Claire Marshall from Cologne's Traum Schallplatten stable lays down 2 hours of exploratory house music and intrepid electronic soundscapes. The key observation here is a certain type of composure and self assuredness in the selection of tracks on her compilations- this makes it entirely impossible to ignore her artistic abilities. Indeed, of all of the 35 artists actually performing at Passenger Presents Adventures in Aviemore - Clair is the artist i am most looking forward to witnessing - she will close off our launch party at The Vault on Friday 6th September after Darren from 808 State. Welcome to our head nodding society.

Andy Jackson aka J.Func is no Glasgow Stranger to a mixing desk or decommissioned circuitry board. He's beyond artistic experience and expressions. This insanely talented human has picked his top ten house tracks of all time, taken them home, put a roof over their head, then rebuilt his own artistic representation of these very tracks that make us all the custodians of the scenes that we call our own. AND THIS IS FRESH!!!!!

Passenger Festival, Aviemore, Vince Watson Live DJ Recording (Mic) 2024.

It will be an ordinary Saturday afternoon in Glasgow when you stumble upon the most extraordinary discovery. 

You’d heard whispers of this place. But today, something will feel different. The pub’s wooden doors will creak open for you by a friendly face and warm embrace, the smell of malt whiskey and Glasgow's past filling your nose. Inside, the atmosphere will be as it always was and is — dimly lit, with the chatter of locals buzzing softly, but there will be something else, something more electric in the air.

You will make your way to the back, where a hallway will lead to a little-used door, almost inconspicuous against the worn plaster.

What lies beyond won't just be another room; it will be a portal to another world.

The best sound system in the city — maybe in the entire country — The Collosus they call it, will rattle the walls.

Here, you can be anyone, or no one at all.

But this won't just be a place. This is a community, a space where you can escape, dance, and celebrate life in all it's chaotic glory. 

The very most perfect and blissful place to lose yourself, for but a while, in The Acid Arch.

AMK - Passenger @ The Acid Arch with  Red Pig Flower, Stelios Vassiloudis & DJ Q- Saturday 21st Dec

As a resident DJ of the Passenger DJ collective, Ian is no stranger to the rhythm of Glasgow's underground house scene. His upcoming set at McChuills, the legendary venue renowned for its intimate atmosphere and state-of-the-art sound system, is more than just another gig. It will be a milestone—a chance to weave together the music that has shaped him.

For Ian, warm-ups are not about big drops or thumping basslines. They are an opportunity to create anticipation, to take the crowd on a journey. His philosophy: set the mood, don’t steal the show. Each record will be chosen for its texture and depth, for its ability to whisper stories to those who listen closely.

“I want them to feel like they're walking into something familiar yet transformative,”

For him, DJing is not just about playing music or other people’s records—it is about curating moments. And on Saturday 21st of December, he will give Glasgow a momentary set to remember.

Ian Wilson Mix - Passenger - Red Pig Flower, Stelios Vassiloudis & DJ Q 21st December The Acid Arch

Stelios Vassiloudis crafted an unforgettable journey through deep, melodic house at our recent party in Glasgow, bringing the unmistakable essence of Passenger to life. 

His sound weaved together warm, rolling basslines, ethereal pads, and intricate percussion, creating a hypnotic atmosphere that kept the crowd locked in from start to finish. 

With a perfect balance of groove and emotion, he built a unique, immersive vibe—deep yet driving, introspective yet uplifting. 

A master of subtle progression, Stelios shaped the night with precision and soul, leaving an undeniable imprint on the dancefloor.

This is Passenger at it's Zenith.

Passenger MicroClubbing - An Andy Piacentini Mix.

We’re beyond proud to announce a new member of the Passenger DJ collective — the fiercely talented and deeply soulful Selkie from the wind-kissed shores of the Scottish Highlands and Islands. 

Selkie brings tribal, percussive house rhythms that pulse like ancient heartbeats, lifted by dreamy, melodic vocals and a shimmering Balearic spirit. 

Her sets feel like sunrise on Skye, like a warm breeze across the Hebrides — earthy and ethereal all at once.

Rachel's music isn’t just something you hear — it’s something you feel. Her deep love of nature, movement, and connection flows through every beat she plays. Her journey as a DJ began at late-night beach fires where she learned how to guide a crowd with instinct and emotion, weaving sound into stories. 

She joins the Passenger rotational collective not just as an artist, but as a kindred spirit. Passionate, independent, fiercely proud of her roots, and always in pursuit of something honest and moving — this represents everything we stand for as a Scottish music collective.

Catch her live, and you'll understand: this is music for open skies, open hearts, and open minds. Come feel what she brings — we promise, it’s something special 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏝️🚢🌊⛰️

Lance_Desardi_Live _Passenger Presents - Adventures_On_Arran - September 2025

There’s a weight to vinyl you can’t measure.
Not grams, not BPM, something older. Something human.

Myself and Andrea Piacentini, we are two shadows etched deep into the city’s underground nights, and we return to the ritual: 2 x turntables, a crate of wax and the quiet defiance of not giving everything away. 

No algorithm, no easy Shazam. Only ears, only hearts, only the dancefloor.

In a world where every song is named before it even ends, there’s rebellion in anonymity.

The needle drops and you don’t know — you just feel. A bassline pulled from some forgotten pressing, a hi-hat that breathes dust, a vocal ghosting through the room.

These are records that live outside playlists, out of reach of search bars. They exist only in that moment, in that booth, under our hands.

It’s not nostalgia. It’s devotion. 

Records force you to listen. 
To care for it, to know its imperfections.

We aren’t just playing tracks, we are speaking in an old language few still remember. 

Every mix is unrepeatable, every transition a secret shared with those who showed up, who stayed late, who paid attention.

This isn’t music to be owned; it’s music to be witnessed.

AMK Passenger Resident following on from the best DJ in Scotland Domenic Cappello - the postman always delivers they say - certainly did on this occasion. SUBLIME. 

Allan McKenzie, aka AMK, proved once again why he’s one of Passenger’s most versatile and accomplished resident DJs. A true journeyman of the scene and master selector, he has the rare ability to warm up, close, and move fluidly through tempos in any setting. 

At the Passenger Dance Tent at the Back Doune the Rabbit Hole Festival, following the legendary Domenic Cappello was no small task but AMK didn’t just fill those big boots, he brought the whole shoe shop with him. 

His set radiated raw energy and unrelenting pressure, culminating in a breathtaking, melancholy track that at one point had myself and others in complete awe.

It was an unforgettable performance, cementing his reputation as one of the best, and we’ll be back for more at next year’s festival, 17–19 July.



AMK replay - Back Doune The Rabbit Hole Fest- Saturday Night - Peak TIme - Passenger Dance Tent

Over the last 20 years i have held residencies at the world famous Sub Club in Glasgow, Mas, with Glasgow Disco King Billy Woods & various secret after-hours venues all over the city of Glasgow, particularly a certain one on Bridge Street, after a Pressure party, in olden times.

In Europe i have held a residency on the Electro Juice Boat in Bordeaux for 15 years and at the Wunderboat soiree's on Bordeaux's premier venue, The IBoat. 

My biggest influences are local legends Subculture, of Sub Club, Glasgow, where i've covered warm ups and closing slots for residents Harri and Domenic, my other main and equal influence is Slam, particularly during the Daft Punk years, me having ran their promo in the mid 90's and being part of their team that started and promoted the Pressure party in the late 90's.

Although i have also ran a lot of my own nights alongside managing the promotions team at the Sub Club for 10 years, it's the love and joy in performance that keeps bringing me back to being behind the turntables and playing records as a form of artistic expression.

Having lived in Den Haag Netherlands for some time, i am now back in Glasgow and available for bookings.

For booking requests please contact: jacquib1001@aol.com
