Stay tuned for the full line up but for now we're very excited to announce the four room hosts; Soul Jazz Records, Banana Hill, So Flute and ourselves!
Stevie Wonderland will be holding things down in the main room and will be joined by some of the finest Afro-centric disco selectors on the scene. The three guests hail from London, Glasgow and Amsterdam and have collectively released music on Ninja Tune, Huntley + Palmers and Lumberjacks in Hell and together really push the boundaries for what modern day club music can be.
Room 2 is a haven for those who like their selections deep and their cuts rare. Hosted by heavyweight promoters and DJs So Flute, they’ll be joined by DJs representing Eglo Records and Brilliant Corners.
Downstairs, Rye Wax Basement sees London record shop and world music aficionados Sounds of the Universe takeover with a special 6 hour Soul Jazz Records Sound System. The label started in 1992 to draw "cross cultural connections between various music genres" which perfectly sums up the diverse and eclectic musical styles showcased across carnival and celebrated at this afterparty.
Finally, there is tropical party-starters Banana Hill. Their parties across Manchester, Sheffield and London always pop off and we can’t wait for them bring their energy to the Third Floor for a night of sounds from the global underground. They’ll be joined by one of South Africa’s most prolific diggers who has recently put together a compilation with Antal on Rush Hour.
Full line-up and timings to be announced.
