OUR COMPANY CULTURE
WHO WE ARE
Boiler Room started with a webcam taped to a wall, opening a keyhole into London’s underground. Since 2010, we’ve built a unique archive spanning over 8,000 performances by more than 5,000 artists across 200 cities. Connecting local scenes to the wider world.
Today, we remain true to that history. Everything we do is rooted in the energy of club culture and its ability to cultivate community. We tell the stories from the fringes, tapping overlooked scenes from all corners of the globe.
It’s our mission to nurture the next generation of innovators. We support artists, both emerging and established, by providing them the space to showcase their sound and message. We work closely with a diverse and ever-expanding network of collaborators on our events, broadcasts, grant scheme, mix series, documentaries and more.
Our global events are dedicated to fostering a culture of solidarity: open dance floors where music, ideas and people meet. We are dedicated to building a digital archive of cutting-edge music content that is accessible to everyone and anyone, regardless of location.
