About Sacred Hive

An independent bass music promoter. We book the room, the sound and the lineup ourselves.

How we work

Two things we do not cut.

  1. Sound

    Funktion One, HSD Sound and other systems of that class. The rig is booked before the lineup is announced.

  2. Lineups

    Names you know and names you do not, put in an order that makes sense across a night.

Sound Haven is the one we build the year around: a bass music festival, outdoors, run by the same people who run the club shows.
