18:30 Doors + Dj setje 19:00 8 Bar - The Evolution of Grime (2022)

Together with Amsterdam-based music platform Steppin' Into Tomorrow we dive into the world of grime. Frantically narrated by its main stars, this film tells the story of the 20+ intense years of an electronic music style interwoven with genuine elements of London hip-hop. It delves into the vibrant sound system scene, pirate radio, self-publishing, MC battles documented on DVD, clandestine gatherings, government harassment, and the turbulent yet unstoppable influence it has had on modern, mainstream UK culture. Starring Dizzee Rascal, Skepta, Wiley, Dirty Danger, Kano, DJ Target, DJ Slimzee, Jammer, Lethal Bizzle and Ghetts.

Melkweg often hosts different types of programmes at the same time, such as concerts, club nights and films. Please note that there may occasionally be some noise pollution from other programmes during the screening.
