Manchester/Liverpool/Chester/North Wales

Hi,

Im looking to start a night in the Northwest. Im looking for people who may also be interested in this.

Ideally someone who has any contacts with venues? Im sure I can get a venue in Wrexham, but its not the area I am really looking at.

What I can offer is lots of enthusiasm regarding organising a night. What I would like to find is some likeminded people in the same area who would like to run a regular (maybe once a month) night in one of the stated areas. I like a variety of music and often play deep house and techno. However I also love the new UK Bass scene and feel that this genre would be a better choice in the saturated North West market.

Anyone interested in this? I would also look into the possibility of a matching online radio station.

Early days but let me know.

84 views - no one up for this?

I was one of the 84 but not from the NW. In fact, because you’re north of the Watford Gap, I’m not sure you exist at all

This is relevant to my interests. My best mate is friends with someone who owned a venue in Liverpool, unfortunately though it got shut down

I might be interested but I’ve not got much to bring to the party except I’ve got an s4 laptop 1210’s and am good with imagery and design so could help with promotion. Website is www.life-photo.co.uk for my business. I live in between Liverpool an Manchester.

I’m up for this, would love to help set up a night! As far as venues go I have limited contacts myself…

Maybe we can round a some e-mails of managers at local clubs?

Anyone think they can help with a venue? Could do a NW Midi Fight Club

I’d be up for a night judging by the other thread we were on, I’m in East Mids so can’t help with venue but would be up for putting my name down for playing?

Was this The Masque? Such a good venue. :disappointed:

Bfly, check out The Magnet in Liverpool and speak to Andrew Hill. It’s just reopened and is very open to decent music and they’ve started getting some big acts on again, but they could be interested in something like this for sure. I reckon theres a market for a deep house night in Liv, and with a bit of tech thrown in it could go down very well. There’s an abundance of ‘bassy’ type nights though (including at Magnet itself) so probably best to stay away from that IMO

Nah it was Bad Format, down near the Birkenhead tunnel

Cheers for the Heads up KS2 - The magnet looks a good, I will try and contact them. Do you know the guy?

Speaking of the masque, apparently it’s opening one last time on the 25th for the last ever circus :confused:

Move D is doing it for me right now - love his Fact mix and have been following his productions for years:

There’s a nice little venue in Chester called Politik with a 6am licence (Private members = late licence however, they don’t seem to be that fussy).

I am fom southport so go Liverpool/Manchester alot me and a friend Are all so looking to put on a night will be in touch with you

Magnet

I dj at magnet on fridays at the dubstep student night , BeatFeast , its a top little venue , but i think its pretty much fully booked all the time we’re on every friday and theres always something on at least wed thurs friday sat and i think monday or tuesday there might be one night that has a free slot a few times a month , i deal with the promoter more than the venue but i can look into an email addy for you lot if you want, and of corse id like to get involved in anything bassy

looks like theres a few of us willing to do something!

How big an event is everybody thinking of? Just something to knock about and play some tunes for a laugh at or a small night with little expense or a fully promoted event?

I was just thinking something small at the start

YESYESYESYES

I’m based in Bangor but can probably travel as far as Chester. There are a few good venues in and around Bangor that we could use.

I was actually at a venue last night and was discussing starting a night there, I was told I could have the venue for free as long as I pay for security!!
