DATES FOR YOUR DIARY:*Saturday 22nd December 07-Obscene Xmas Party featuring the Obscene resident crew @ EgoABOUT US:
Obscene began as a response to the lack of nights in Edinburgh pushing forward local, home-grown talent. Having both been attending drum and bass nights religiously since the age of 15, promoters Alice Will and Krishma Bachoo decided it was time to be more than just bystanders of the Scottish drum and bass scene. With both promoters only 17 years old, Wednesday 13th February 2002 saw Obscene launched at La Belle Angele, one of the capital's best loved underground nightclubs. Although meant to be a one-off party, the night was a runaway success, pulling in the the largest week day crowd the nightclub had seen since the change in management a few years previous. Obscene enjoyed a happy spell at La Belle Angele until it was unfortunately burnt down at the end of 2002 in the Grassmarket fire .Obscene was lucky enough to move to The Venue, another of Edinburgh's finest clubs where we enjoyed rinsing it out until June 2006 when it was closed down. Since then Obscene has moved on to Club Ego's basement where you can hear the best of drum & bass and jungle every second month.
Since our first night at La Belle Angele, Obscene has been involved with almost every drum and bass crew in Scotland. Along with our involvement and dedication in helping to promote scottishdrumandbass.com and hosting the infamous Obscene Bambu bar sessions, which saw almost every local drum and bass dj come down and do battle, Obscene has provided a much needed platform for many talented people. Obscene has proved there is a market for a locally orientated drum and bass night and the rest as they say is history.
