Featuring Dominick Martin aka Calibre has been responsible for some of the most beautiful tracks in drum & bass to date and continues to drop jaws worldwide with his sublime and sultry productions.

With a reputation stretching back over 15 years, DRS is a truly versatile MC, host and lyricist. Cutting his teeth and touring worldwide with the legendary Good Looking label, his soulful style on the mic and honest lyrics are unmatched.

As music from the Los Angeles area flourishes and swells across the globe, one of it’s most beloved and deeply rooted members steps in at a different angle. Music full of infectious melodies, subtle hip-hop and a kaleidoscope of sound. It's music for the imagination. What I consider the California take on acts like Boards of Canada, Teebs' music thrives at building warmth and wrapping around it's listener.

Not much needs to be said about the amazing Mark Pritchard, and those of you at the last Espionage in Jan know!He absolutely smashed it!

Vanese Smith aka Pursuit Grooves is an electronic music producer, vocalist and live performance artist living in Brooklyn, New York. ‘Foxtrot Mannerisms’ was her first release on Tectonic Recordings, seeing the Bristol label stepping sideways to explore genres different, yet related, to the dubstep it’s famous for. Her live show is a mix of energetic beats, cinematic interludes and sultry vocals that no one else on the scene delivers.

My religion, my choice to use it when it best suits me.

Which is mostly when it has nothing to do with god, and everything to do with irritating people.

Massive night...I'll bring the ammo

Bring on tonight!!

pritchard dropping dillinja was the best thing ever.

Great night!! Teebs was fantastic as expected. Stoked I scored some of his artwork too.
Set-up, lighting and visuals were awesome. Was very cool to see the VJ doing his thing in the crowd using an iPad!

Only downside were the drink prices. $10 for a Bulmers is taking the piss!

awesometown.
so drunky.
so much dancing.

Big ups to all who came down!!!! We were definitely treated to a good night of music. Diversity was fantastic. Teebs was awesome. Mark Pritchard was superb as always. Mark's set always takes the crowd on a journey. No need for double drops or special tricks, he is one of the best selectors we have the privilege of seeing play.
Calibre & DRS <--- great set and great music. My kind of d'n'b. Joe Seven playing to a full danceflooe in back room with his dnb was great to see and finally our own DJ DUST, her last set before moving to NYC. A big thank you for her work, tireless promoting and for playing at all The Operatives shows over the last however many years. She's been a big part of The Operatives and will be missed dearly by all. Wishing her all the best in the BIG APPLE!!!!

Next up for The Operatives, its Signal presents Chris Clark, Robin Fox, Mark Pritchard + more!!!!!!!!!

calibre in sydders was off the hook. absolutely epic for 150+ mins.

fare thee well, dust. sad to miss your sendoff.

I will miss you guys SO much! Has been amazing being part of the Operatives for the last 6 years or so. Couldn't think of a better group to be associated with. Can safely say no one pushes the underground sounds more tirelessly or with more consistent quality.

Anyway, getting emo. Was a great night. I can safely say that Mark Pritchard is one of my fave djs ever, such a class act. And Calibre and DRS were great too. I have to say that I wasn't that in to Teebs. I didnt think he had any flow to his set and he turned all the gains up WAY too high so it was a bit abbrasive.

was great party, shame there was no one really watching pursuit grooves as she was amazing!

i had FUN!

Agree with dust, Teebs didnt quite live up to my expectations but Harmonic 313, yet again, was AMA-ZING!

great crew, saw loads of people i havent seen for ages.

nice start with the hip hop heavy set from dust. mad boogie to joe's set. calibre delivered

BU uberlooseness. fikuss was so funny- drunkkkkkkers

mad night- danced solid for about 4 hours. not bad for an old mare. total death the next day though zomg

good to catch up with peeps- been a long time
