Tate Lates: Uniting South London’s Creative Pulse

THE GRIN / Tate Lates / May 2026

Tate Lates — Signals From South London

For Friday 29 May, The GRIN returns to Tate Modern with a programme celebrating the creative spirit and cultural ecosystems of South London — tracing the communities, sounds and social spaces that continue to shape the city.

Tate Lates has always felt most interesting when the experience extends beyond individual performances or rooms. People move through galleries, conversations, artworks and sound environments, building their own pathways through the evening.

Across music, film, performance and play, the evening becomes less about isolated moments and more about the connections between people and places: from clubs and radio stations to cinemas, community spaces and informal meeting points.

The GRIN Music Programme

Z Lovecraft

Z Lovecraft — Turbine Hall

18:00–20:00

Opening the evening, Z Lovecraft sets the tone with eclectic electronic selections drawing from breakbeat, techno and wider rhythmic influences. Within the scale of the Turbine Hall, the aim is to gradually activate the space — building movement through rhythm and atmosphere.

Serenda

Serenda — Turbine Hall

20:00–21:30

As the evening progresses, Serenda guides the room into deeper territory. House and techno textures move through more hypnotic and soulful spaces, creating an immersive journey through the second half of the night.

Anja Ngozi

Anja Ngozi — Corner Bar

18:00–21:30

Running alongside the energy of the Turbine Hall, Anja Ngozi shapes a different orbit within the Corner Bar. Drawing from jazz, dub, ambient textures and unexpected sonic turns, the space becomes one for drifting, listening and staying with sounds a little longer.

Across the Building

The celebration of South London continues throughout Tate Modern.

South London poet and musician James Massiah presents a special edition of Adult Entertainment in the South Tank — an ongoing series bringing together literary readings, live performance and curated musical selections. Exploring ideas around sexuality, morality and hedonism, the project reflects the cross-disciplinary experimentation that continues to emerge from the city.

At Starr Cinema, Them Ones presents South 16, a programme of 16mm films capturing the rhythmic and intimate spirit of South London’s communities, documenting everyday lives and cultural histories through moving image.

Over in the Terrace Bar, Home Radio’s Ludi Club transforms the space into an evening of games, laughter and community gathering. Bringing together Jamaican Ludo, Dominoes and open participation, it reflects the social rituals and informal spaces that sit at the centre of community life.

Together these moments create what makes Tate Lates feel distinct: not a sequence of isolated events, but a temporary city of interconnected experiences unfolding across the building.

Different rooms.
Different energies.
One shared signal.

Tate Lates Music – September 2025

Tate Lates Music Curated by The GRIN — 26 September 2025

On Friday 26 September 2025, Tate Modern once again opens its doors late into the evening for Tate Modern Lates, celebrating The Genesis Exhibition: Do Ho Suh: Walk the House. From 18:00 to 22:00, the Blavatnik and Natalie Bell Buildings will be alive with performance, talks, workshops, and music.

Across three spaces, The GRIN curates a programme bringing together artists and collectives pushing contemporary sound, culture and identity into new territory — including an Eastern Margins takeover with Sijya, Ichiro Tanimoto (Minna-no-kimochi) and Keyi Xu (Dirty K’s experimental pseudonym), a special video DJ set from TheGRIN.io’s founder Thristian, and a cosmic collaboration between Danalogue and Mari*.

—

Eastern Margins Takeover — Level 1 Bridge

18:00–21:30

Eastern Margins, a collective championing alternative Asian culture and diasporic voices, bring their energy and experimentation to Tate Modern. Their takeover features Sijya, whose music explores raw textures and unfiltered emotion (with her new EP Leather & Brass out this month on One Little Independent Records), alongside Ichiro Tanimoto of Minna-no-kimochi, known for eclectic leftfield selections rooted in experimental club culture, and Keyi Xu, performing under Dirty K’s experimental pseudonym with a boundary-pushing, uncompromising set. Together, they create a powerful statement on the diversity of narratives across East and South-East Asia and its diaspora.

Thristian (TheGRIN.io Founder) — Corner Bar, Natalie Bell Building, Level 1

18:00–21:30

TheGRIN.io’s own Thristian presents a special video DJ set, weaving together contemporary Asian arts, music and culture.

Danalogue & Mari* — Terrace Bar, Blavatnik Building, Level 1

18:00–21:30

Danalogue (The Comet Is Coming, Soccer96) teams up with Mari* (Gondwana Records) to transform the Terrace Bar into a deep, cosmic soundscape. Together, they’ll deliver a set that stretches between future jazz, electronics, and expansive improvisation.

Beyond the Music

Tate Lates also features an intimate performance by Joy Crookes, an artist talk with Do Ho Suh, and hands-on workshops including Collaging Home and Memory and *Tate Draw. Tate’s signature 10 Minute Talks also return, offering bite-sized insights into the collection from staff and volunteers.

Why It Matters

For TheGRIN.io, curating Tate Modern Lates is about more than soundtracking a night — it’s about building bridges between contemporary art spaces and underground music cultures. By spotlighting collectives like Eastern Margins and artists such as Sijya, Ichiro Tanimoto, Keyi Xu, Danalogue and Mari*, we continue our mission to amplify diverse stories and global perspectives.

This collaboration demonstrates how TheGRIN.io works across institutions and communities to create shared cultural experiences — where music, art and people meet.
