Bump N Hustle: 30th Anniversary (Purveyors of Quality Grooves 1992-2022)
Friends Bob Povey & Jon Coomer came together as Bump N Hustle in 1992. Both DJs were individually guests and residents at some of the souths top club music venues leading up to the resurgance of the weekender events at the end of the 80's.
One of the countries best events happened in Bournemouth at the Showbar on the pier during the Summer bank holidays and it was at the end of this event that Bob was asked to run another event on a more regular basis. Bob asked Jon to come on board with the project and they gave life to Bump N Hustle in October 1992...
The event had one sole aim. To play dance music targetted at people that wanted a place to call their own, current street soul, garage,house,jazzfunk and rare gems in one room all night long... The next 10 years brought together a 3 room event supported by a group of resident djs including Trevor Nelson, Simon Dunmore, ATFC, Aitch B, Ronnie Herel, Mad Flava, Terry Hunter & DJ Bigger. The rest as is history still in the making...
