Sir John Lavery, The Chess Players 1929. Tate.

Join us for an evening of music and board games curated by DJ and writer Haseeb Iqbal

Beats and Boards is one of London’s most unique boardgame nights, blending music and board games in a way that changes the way we go out. Curated by DJ and broadcaster Haseeb Iqbal, this event offers a chance to actively listen while playing games.

Now in its second year, this residency has become a staple for those looking for more than just a typical night out. It’s about more than the play; it’s about how the music and games come together to create a space where you can connect, unwind, and engage in a new kind of social night.

Haseeb Iqbal is a DJ, writer and broadcaster from north London. His work explores music, history and stories from around the globe. His radio documentaries on Worldwide FM and his own independent radio platform, haseebiqbal.world, have amassed a cult following for their in-depth research and emotive analysis, whilst his DJ sets have been celebrated for their eclectic brilliance. His monthly club residency Studio Crumb is currently one of the staples of the London club scene, drawing in a diverse and devoted audience, whilst the club night itself has recently been listed by Time Out Magazine as one of the best in the capital.

His first book, Noting Voices: Contemplating London's Culture, was published on Rough Trade Books and spotlighted as one of the most crucial pieces of cultural commentary on space and community in the last decade. He has written for The Guardian, Mixmag, DJ Mag and more. His words, music and thoughts have been profiled by various platforms such as Crack Magazine, The Fader and BBC Radio London and he has recently featured in the campaigns of Vogue, Fred Perry and Clark's.

A multi-faceted performer with an enthusiastic edge, Haseeb's new residency at the Tate Modern sees a very exciting new dimension added to his craft.
