📣 Coming up in two weeks… 💃🕺

🎧 Friday 6th November - Directions In Dance Ft. Sölacè

Join us for a night of deep house, progressive grooves and electronic goodness as Sölacè takes to the decks! 🔊

With influences ranging from dance music legends Leftfield, Way Out West, BT and Orbital to DJs such as Sasha, Sander Kleinenberg and Satoshi Tomiie, expect a mix of deep, melodic and atmospheric sounds that’ll take you on a journey throughout the night. 🌌

Drawing on a more contemporary sound inspired by artists such as Dusky, Nightly Closures, Mo’ Cream and Zetbee, expect rolling basslines, hypnotic rhythms and plenty of groove to get you moving. 🪩

🎶 Saturday 7th November - Flex #2 with DJ Maelo

One half of the Better Days Presents duo, taking over the booth for this one. Maelo has shared the stage with heavy hitters like Grant Nelson and DJ Spen, as well as local icons Jim Shaft Ryan and Kiddo, not forgetting his long-standing residency at Colmore Club and former Word of Mouth alumni.

Deep? We got it! Funky? Absolutely we are! Classic? Well we’re of a certain age! Soulful? Chicago? Chunky? Afro? Disco? Acid? You can bet your dancing shoes on it! 🪩🔥👟

26/10/2026
