We're back at The Art School and this time we're taking over two floors to celebrate the launch of our first vinyl release - DJ Milktray's "All Because The Lady Loves" EP.

To help us celebrate we've invited a very SPECIAL GUEST to come and duppy the rave - boy better know, it's SKEPTA.

Since founding BBK with his younger brother JME in 2006, SKEPTA has gone on to help grime gain universal recognition, guesting on P Diddy's "Hello Good Morning" track in 2011 and more recently collaborating with Brooklyn's RatKing and A$AP Mob's, Young Lord (A$AP Bari), on his latest single "It Ain't Safe".

Having just won a MOBO award for his single "That's Not Me" and with his new album "Konichiwa" just around the corner, SKEPTA finds himself at the forefront of what's currently being touted as Grime's revival.

Since his inception late last year, DJ MILKTRAY has earned himself the title of 'edit king' amongst the burgeoning new wave grime scene and found himself on tour slots alongside the likes of FKA Twigs & Ryan Hemsworth. His edit's are staples in sets from the likes of Slackk, Bok Bok, Cashmere Cat etc. and his name has become a regular feature in top ten lists in publications including The Guardian, FACT Magazine & Dazed.

On his "All Because The Lady Loves" EP, Milktray provides 4 rapid-fire grime edits of hip-hop/r&b anthems, carefully tailored to light up the dance floor. This home-town launch party promises to be a special one for the burberry clad renegade.

We're also taking this opportunity to introduce our two latest Astral Black signings, Bu$hido Brown will opening up Room 1 on the night alongside label boss, Jon Phonics. And Dressin Red, who will be holding down Room 2, alongside Jaisu, DJ Keoma & Edinburgh's very own Deburgh of Big N Bashy.
