A midnight gathering for true Drum n Bass believers.

Jazzy / Liquid / Deep / Atmospheric / Halfstep / Jungle / Neuro ― 100% DNB all night.

Bass Cathedral – Drum n Bass Shimokitazawa is a sacred night dedicated to pure Drum & Bass.

No EDM, no House ― only Jazzy, Liquid, Deep, Atmospheric, Halfstep, Jungle and Neuro grooves.

Set inside the intimate, raw space of LIVE HAUS,

this night embraces the underground spirit of Shimokitazawa ― close, loud, and deeply immersive.

In a dimly lit room where bass resonates through every corner, we gather to surrender to rhythm and low-end pressure until morning.
