Boiler Room

Everything we do is rooted in the energy of the club culture and its ability to bring people together. Open dancefloors; where music, ideas and people meet. Boiler Room started with a webcam taped to a wall, broadcasting from a warehouse in London, opening a keyhole to the city's underground. DIY at its finest; raw, uncut, homemade. As an independent music platform and cultural curator we remain true to that history. Connecting club culture to the wider world, on screen and irl though parties, film and video. Since 2010 we've built a unique archive; featuring over 4,000 performances, by more than 5,000 artists, spanning 150 cities, enabling everyone regardless of where they live to enjoy the freedom it stands for. Our remit is to platform music in new ways - sound on for the voices and stories of the fringes of the mainstream.
