As reported over the weekend, the young man fell ill after apparently taking an unnamed Class A drug and subsequently died, in spite of efforts by hospital staff to save his life.
It's understood that Dylan was on one of his first nights out, having only recently turned 18.
One tribute left on social media read: "It’s truly heartbreaking to see one of my closest friends at school has been taken away at such a young age."
Four other clubbers had needed medical attention after taking the same "bad batch" of drugs, believed to have been distributed at The Rainbow nightclub, in Digbeth.
The venue has now posted on its Facebook page, offering its sympathies to Dylan's family and urging anyone with information to contact police.
"Everyone at The Rainbow venue is deeply saddened by this tragic news," said the statement.
"Our sincerest thoughts and condolences are with the family and friends at this time. We are assisting the West Midlands Police with their ongoing investigation."
Anyone who can help detectives with their inquiries should call 101 or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
