We’re back in the house after our adventures at Glastonbury and The Garden Festival and in the zone, bringing da party to Mancunia once more. Fresh (fresh)…exciting, yes it’s a residents party to lever you into the groove before we unleash our arsenal of stellar guests over the coming months.
That said, our resident, Neil Scott, is no ordinary DJ. Fast becoming an in demand Disco & House selectors, with bookings a plenty and releases imminent, he’s making a grande name for himself, despite already being a Manchestershire institution, having held residencies around the city for the likes of Electriks and played for just about everyone in the locale. His sets are compelling and his records excelling. You can also find him sometimes behind the counter at Piccadilly Records.
Pulling up to the bumper with Neil is Electriks stalwart David Walker. Long time Piccadilly Records staffer, Harter St Lounge louche and Nish party monster, Dave rings the bell on average disco DJs and leaves them sprawling in his wake. Rave and Dave sleep arm in arm and dance cheek to cheek.
Tonight we’ll also be welcoming some surprise guests from our recent summer travels.

Whilst we’re catching some rays and basting ourselves in liqour over in Crotia, we’re passing the baton over to some experienced hands in the shape of That Amazing Thing !
It’s the annual T.A.T. micro-festival, juxtaposing a House, Techno and Disco rave with a sleepy village hall and a camping trip that would have had Baden Powell reaching for the lasers , for which the occassional pop-up party crew are best known. But since 2000, DJ’s Francis Wooff and Mark Haran have tip toed the line line between irregular and erratic with their revered and highly anticipated parties on barges, in basements & lofts and good old fashioned discotheques that leave the regulars wanting more but guessing when it will be. Word of mouth and high on atmosphere, it’s the house party away from home. Musically expect techno to hip hop, afrobeat to soul music, future sounds to classics.
So, That Amazing Thing! are taking over for the night and it’s their 10th Anniversary of keeping tings strictly underground, no mean feat in today’s climate of disposable club nights and overt bandwagon jumping. Come get your freak on and toast a clubbing milestone with some of Manchester’s finest party people y’all.

Holy Fwok ! We’re seven years old this month. SEVEN! Well I never. Seven years of getting fully involved and meaning it. Seven years of basements and barges, glitterballs and gurners, dancefloors and dankfloors. Still ready, still on it. Here’s to seven more fools. Don’t let up.
And the man we’ve enlisted to bring the party is Stevie Kotey. Like a Captain of modern Disco, Stevie is a leader of the scene in the truest sense. He brought the colossal talents of people Prins Thomas & Lindstrom, Windsurf, Fabrizio Mammarella, Lexx, Mudd, Blackbelt Andersen, Todd Terje, Brennan Green and DJ Kent to many people’s consciousness for the first time via his Big Bear, Bear Funk and Full Pupp labels. Compiler of the belting Disco Italia collection and a DJ Kicks mix, Stevie is an almost omnipresent remixer and producer as well as pushing the scene forward as a label owner. Oh yes, he’s also in Chicken Lips too by the way, yup.
It’s an immense privilege to welcome Stevie to Diablos for his debut, his DJ skills and musical influence we hold in the highest regard, as will you once he’s mauled the dancefloor Big Bear style.
Hold tight, it’s party time.

Disco Deviance is the ten ton bomb of an edits label from Dicky Trisco that’s providing a platform for new assaults on discoid past by production geniuses such as Greg Wilson, Reverso 68, Andrew Allsgood, Ashley Beedle and the ace Social Disco Club. Alongside Mindless Boogie, here we have a label opening up the doors of disco and the eclectic to an audience that may never have discovered such dancefloor treasures any other way, whilst presenting the track in an alien form to it’s original incarnation.
Dicky Trisco will be delivering a sermon in the ethos of his label, if it’s good and you can dance to it ; play it and meld it together. Balearic in approach, a sound that cannot and should not be defined. It’s music to dance to and it’s from all over the shop. Nothing snazzier than that. Get me yo?. Disco, Electro-Funk, House, Boogie…it don’t matter, just get down and dance the night away, hey.
Returning to the bill once again, Cosmic Boogie is providing support on vibes, sounds and bar takings. He’s put his own edits out on Disco Deviance and runs his own label that has featured output from Wilson & Beedle too as well as the legendary Ian Dewhirst. Next up is the debut release from hotly tipped rookie, our very own Neil Diablo. This will be a weighty drop, believe you me.
