About this event
SERVE is London’s underground night with one mission: to bring it back to the music. No gimmicks, no distractions. Just a dark lit room, a proper sound system, and DJs who know how to move a floor.
Rooted in the spirit of rave culture, SERVE is a free-flowing musical journey where genres dissolve and quality leads, from deep and vocal house to raw techno, acid, tribal, breaks and beyond. We trust our DJs to read the room, tell a story, and take the dancefloor where it needs to go.
At SERVE, everyone is a headliner. We champion emerging queer artists alongside seasoned selectors, building lineups that value skill, selection, and shared energy over hierarchy or hype.
Lineup
Bertie
J. Aria
J. Aria's fierce-groove dramatics have seen them make waves across the world, with appearances at institutions Basement, Fabric, Block9, Body Movements and more. With acclaimed worldwide releases on Nervous Records, and their debut EP ‘PUSSY SUITE’ on Adonis Records - their genre-defying sound is drenched in soul - pulling fierceness and romance from all corners of dance into a singular and commanding voice.
Elwood
Elwood is a compelling presence in Barcelona’s queer electronic scene. With a genre-transcending approach and a finely cultivated sonic sensitivity, his path weaves together family heritage and artistic vision. The son of an ’80s DJ and a fashion-driven mother, Elwood has shaped those influences into a musical and aesthetic identity entirely his own: refined, fearless, and deeply rooted in underground culture. His mission goes beyond selection, he seeks to pay tribute to club culture as a space of expression, community, and liberation. Trained as a graphic designer and driven by cross-disciplinary creativity, he ran an art gallery in El Raval, Barcelona, for two years, contributing to the city’s artistic fabric. But it’s in the booth where Elwood reveals his full power. His sound, grounded in early New York house and Detroit techno, avoids the easy and the predictable: immersive sets, emotionally intricate and always built with a narrative thread for a crowd that truly listens. A familiar face within Barcelona’s vibrant queer nightlife, he has made discerning audiences dance in venues such as Laut, where he founded the Dance Elements party, and Macarena Club, where he has been a resident for three years at Selectors by Anika Kunst. More recently, he has performed at Sala Apolo for ANTI, sharing the lineup with legends like Vitalic. He has also brought his sound to Madrid, playing at events like My Pleasure and Mordisko, both key spaces in the city’s LGBTQ+ electronic scene. With a wide trajectory in the industry, Elwood has worked as a promoter, label manager, booker, PR, and Music Business lecturer. His contribution extends far beyond the dancefloor: he stands as a bridge between generations, genres, and scenes. Authentic, sophisticated, and consistently committed to electronic music as a form of art and cultural expression.
S_STEELE
His sound balances groove and intensity,hypnotic basslines, rolling percussion, and euphoric builds designed for the late hours. With standout performances at Fabric, Ministry of Sound, Scala, Electrowerkz and Dalston Superstore, STEELE has quickly established himself as a versatile and trusted name across the capital’s dancefloors. His dynamic, crowd-responsive style has seen him share lineups with Hannah Holland, J. Aria, Aiden Francis and Julie Desire,always delivering energy that bridges underground grit with main-room power.
