Dead Centre returns for 2026 with an all-night-long set from its founder, Innerkey. One DJ. One room. Full control from open to close. Free entry all night.

A familiar presence in the local underground, Innerkey has quietly built a reputation as a producer and selector with a wide but carefully considered reach. For this Valentine’s special, he takes the room on a five-hour journey - moving through deep, dubby, and slightly off-kilter electronic sounds, swung rhythms, rare grooves, and lesser-heard cuts pulled from across the spectrum.

The focus is on flow rather than flash. Records are chosen for their feeling and function, progressing patiently from warm, low-slung textures into more playful, rhythmic territory as the night unfolds. With the past six months spent largely in the studio, the set will also feature first-time plays, offering an early glimpse into where things are heading next.

This night marks the start of a new chapter for Dead Centre - a monthly series rooted in the local scene and the wider dance music ecosystem, with an emphasis on longevity, community, and sound over hype.

All night long. No shortcuts. Just music that moves.
