The Outernational

with DJ Hooch

From underground warehouse raves to the grand stages of London’s top venues, Hooch has been at the heart of the city's club scene for decades. As a founding member of the iconic Funkin’P crew, he’s spent over 25 years shaking dancefloors across the UK with unstoppable energy and crate-digging genius.

 

His legendary funk and hip hop night at Covent Garden’s Africa Centre (1991–2003) remains the longest-running club of its kind in the UK — a place where crowds surged, stars slipped in unannounced, and dancers never stopped moving. It was there that UK b-boys and b-girls found their rhythm, battling to beats they couldn’t hear anywhere else.

​

In 1996, Hooch founded the UK B-Boy Championships, a groundbreaking global competition that helped shape the future of breaking — laying the foundation for its debut in the 2024 Paris Olympics.

​

Visionary, relentless, and true to the roots — Hooch is still setting the tempo.
