Headliners Pendulum (DJ set) are a drum 'n' bass trio from Perth, Australia, who grew up playing in punk and metal bands. Their debut album Hold You Colour sold almost a quarter of a million copies and its follow-up, In Silico, finally arrived in May. It reached number two in the UK charts despite receiving mixed reviews and saw the boys incorporating even more rock and electronic influences into their sound.

"While technology continues to constantly advance production techniques, something has been lost in the process - the idea of leaving yourself open to experience something you don't necessarily find in everyday life," they say.

"That was the energy we picked up on and liked about electronic music when we first got into it. It felt like the same energy found with bands like Led Zeppelin. To us, it makes perfect sense to combine the best of both worlds."

Rodney P has been a UK hip-hop legend since his days in the pioneering London Posse. His reggae-inflected style has seen him work with everyone from Roots Manuva and Mark B to Brand New Heavies, Roni Size and Bjork. His radio work has included an acclaimed show on 1Xtra with Skitz, as well as documentaries about Sierra Leone and Apartheid in South Africa.

He recently appeared on three tracks on the Dub Pistols' Speakers & Tweeters album.

Marc Mac is one half of 4Hero and has been an important figure in dance music since the breakbeat hardcore era of the early 1990s and has worked as a producer for the likes of Jill Scott and Terry Callier. He will be appearing alongside MC MG, who co-wrote Superstylin' with Groove Armada and regularly tours with Bugz In The Attic.

London-based d 'n' b duo Chase & Status have notched up a series of anthems since they first appeared in 2004, including Love's Theme, Duppy Man and Come Back.

They also make breakbeat tunes under their Loopdigga alias, which goes some way to explaining their genre- hopping DJ sets and the diverse nature of their output.

Their 2006 collaboration with Jenna G, In Love, was voted single of the year by BBC 1Xtra, and the pair recently signed to Andy C's Ram label.

Ctrl Z made an instant mark on the breakbeat scene with their debut single, 2005's Disko/Pain. Dash and Inch met through a Community Music Programme scheme in London and have gone on to release more than 20 singles and enjoy several successful tours of the US.

Brighton trio Qemists' first release was a magnificently overblown remix of Coldcut's Everything Is Under Control on Ninja Tune in 2005. They'll be performing a two-deck, two-laptop set with live remixes.

Sinden was the only DJ invited to become a resident at Basement Jaxx's Inside Out nights in Brixton. He now has Fabric residency and Kiss FM radio show to his name, and his album with the Count Of Monte Cristal (aka Joshua Harvey) is due out on Domino later in the year.

Radio 1's Gilles Peterson, Tru Thoughts' Hint and Rob Luis, IC3 and Youngsta complete the bill.

  • Doors 10pm, wristband collection from The Brighton Coalition box office from 2pm onwards. Limited £10 tickets still available from Rounder, Resident, Dance2 and www.ticketweb.co.uk.
