MixTape - An Over 30s Day Rave

A daytime dance event at The Roxy in Fitzrovia, London, built around electronic, house, Britpop and pop anthems from the nineties and noughties, presented as a re-education in that music rather than simple nostalgia.

MixTape is an electronic event that draws on dance anthems from the nineties and noughties, with styles including dance, hip hop, Europop, house, Madchester, R&B and Britpop. The material names a wide range of artists associated with that period, among them Massive Attack, The Prodigy, Daft Punk, LCD Soundsystem, Gorillaz, Blur, Pulp, Faithless, Basement Jaxx, Garbage, Ace of Base and Eminem, alongside many others.

The organisers present the night as a re-education in the music of those years rather than only a look back, and the event is restricted to an older audience. The Roxy, on Rathbone Place in Fitzrovia, mainly hosts concerts, with a focus on electronic music and R&B.
