BBC Asian Network University Tour
Despite a title thought up by your mum, there is a glittering array of Brit-Asian talent here: Bobby Friction, DJ Kayper, Mentor Kolektiv and guests - including Punjabi Hit Squad - do it for the kids. · King's College, London, Thursday 30

Massive Attack
Probably not the band themselves, but one half (Daddy G) playing classic reggae alongside a very rare appearance from legendary DJ, film-maker and onetime BAD member, Don Letts. Surely unmissable. · The Tube Bar & Lounge, Bristol, Friday 1

Totally Trashed
That's trashed as in the look, not necessarily the drunken state you're in. Though, who knows? With raw, fuzzed up sounds of garage punk and rocking roll blasting out all night, how you gonna shake your hair and hips all night? · Comfi Club, Bristol, Monday 27

Turntable Cafe
Forget Kraftwerk. Forget acid. The most influential piece of electronica in the last 40 years has to be the Doctor Who theme tune. The likes of Sonic Boom pay their respects to the unsung heroes at the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. · Purcell Room, London, Thursday 30

The Insomniacs Ball
For a certain clubber, 10.5 hours of mashing doesn't constitute a sleeping disorder, but the second Insomiacs Ball promises massive indie delights - and you'll still be tucked up in bed by dawn. · SEOne, SE1, Saturday 25

Together
What are you coming for? A rare Etienne De Crecy set, or the free haircuts? Lindstrom & Prins Thomas live, or the fancy dress prizes for best charity wear? Kids In Tracksuits or the swap shop? A veritable smorgasbord of frugal fancies. · Turnmills, EC1, Saturday 25

Hotfoot
LTJ Bukem's classy brand of atmospheric, cerebral drum'n'bass has earnt him a loyal following - even those who normally like it a bit harder and heavier. And here's hoping he reigns for a good while yet. · Birmingham, Saturday 25

Massive Attack
Probably not the band themselves, but one half (Daddy G) playing classic reggae alongside a very rare appearance from legendary DJ, filmmaker and one-time BAD member, Don Letts, Surely unmissable stuff. · Bristol, Friday 1

The Tony Blair Experience
Here's a first for club night classification - all the tunes tonight come from the Blair era of 1997 to present. Coming next week, the Sir Anthony Eden Experience, with a stack of Suez Crisis toe-tappers. · Swansea, Thursday 30

Tranzmission
Now, here's a fully fledged recipe for disaster. Primal Scream and ex-Stone Roses bassist Mani plays a DJ set of indie, rock, psychedelic and techno with the band themselves playing live afterwards. Messy, messy, messy. · Bristol, Tuesday 28

North

Back To Basics 15th Birthday
These guys certainly know how to throw a party. Lashings of underground house, provided by one of the best resident teams in the country, and Andy Weatherall. · Leeds, Saturday 25

Development
Superb young night, proving there's life left in house music. Wildly enthusiastic guest DJ Kerri Chandler does his inspiring all-singing, all-dancing bit for the crowds. · Manchester, Friday 1

Electric Chair
Residents The Unabombers do battle with brilliant, young German production outfit, Ame, in the main room, so expect deeper than deep electronic house music tonight. · Manchester, Saturday 25

Metropolis
The north-conquering drum'n'bass brand visits Leeds, bringing special guests LTJ Bukem, DJ Hype, Mampi Swift, Subfocus, Sigma and many more to the party. · Leeds, Saturday 25

Mr Scruff
Perhaps the UK's finest freestyle DJ, currently doing the rounds across the country's university campuses. Expect a rich smorgasboard of funk, soul, hip-hop and house. · Newcastle upon Tyne, Sunday 26

Scotland and Ireland

Concept
A crazy idea that just might work, as 22 DJs attempt to work a crowd across five rooms with Dutch hard dance don DJ Isaac headlining alongside Dublin's Pilgrim and LED, plus local talents Tizer and X-Ray. · Molly Sweeney's Complex, Omagh, Saturday 25

Lost
Self-proclaimed dumb blonde trance generator Anne Savage fills the guest slot at the city's much-bombed Europa Hotel, supported by Gleave Dobbin, Ryan Blair, Danny Beggs and a Wonderbra, probably. · The Elephant Rooms, Belfast, Saturday 25

Subculture's Un-Birthday
A premature 20th birthday celebration in true Alice In Wonderland style, resulting from confusion around when the club actually started - 1987, as it turns out but, hey, any excuse for a party. · Sub Club, Glasgow, Saturday 25

Claude Young
Three years after his last Irish appearance, the legendary Detroit DJ and producer emerges from semi-retirement in Japan for a night of top-hole techno with Electric City's Rian Ryan offering sterling support. · TBMC, Dublin, Friday 1
