JU LOVETT

Underground specialist Ju Lovett first gained notoriety in the UK in the late 90's and early 2000's when he became resident DJ and co-promoter for Rapture. One of the UK's most infamous underground parties of its time, regularly playing alongside the likes of The Stanton Warriors, Krafty Kutz and Phil Keiran to name but a few.
As well as the regular club nights, Ju became a massive name in the Free Party scene in Essex, playing some of the most talked about Pulse8 Warehouse and open-air raves of the early 21st century. Ju’s love for techno as well as been an outspoken anti-commercial music activist, made him synonymous with the underground scene that the UK has always been revered for.
As the resident DJ of previous institutions such as the aforementioned infamous underground party Rapture (UK), Creamfields UK Club Tour and The Aquarium in London to mention but a few. Ju Lovett, heavily influenced by the likes of Sven Våth, Richie Hawtin and the Berlin Techno scene, brings you a twisted experience to challenge the deepest parts of your mind and question your own reality.

Tobie Allen

Tobie Allen is not simply coming up from the underground; he is breaking out smoking, in his inimitable “take no prisoners” style. A relatively recent addition to the London scene, although a Cockney by birth, he cut his dance teeth in Cape Town club land where he is viewed as a household name where his legendary gigs at Cape Town’s leading clubs are regarded in reverential tones in “I was there” moments. Across South Africa he was always a main arena headliner at all major outdoor events and is now seen as one of the Godfathers of SA house music and a local legend in dance music culture in general. Through his many hats, as a DJ, Promoter and Producer, he was instrumental in creating the Cape Town scene, surely one of the most wild, wicked and vibrant nightlife destinations in the South..
Needing wider tapestries and seeking other challenges he returned to Blighty where he went back to basics. He listened, watched, interacted and paid his dues and in a very short time back in the UK, he built a solid reputation with his Bootleg Social, Prohibition and Tek Nation nights. Whereas Prohibition, Bootleg Socials baby sister for the last two years, has stayed true to its roots as a dirty, filthy backroom night, it is Bootleg Social, his signature night, which is cementing Tobie’s reputation as one of the most exciting talents on the scene.

Venue Details

Story Rooftop Lounge takes us back to basics. It brings a down to earth and real venue to Dubai that combines breathtaking sunsets, exhilarating sounds and an explosion of Peruvian flavours across its sharing menu. Appealing to those with a more rebellious approach to life, Story Rooftop Lounge is real, eclectic and aims to contradict the “bling bling” of Dubai.
