Stamp The Wax leave the dock for the first of the Friday afternoon voyages with legendary selectors Sadar Bahar and DJ Okapi, who will be digging up everything from soul-classics, house anthems and 80’s South African grooves on the water. They are joined by Zakia and resident DJ Harri Pepper, for an exclusive soulful and jazz fuelled b2b. As the sun sets, London party-starters Make Me host techno and electro enthusiast Helena Hauff, alongside Identified Patient and Make Me’s residents.
