Paranoid London | Sat 12 Aug | Rainbow | from £13.75
Mysterious vinyl-only, no-interviews-please duo Paranoid London make acid house. Never content to take the well-trodden path, the DJ/production pair paint with the sonic palette of their hometown London while taking influence from across the pond in Chicago to create their somewhat anachronistic sound. Ever elusive, seeing these two in action is akin to spotting a rare bird while out walking in the countryside, so get your binoculars at the ready: blink and you’ll miss them. Jump-up drum & bass man Macky Gee also stars without the usual SaSaSaS entourage, alongside rising bassline selector Skepsis. See our feature here. www.skiddle.com

Fidget: Wittyboy | Fri 11 Aug | Rainbow | from £5.50
The final Fidget, and what a way to end eight incredible years of outdoor terrace raves across the Rainbow Venues. Former Niche resident Wittyboy has the honour of headlining this farewell show, a veteran of the noughties’ bassline scene and a key figure in the evolution of this sound into the UK bass hybrid it is today. Over the course of his career, the Leeds DJ/producer has featured regularly on BBC Radio 1Xtra, and has remixed tracks for the likes of Craig David, Roll Deep and the Sugar Babes… so you can expect this guy to give Fidget a proper send-off. www.skiddle.com
