Rebel Union

08/06/2026

Thank you to everyone who joined us for Rebel Union in FOLD’s Steam Room last Saturday, a special gathering held in memory of Justine Cullen.

The night was more than an event - it was a celebration of a remarkable life and a community coming together to honour someone who meant so much to so many. We knew that music, dancing and bringing people together meant so much to Justine, so hoped there could have been no more fitting tribute than a room full of friends, family and fellow ravers sharing those moments in her name.

The love, warmth and support shown for her husband D.A.V.E. The Drummer throughout the night was palpable, and it was great to see their son Alec front and centre all evening also.

Musically, the night delivered from start to finish. Alba Heidari opened proceedings with a vibrant selection of bouncy, chunky grooves that immediately set the tone. Zebedee B2B Syber Symon captured the spirit of classic underground warehouse culture with a set rich in authentic 90’s energy. Gizelle B2B Madame G steadily built the atmosphere towards a bubbling, sparkling crescendo before D.A.V.E. The Drummer took control with an unforgettable performance of driving, uncompromising techno that shook the room to its foundations.

Aaron Liberator B2B Sterling Moss delivered a powerful showcase of London acid and techno at its finest, while Darc Marc B2B Mainliner raised the intensity even further with their signature rolling grooves - a perfect combination from this dynamic duo. Michaela B2B Cinquedea demonstrated the relentless energy and chemistry that have made their recent collaborations so compelling, before Voicedrone B2B James Newmarch brought the evening to a close with a masterclass in technical precision, musical storytelling and impeccable selection - an ending that perfectly reflected the world-class standards that have helped make FOLD such a respected institution on the global underground circuit.

We would also like to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone at FOLD whose hard work helped make the night possible, including Lasha, James, Mihai, Ali, Celia, David, Tee and the wider team. We are incredibly fortunate to work alongside such dedicated and passionate people, and their contribution is never taken for granted.

Most importantly, thank you to everyone who attended and helped create such a meaningful atmosphere. The evening served as a reminder that Justine’s spirit continues to live on through the people she inspired, the friendships she created and the dancefloors she illuminated throughout her life.

Rebel Union will now take a short autumn break before returning for Acid Xmas in FOLD’s Steam Room on Saturday 19th December. Save the date 🎅🏻

Introducing our final guests for Rebel Union in FOLD’s Steam Room on Saturday 6th June - two artists deeply woven into the sound, spirit and identity of FOLD itself: Voicedrone & James Newmarch.

Since the earliest days of FOLD, Voicedrone and James Newmarch have developed a uniquely intuitive connection behind the decks - forged through countless hours, marathon sessions and years immersed together within London’s underground. What they create is far beyond a standard back-to-back set: it’s an evolving conversation built on trust, tension, spontaneity and total dancefloor awareness.

Voicedrone lays the foundations with pressure and controlled intensity - weaving together techno, broken rhythms and unexpected turns that push the soundsystem to its limits while keeping the room locked in suspense. There’s a raw sense of movement and control in every transition, balancing excitement with precision in a way that feels unmistakably rooted in the FOLD sound.

James Newmarch brings counterbalance: powerful selections, playful shifts and instincts that inject momentum into every moment. Moving fluidly between genres and textures, he opens space where tension builds, lifting the room before driving it straight back into the pressure. Together, the pair create a relentless flow of energy and emotion - the kind of set where hours disappear and the dancefloor never wants the night to end…

Introducing our next guest for Rebel Union in FOLD’s Steam Room on Saturday 6th June - the Irish commander of hard grooves making her return to the capital: Cinquedea.

Dublin-based DJ and producer Deborah Grattan, better known as Cinquedea, has rapidly established herself as one of the most exciting rising forces within the hard techno underground. Since first stepping behind the turntables in 2020, her uncompromising sound and high-impact energy have earned her a growing reputation across Ireland and the UK - blending pounding techno pressure with groove-heavy rhythms, industrial textures and hip hop-infused attitude.

A resident for Birmingham’s Collide and host of a monthly show on Dublin institution Power FM, Cinquedea has become a familiar name across clubs, festivals and underground parties alike. Alongside performances throughout the UK and Ireland, she remains deeply connected to the free party movement through appearances with Interruption and Annaghtek - carrying the raw spirit of underground rave culture into every set.

With releases on respected imprints including Hydraulix Records, Cinquedea continues to push her sound forward with fierce momentum and unmistakable personality. Following previous standout appearances at FOLD, she returns once again armed with relentless grooves and pure dancefloor energy guaranteed to move the room from start to finish.

Next up for Rebel Union in FOLD’s Steam Room on Saturday 6th June - the Polish underground legend bringing relentless techno pressure and decades of rave energy to the dancefloor, flying into London for this special event: Mainliner.

With more than 25 years dedicated to the acid techno movement, Wrocław native Mainliner stands as one of the longest-running and most respected champions of the Polish underground scene. Through his work as a DJ, promoter and scene-builder, he has played a pivotal role in shaping Poland’s acid techno culture - connecting generations of ravers through uncompromising parties, heavyweight line-ups and pure DIY spirit.

As co-organiser of the influential Audio City events between 2006 and 2013, Mainliner helped elevate Wrocław into one of Eastern Europe’s key underground destinations, bringing world-class artists to the city while nurturing emerging local talent and a thriving community that continues today. Alongside this, his legendary Back To The Acid parties have kept the raw spirit of late ‘90s and early 2000s acid techno alive for decades, becoming a cornerstone of the local scene.

Renowned for explosive performances and masterful three-turntable sets, Mainliner has spent decades devastating dancefloors with maximum energy, precision mixing and relentless grooves. From clubs and festivals across Poland to international appearances - including a performance alongside the Stay Up Forever crew at their 30th anniversary celebration at FOLD - he continues to evolve while carrying the uncompromising spirit of underground acid techno into the future.
