Independent record label BBE celebrates its tenth anniversary with a hip hop block party at Canvas, and there's a breaks bonanza in Brixton. Rahul Verma rounds up the weekend's top club nights...

BBE Tenth Anniversary
Sat, Canvas, York Way N1, 10pm to 5am, £15. Tel: 0870 060 0100. www.bbemusic.com Tube: King's Cross
Running an independent record label isn't easy, so to reach ten years is cause for a celebration - exactly what BBE's Tenth Anniversary is all about. The aptly named BBE (Barely Breaking Even), has been putting out bespoke, left-of-centre hip hop, soul and house, from such names as J Dilla (RIP), Pete Rock, Kenny Dope Gonzalez, Laurent Garnier and many more. On Saturday BBE take over Canvas, with block party hip hop from the irresistible Jazzy Jeff and Mr Thing (Scratch Perverts), cool disco and house courtesy of sophisticate Dmitri From Paris, and two of the most influential British DJs of the last two decades, Norman Jay and Gilles Peterson, delivering sumptuous soul. A mouth-watering and ass-shaking line-up if ever there was one.

Finger Lickin'
Sat, Mass, St Matthew's Church, Brixton Hill SW2, 10pm to 6am, £12.50. Tickets available from www.fingerlickin.co.uk Tube: Brixton
There's a breaks bonanza in Brixton this weekend, thanks to Finger Lickin' records. The label, operating out of Camden's Bar Vinyl, is one of breaks' most respected and is home to the scene's leading lights, the Plump DJs. This is a very rare chance to hear the Plumps' bruising acid basslines outside their Fabric residency and the pair will be joined by duo Soul Of Man (who founded Finger Lickin' eight years ago), Krafty Kutz' former partner in crime A Skillz, with his funk and hip hop-driven take on breaks, and Drummatic Twins with a dex'n'fx set which will see them manipulating darker, electro-edged breaks.

333
Sat, 333 Old Street EC1, 10pm to 5am, £5 before 11pm, £10 after. Tel: 020 7739 5949. Tube: Old Street
The convergence of dance music and guitars continues apace thanks to this year's indie-rave trend led by fresh-faced bands such as the Klaxons, Automatic and Sunshine Underground. 333 host a three-floor indie-rave extravaganza featuring Test Icicles, DJing and reincarnated as Acid Slutz, and flamboyant electro-indie duo Dollz At Play (residents at The End's Superfreq night and Ibiza's DC10), with new romantic, electro, indie, punk rock, acid house and Detroit techno, and current Shoreditch favourites the Digisole crew with eclectic electronic dance.

Tilted Disco
Sat, The Sub Club, 2 Goulston Street E1, 10pm to 6am, £10 adv. £12 door. Tel: 0870 060 0100. www.tilteddisco.com Tube: Aldgate East
Year-old alternative electronic night Tilted Disco has upped sticks and marks its inaugural night at the Sub Club with an attractive line-up. Incendiary, improv electronic band The Bays, who don't rehearse or record because they're all about the 'performance', will be there as will acidhouse pioneer Colin Dale (who used to DJ funk and soul alongside Westwood in the late 1980s before joining the acid house circuit) playing techno and tech-house and 21st-century electronic dance.
