HANNAH WANTS

It was Hannah Wants' unfinished 2013 remix for hapless R&B clown prince Dappy that brought her to the world's attention, but don't let that put you off.

The Birmingham producer's bass-driven house tunes are as far as one could get from the former N-Dubz man's weedy urban sounds - characterised by massive basslines played at ear-thumping volume.

This is a special one-off gig following her first UK headline tour earlier this year, so unless you're heading to the white isle this summer this will be your last chance to catch the 2014 Mixmag Star of the Year in action. Support comes from London grime and jungle DJ Barely Legal and bassy house man Tom Shorterz.

€¢ Hannah Wants, Saturday, The Arches, 10pm - 3am, £15

Kerri Chandler

Deep house fans will need no introduction to Kerri Chandler, the iconic New Jersey DJ responsible for some of the genre's biggest hits.

He returns to Subculture after a masterful set around this time last year, during their extended 20th birthday celebrations.

Chandler brings with him a catalogue of classic releases stretching back to the very early '90s, a deep, soulful sound and an inescapable aura of greatness, so there's little doubt that this is the most hotly-anticipated night of the week.

As always, local icons Harri and Dom will be on hand to warm things up.

€¢ Subculture with Kerri Chandler, Saturday, Sub Club, 11pm - 3am, £10

Robb Bank$

However authentic Robb Bank$ is or goes on to be, however experimental his music gets, he will always be in the shadow of his Dad's all-time classic hit It Wasn't Me. Robb is the son of Shaggy, the late '90s reggae-fusion phenomenon who also gave the world Mr Boombastic, Angel and even the legal concept of The Shaggy Defence.

His hyper-modern southern trap is on a different planet from his father's radio-friendly nonsense: all booming bass and woozy, synthetic noises - but he does retain his old man's love of a carnal lyric.

He's backed up at this late show by London rap duo Grammar School Educated and DJs playing trap, rap and dancehall.

€¢ Too Nice with Robb Bank$, tomorrow, SWG3, 10pm - 2am, £6

Critical Sound Showcase

Drum and bass label Critical was born out of DJ Kasra's North London front room in 2002.

Since then, it has spawned a club night at the city's legendary Fabric and pumped out a string of successful singles, including releases from Russia's Enei and Brighton's Foreign Concept.

This Art School showcase has sets from head honcho Kasra, Emperor, Ivy Lab and Oh My Josh.

Expect perforated eardrums and sore feet - in the best way possible, of course.

€¢ Critical Sound Showcase with Kasra, Saturday, The Art School, 11pm - 3am, £13

Bonkers

The mere mention of the word "Bonkers" will cause pangs of either fear or nostalgia for Glaswegian clubbers of a certain vintage.

The notorious Hope Street venue had a reputation which preceded it, but to its hardcore fans it was a shrine.

A loud, violent, vomit-scented shrine, yes, but a shrine nonetheless.

Alongside George Bowie and Tiger Tim, Noble Whitelaw was one of the club's most-loved DJs.

Join him, Gonzo, Bryan Love and Paul Norval for a night of fist-pumping and gurning at 69 Below, where the spirit and legacy of our beloved Bonkers lives on.

€¢ Bonkers, Saturday, 69 Below, 9pm - 3am, £8

Milk

It's hard to believe that Milk has been keeping indie kids dancing, winching and hungover for four years now. This fourth birthday rave features all the familiar trappings that make the night a favourite: it has good bands, in weird electro duo Carbs and fuzzy alt-rockers Poor Things and Amatr Art.

It has free cookies and white Russians.

And it has sweaty, youthful vibes in abundance, meaning the whole thing will be raucous, unhinged and an absolute tonne of fun. As always.

€¢ Milk is 4, Wednesday, Flat 0/1, 9pm - 3am, £4
