich and dub-laden sound rooted within house and techno. Recent output on Northern Electronics and Short Span Records demonstrates a world constantly shifting with clean edges eroded by repetition and drifts alike. Having played throughout the EU circuit it’s a pleasure to welcome her to London for their Ormside debut. Nkisi is the moniker of musician Melika Ngombe Kolongo - who, as no understatement, is a venue favourite. Influenced as much by ancient Kongo rhythms as rhythmic noise, Gabba and Belgian Hardcore her output reflects an acute focus on intensity. Off the back of intense roadtesting throughout Europe, Conrad Pack arrives for his first London liveset [and in fact gig] of 2026. Pack co-runs SELN Recording where his productions explore the fertile terrain between tuff soundsystem steppers and high-BPM techno. His more recent productions explore a distorted, hard-edged and dub-enriched techno sound which has been showcased on imprints including Lost Domain and most recently Semantica Records. Astrid Sonne is a composer hailing from Copenhagen, Denmark - now firmly located in London. Having garnered significant attention with her 2024 outing Great Doubt, highlighting the artist's ability to move from more abstract composition to a distinct vision of songwriting, she has also formulated a dedicated following via her monthly NTS residency. She will be closing the night with a focused DJ set. Canje (formerly Skins) is a Tamil-Canadian artist based in London. Originally a producer for Metro Zu & Goth Money in the 2010s Canje has since pursued his own sound through his own solo projects including the 2022 LP “Never Curse”. Following recent works for live scores and performances he will open the night with a signature DJ set.
