I present to you my second set from the Freezer Burn 2025 weekend. I had the great honor of being invited back to perform at the one and only Yellow Dubmarine sound stage for my second consecutive year. I played this set on the Sunday afternoon at 5pm which was one of the few times during the weekend that the sky opened up, giving the sun just enough of an opportunity to shine bright and stifle the rain that was so unpredictably relentless all weekend. 
It was the perfect vibe for a late afternoon set that led everyone into preparation for the Temple Burn later that evening. 
Big thanks to everyone who came out for this and to the amazing crew at Yellow Dubmarine for all their hard work and hospitality. A special thank you to Swaggacats for having a second hand wedding dress for me to wear and for the telephone headset which was perfect for creating a dancefloor full of wildly confused faces. 

Credit list coming soon.

The Halloween Mixtape

Welcome to volume 3 of The Beatles Dub Club! 

A special DJ set showcasing The Fab Four like you've never heard before!

DJ Chris Arnold takes you on a magical mystery tour of his collection of covers, remixes and tracks that sampled arguably the greatest band that ever existed - The Beatles. 

Expect to hear plenty of reggae, ska, latin, hip hop, dub, funk, house and even drum & bass takes on the wonderful music created by John, Paul, George & Ringo.

Since its explosive debut in 2021, The Beatles Dub Club has packed out stages at Glastonbury, Boomtown, Latitude, Isle of Wight, Camp Bestival, Green Man and far beyond.

The show has been championed by Fatboy Slim, who personally invited Chris to perform at his All Back To Minehead Butlins weekender, and has been tipped by Far Out Magazine as one of Glastonbury’s “Top 20 Alternative Acts to Watch”.

The Beatles Dub Club has since gone truly international, with acclaimed tours across Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Bali, while continuing to light up festivals all over the UK & Ireland - including standout sets supporting UB40, Craig Charles and The Wailers.

"If Sergeant Pepper had been a DJ, this would have been his set..." - Fatboy Slim

"Far from pure novelty, it is a wonderful way to celebrate music in all of its connective guises" - Far Out Magazine

"Something so effective, and seemingly obvious, that it feels as if it should have existed for much longer than its inception just a few years ago" - The Fix Magazine

"Loving it!" - Mary McCartney

D-Funk... 'Europe '16 Tour Mix'

Sydney-based, British born DJ, D-Funk has amassed a fair few achievements in his 25-years on the decks. Making his club debut at The Depot in Bristol in 1995, he’s gone on to DJ all over the world, playing notable sets at Space Ibiza and Ministry Of Sound and released on labels including Sunday Best and Bombstrikes. 

Getting his first set of decks at 14, Doug initially fell for the sounds of jungle and techno before a night dancing to house icon Tony De Vit in 1997 turned him towards the slinkier sounds of house music. 

His DJ career began to take off during his time at university in Wolverhampton where he started to pick up gigs at the Canal Club and Mezzanine, playing alongside DJs including Joey Negro, Mr Fingers, Scott Bond and Lisa Lashes, before a move to the South-Coast town of Bournemouth led him to eventually start his own night ‘Break Da House’ in 2004. 

The night took off, attracting big names including The Stanton Warriors and Plump DJs and eventually led to D-Funk’s first release, the ‘Electrotek’ EP after Dub Pistols headlined one night and Barry Ashworth from the band decided to release Doug’s music on his Westway label. The track found its way onto a TV ad in Portugal, as well as becoming a mainstay on Kiss FM’s breakbeat chart and gave Doug the confidence to pursue a career as a producer as well as a DJ, eventually leading to releases on Adapted Records and Ghetto Funk among countless other labels over the next 15 years. 

Moving to Sydney Australia in 2009, Doug started his label Upstart Music, releasing his own productions alongside tracks from the likes of Crackerz & Jam, Niko & Lyall and Rogue Robot and later started the funk label Grits N Gravy alongside friend and funk producer Philly Blunt, with the label winning the ‘Best Label’ award at Perth Dance Music Awards in 2010. 

Since living in Sydney, Doug has held down residencies at The World Bar and The Standard/Middlebar for the best part of a decade, as well as regular slots at Sash, Ivy, Goros, Hugos and many others. He’s played events for high profile companies such as Blackberry, Telstra, Jagermeister,  Sydney Cricket Ground & Saatchi & Saatchi. But there was still demand for him back on the side of the world and he regularly returned to Europe to play at Space Ibiza (including a set at the penultimate night of Carl Cox’s Revolution party) as well as touring in the UK, Europe, Asia and Canada. 

Now 25 years into his career, Doug is about to mark the 10th anniversary of his label Grits ‘N’ Gravy, with a compilation due this year mixed by himself and Philly Blunt, and has been busy producing house, hip hop and nu-disco with his current production partner Mr Doris.
