The Future has arrived, and it’s all Dancefloors, Tails and Strict Party Discipline

Rumpus is going where no Party has gone before: into a post-apocalyptic, dystopian Future, and it’s dragging you along for the ride. You have a choice: adhere to the strict rules of the Party and help the People’s Party of Rumpus to achieve yet more Glory, or join the underground resistance and break the Party’s iron-fisted grip on Beats, Beasts and Dancefloors. Conform or Rise up! You can read a brief history of The Future.

Joining you on the Dance-based battlefields of the future are mighty, thunderous bands such as Badger Badger and Jarade Por Fuera. They’re bringing musical movements to the masses with Cut-A-Shine’s anarchic Punk Ceilidh. The Finest DJ’s are polishing the records in preparation of the coming showdown, and they’ve got more of the usual Rumpus shenaniganism from The Rubbish Sideshow Circus and the Travelling Tavern’s Proper Music For Proper Dancing! Also, their dear friends from Ubertown are coming along for the ride, bringing us Mad Marx – a mashed up musical vision of days to come.
