Nothing Else Matters runs every Tuesdays with explosive mix of guests including Diplo, Miane, Gorgon City, MK, Darius Syrossian, Sam Divine, Ben Hemlsey, Becky Hill, Sonny Fodera, MK, Fisher, LF System, Airelle Free and more

World renowned dance music tastemaker Danny Howard has carefully curated an unmissable season of weekly events at BCM. The BBC Radio 1 regular will play every Tuesday from June 25th alongside a diverse mix of friends, legends, and the next generation stars that he has helped platform on the radio. 

Howard has long been a regular at BCM, where he has championed the most fresh and forward thinking dance sounds on the planet. He heads up his own Nothing Else Matters label and party series and has made many a new star off the back of his famously influential Radio 1 show. Plenty of them now play at BCM this summer, including label artists and radio regulars he has always been keen to champion. 

BCM itself has just undergone a huge renovation and is now ready to open its doors and offer the sort of thrilling experience it is known for around the world. The sounds system and the production are out of this world, and now Danny Howard's residency is all set to maximise that all summer long. 

Says Danny, "Hosting my own weekly party in Mallorca has become a staple of my summer and something we’ve built over the years into one of the biggest nights of the week in the resort. This year we’re taking it to the next level with some of the hottest global names in dance like Fisher, Gorgon City, Sam Divine and Sonny Fodera coming back to play with the addition of some new faces I’m excited to welcome to BCM such as Diplo, Hannah Laing, LF System and Franky Wah. Not only that, I’m delighted to welcome some names who have released records on Nothing Else Matters to the party with HoneyLuv, Fleur Shore and Miane all set to make their debuts. If you’re heading to Mallorca this summer, it’s all about Tuesdays!"

This is going to be a summer like no other at BCM with Danny Howard at the helm and a global roster of DJs all serving up the cutting-edge sounds.
