Sorry about the quality of the beginning of the set - I didn't realise until halfway through the show that I had my ISO set to 1600. 
Hope they capture the energy tho!

here's a little writeup:
There are very few events that can ever reach and defy your expectations when you know it is a guaranteed mindblowing, face-melting, and transcendent experience; and Skream & Benga smashing it at Club Mighty in San Francisco this week completely exceeded all of them. The moment the show was announced back in April, we immediately made the decision to take the trip down to SF as this was an event not to miss, and counted down the days, weeks, and months, while listening to Skream's weekly Stella Sessions and Benga's recent radio shows on the BBC and KissFM.
Club Mighty was the perfect venue for this event and the system was NO slouch and completely up to the task of the night's bill. Huge speaker stacks in each corner of the small square dancefloor, as well as the huge stageside monitors left sternums rattling, teeth chattering, had some running for cover, and left no prisoners on the dancefloor.
The night started off right with Sam Supa's set, a personal highlight being the drop into Natasja - "Ildebrand I Byen" (200F Remix) currently out on Kraken recordings. From that moment on the evening just continued to gain steam. Soon, the man with the plan, An-Ten-Nae hit the stage
and threw down a set blending everything from dubstep, to glitch, and hip hop to set the mood. The moment that he dropped Scuba's tune aptly titled "Frisco" the entire crowd erupted, as hip hop vocals were layered over the tune, later giving way to that building and thrashing guitar riff before the second drop.
Skream & Benga hit the stage about Midnight and played a b2b 2.5 hour set that I still am trying to wrap my mind around. Highlights of the set: Benga & Walsh- Bassface, Benga & Coki- Night--->Rusko- Soundguy Is My Target, Skream- Love Don't Come Easily, Skream- 0800dub, Distance's new tune "Buss" complete with Daft Punk samples, Benga dropping some Run DMC, Skream- Lemon, as well as a bunch of unreleased tunes from the both of them.
After their set, Babylon System brought it all back home for the stamina crew til the early morning in the main room, while Audiovoid was dropping some downtempo glitchiness in the sideroom, as well as the DJs on the bus outside the club complete with DJ booth and speakers, spinning some reggae vibes as well as 'Calm Down', 'Cockney Thug', and other summer stables for the smoker's outside.
all around an amazing vacation.
