Well, that’s it then; 2015 is now a thing of the past and Boiler Room is no longer a whippersnapper. Last year saw us turn five with a monster, multi-city birthday special putting the icing on hours and hours of broadcasting. But before warming the coals on another twelve months, a full debriefing is in order.
Handpicking a sub-50 collection of our finest moments was always going to be tough. Our schedule was teeming with more streams and variety than ever before. And if last year’s round-up was a key shift in terms of expansion and diversification, this year was an exercise in consolidation and improvement.
We opened the cork on a myriad of locations, sounds and scenes; from the well-trodden grounds of house and techno to unfamiliar territory via the likes of gqom and further beyond. Our In Stereos evolved into top-tier, engrossing experiences, Collections dug deeper into record crates and our parties stayed top notch.
Of course, there’s no way to comprehensively feature each and every set last year, but this list is as all-encompassing as it gets. So, after some serious pondering we’ve collated 25 über-special moments into a bitesize package. Press play and reminisce.
