N-R-G × HYPA present: Sam Girling (UK)

Utrecht, calling UUUUUUU UK club heads! N-R-G and HYPA step into KABUL à GoGo’s main room, Abu, pushing their take on heavyweight underground club sounds. Two crews, one vision.

At the top of the bill, straight from the UK: Sam Girling. This Bedford-born producer hardly needs an introduction. Making serious moves across the UK and worldwide, Sam Girling moves between euphoric sounds and full-on dancefloor pressure, with garage, breaks, house and bass never far out of reach. His 2023 club anthem Ankerklause (Is The Feeling Only Strong?) was crowned a Future Dance Track ID on BBC Radio 1. And he keeps them gems rolling.

Unreleased cuts found support from Young Marco, DJ HEARTSTRING, Ben UFO and Palms Trax, with Young Marco later handpicking Girling to close FOLD before releasing his four-track EP on Safe Trip. Girling’s ascent has since taken him to The Warehouse Project, Drumsheds, The Cause, Thuishaven and Badaboum, with early 2025 marking another milestone: his debut tour of Australia. In 2026, AVA Festival and Wildeburg followed, and most recently, Ben UFO closed out Dekmantel with an unreleased Girling track alongside cuts from Call Super, Objekt and Pariah. Next big thing? A no-brainer.

N-R-G and HYPA kru’s take on support as hosts of the night.

This one’s gonna be a RRRREAAAL banger.

And there’s more: Birdcage Radio takes over the second room, Teatro, curating the sounds throughout the night. No stranger to Utrecht, the platform has grown from a podcast series into an online radio station, label and event series, bringing together DJs, musicians and creatives from Utrecht and beyond.

Get your tix, don’t lag. See u in the dance!
