With our award-winning degree courses, you can turn your passion into a career and step confidently into the world of music. That said, here are 5 iconic boiler room sets that are dominating the decks.
1. Yousuke Yukimatsu – Boiler Room Tokyo
In the world of electronic music, certain performances achieve legendary status. Yousuke Yukimatsu’s Tokyo Boiler Room performance has exploded to become the most-watched set in the platform’s archives. The secret to its magnetic pull? Yukimatsu’s raw, uncompromising energy. He never repeats a performance, instead weaving a fresh, electrifying journey that artfully fuses everything from trance and house to gabber and trap with an intensity that is nothing short of mesmerizing. And the best part? He’s bringing that same magic to London and Ibiza, which are also home to two of our campuses.
2. Charli XCX – Boiler Room New York
Charli XCX’s 2024 “Party Girl” Boiler Room performance was much more than just a DJ set – it became a cultural moment that reverberated beyond the music industry. Filmed in Brooklyn, the performance was pure electric chaos in the best possible way, going beyond your typical gig to capture the wild energy of an incredible house party. With creative partners A.G. Cook and George Daniel alongside her, Charli unleashed a dynamic fusion of irresistible pop hooks and raw, experimental beats. The excitement reached fever pitch with surprise guest appearances from Addison Rae and Julia Fox, proving once again that Charli is one of pop music’s boldest and most innovative artists.
3. Fred Again – Boiler Room London
Fred again..’s iconic Boiler Room set did more than get people dancing. It made them feel something profound. Instead of just spinning tracks, the Grammy-winning producer practically rebuilt his songs live on his MPC, masterfully chopping and flipping voice notes from friends, and fleeting moments of life with breathtaking precision. This raw, transparent process, combined with the electric energy of the crowd, created a powerful atmosphere of shared joy and vulnerability that you can feel through the screen.
4. horsegiirL – Boiler Room Mexico
In a music industry that can sometimes feel quite serious, horsegiirL is refreshingly different. Her recent Mexico City performance, which has been hugely popular, perfectly captures what she’s about; it’s wonderfully playful and absolutely entertaining. She performs as “Stella Stallion,” her horse-masked alter ego, creating something truly special. Behind that quirky horse head, she mixes trance, hardstyle, and happy hardcore in a way that’s hard to resist. She’s cultivated a community that embraces the fun, with fans often arriving in “on-brand” attire. What’s brilliant is that behind all the theatrical fun, she’s a talented producer and musician who creates her own music.
5. Chase & Status – Boiler Room London
Chase & Status are undisputed titans in the drum & bass world, and their 2023 London Boiler Room set proved exactly why. This wasn’t just another performance; it was a proper statement that was instantly hailed as a must-watch for DnB fans. With Saul Milton (Chase) behind the decks, what followed was an hour of uncut rave energy. With the crowd’s energy amplified by the iconic MC, Flowdan, the set didn’t just capture the essence of a rave; it became one of the most-watched, most-hyped moments in the Boiler Room archives.
