When & Where

18.02.2025 I 7PM - 10:30PM

Sama Bankside 3 Robinson Road Southwark SE1 8BU

What's The Deal?

ODN is not a really an open deck event – more so what we’ve come to call it.

The majority of us who attend are professional DJ’s – who are not looking to promo, not looking for exposure just catching up whilst a few of us spin random sets. 

The only time it is has open deck is when we have a scratch jam near the end for everyone to join in (if you do scratch) around 10pm.

We see other DJs in our community doing their thing over social media, over whats app group chats & then end up working the same evenings away from each other, that’s why held on a Tues as most DJs are not booked that weekday.

No entrance fee | No guest list or sign-up required | No Instagram account.

Please do not contact Sama venue – all the information is here on this page.,

Few More Details

We recommed

There will be many DJs, best to arrive by 7.30 pm – this allows enough time to have a good chat!

The Music

ODN started as a vinyl night, but now Serato / Rekordbox on the 1200s using timecode vinyl or on the XDJ XZ.

The event is not music-orientated, more so about catching up and networking.

Expect to hear hip-hop, soul, funk, D&B, bass-line, 2-step underground garage, and many other genres. Not mainstream commercial party DJ-styled sets.

DJ Line Up - List TBC

DJs equipment: Technics 1200’s & Pioneer DJM S9 & Pioneer XDJ XZ

Scratch Jam

The last 30mins is for the itchy fingers – we do not expect everyone to participate.

Those who jump on the cuts no need to be shy, don’t feel intimidated – it’s all fun and games & not a competition.

Instructions To Playing DJ's

Please adhere to timings as there is only 180mins and 8 DJs including a 20min scratch jam

Technics 1200 turntables & needles set up there – just move from one laptop to the other on S9 to allow all DJs a fair clear 20mins set. 2x 15mins delays forecasted

The XDJ – XZ is connected, most of us know this.

If DJs are on list & late they will lose the set. The previous DJ will play continue playing over the set or a newcomer will be on standby.
