Spectrum On most bank holiday Sundays of the year the Black Sheep Bar hosts a Drum n Bass spectacular with in house crew Spectrum. Previous Guests Pendulum, Hype, Adam F, Andy C, Bad Company, Bailey, Ed Rush, Flight, Flux, Grooverider, GQ, Hype, J Majik, Loxy, Mampi Swift, Marly Marl, MCMC, Moving Fusion, Nicky Blackmarket, Optical, Randall, Total Science, Fabio, Pendulum Created 6 years ago, the ever growing Spectrum is now recognised as one of Croydon's best alternative dance nights embracing the eclectic sounds of Drum n Bass and Jungle. From Bailey to Adam F, big names from both the old school and new school have passed through our doors, all bringing with them their individual vibe and charisma. By far though, Spectrum is most notorious for it's residents who between them are reaching the 4 corners of the globe with both their production and performances.  Residents Skope Skope started listening to DnB "ages ago", and quite simply, the genre is more of a religion to him then a style of music. It is within DnB that Skope found his first true love, the Amen break. He can not only cite the history of this chopped up intelligent Drum break like it were a mantra, but it he also utilisises it's power within the majority of the tunes he writes. Having been a producer for just over a year, Skopes is already making waves on the underground with signings that include "Africa is Zion" and ôJah Jah Man." His tracks have been heard everywhere from Technicality to 1Xtra as well as on his own weekly show on SelectUK FM. With nearly 10 years of DJ experience under his belt, including 4 years as a Black Sheep resident, Skope is finally gaining the recognition he deserves, receiving guest slots around the UK and Europe.
