Hitting up the decks for our third birthday and farewell (for now) party, we’re excited to invite UKG heavyweight and bassline pioneer, DJ Q. With an unmatched technical ability for spinning a meld of house, garage, bassline, jungle and more, Kiss FM Resident Q joins us for a two hour set in the basement, having made waves as 1/3rd of widely successful group, TQD, and with his six year run on BBC Radio 1xtra. With support from Sonice, Maracuya, Manny P, AZUSA, Burgess, and a very Special Guest - expect no frills, strictly speed garage, 4X4, ‘n bassline, open to close.

But that’s not all! For the first time, we’ll be curating two floors of tunes - the crew will be taking over the bar from 9pm, so make sure to get down early!

Early Bird and General Release on sale now.

ANNOUNCEMENT (PLEASE READ) ⬇️

Hey all, the two of us have been quite quiet on here for the past few months, work commitments have meant we haven’t been able to give this platform the amount of energy we have in the past.

However: we do have some exciting news to share with you on Thursday! We’ve been planning our 3rd birthday party event for the past couple of months and are very eager to to share this with you. No frills, great value tickets and a large lineup!

On a personal note, this will be the last one we’ll be running for the foreseeable, as sad as it makes us to say this. A massive thank you to everyone who has supported us the label and attended our events these past few years, we couldn’t do what we do without you. Keep the 25th of March free.

Belfast born, rising Manchester-based talent .h0lle joins us for our 27th edition in our Mix Series. We're very excited to be showcasing them this weekend, taking us on a journey through 2-step rhythms, Acid, Trance & beyond. Link in bio ✍️

Having recently played an incredible set in the city for High Hoops at TWH, as well as regular sets at XLR, this mix gives us plenty of late night, wintery club flavours to bring in the colder season.

‘’As summer moves further from sight, I wanted to put together a mix of tunes that evoke those darker wintery nights (which are probably my favourite times in the club). It contains many different flavours of house music both new and old (with a healthy dose of trance) which I think exemplify this mood.

I love the malleability of club music that allows you to give a classic renewed freshness by putting it in a new context, and also being able to experiment with 3 deck mixing to create interesting new sounds. I really tried to push these aspects in the mix so I hope you all enjoy the final product.

Friday has rolled around quick again, and we’re back with another mix; with quick fire blends, scope across the whole musical spectrum, and putting the multi in multi-genre, it’s with Mix #26. 🔥☄️

Bristol based artist, Alexisitry, has been carving a name for herself all across the UK’s club and festival scene over the last couple years. 💎Riding on the airwaves with a recent bathroom set on .berlin, guest slots on , a recent showcase on the LT Podcast (), and her monthly Friday night residency with .fm, it’s clear she’s only going from strength to strength. 💪 On the ground, Alexistry has been curating her own nights, , showcasing Bristol’s diverse underground talent, as well as taking on a multitude of performances - including , supporting artists such as , , .boring, , , , and , and playing at prolific venues such as , , , , and more, the only way is up for this blossoming artist. 🌸

We weren’t joking when we say the scope on this mix is huuuuuge - from UK Funky to UKG, to wobbly drum grooves and driving techno rhythms as a closer; dig deep for forthcoming bits from, , , -poly, and 877 Records. Get stuck in, link in bio. ⬆️

The Cologne-based cofounder of cu***ng lays down a chill, buoyant set of house, techno and electro.

A whole season has passed since our last mix, and we’d love to say it’s looking like spring (but of course, it’s raining in Manchester), so launching back in with MIX025, we’re bringing nothing but good vibes from . 🍃

Cali-born, Cologne-based Savsannah aspires to bring people together through music, community building, and writing. Over the past six years, she's grown as an artist and has found herself in different pockets of the city, such as hosting her bi-monthly .de radio show ‘This Must Be The Place’, co-founding a new contemporary pop-focused label, .records, and also co-founding a queer-feminist collective, ***ngcollective. In the past two years, she’s started DJing at various venues and parties across Cologne, focusing her sets on creating a welcoming space, where listeners can escape to another world and feel an array of emotions. ✨💗

Having always had a brilliant way with words, Sav was kind enough to guide us through this hour of tunes:
‘I call it “Ocean Nostalgia” – a mix that shimmers in the air when you turn the volume up for more. It’s memories of the salty breeze filling my nostrils with empathy and solace. It’s the days from my San Francisco apartment on Moraga Street, walking out the door with my Bluetooth speaker playing a pop bop as I skip down to Ocean Beach’s dunes. The mix begins with low tides, shallow waters, and calm ripples. Island vibes on a coastline. As it progresses, beach balls bounce on top of the house beats. Snow cones under a palm tree. Then as we climax, the high tide rolls in with the chaotic sunset colors. Wild waves and shores of summer.’ 🌊🌅🏝

We’ll be back on the reg with the mix series - link in bio. ⬆️
