Robot Soap
29th Feb
Cord, Off Tibb St, NQ, Manchester
9pm til Late
FREE ENTRY – Suggested minimum donation £3
After Last month’s sell out Robot Soap at Cord we’re gearing up for another huge rave in a basement. This month we’ve got some even more tasty treats in order, and special guests we’ll be announcing nearer the time – So keep your eyes peeled for those announcements!
This will be the first Robot Soap broadcast live all over the world in Second Life, in Association with Urbis (www.urbis.org.uk) – So even if you can’t make it to the club you can still ‘be there’. Have a rave in your bedroom with the music supplied from the Robot Soap Sound System.
We’re also asking for a donation this month to help out Manchester Metropolitan Universities Third Year Interactive Arts Course. Our links to this course go right back to the very first Robot Soap, where we exhibited work by various students from the course including the first exhibition from Melanie Warner whose Bog Standard Gallery is now travelling up and down the country in various exhibitions. At this Robot Soap we will be displaying a selection of video and animation work from Interactive Arts Students. We’re only asking for £3 – the price of a pint, as a recommended minimum donation.
Come down, get involved and we’ll see you on the Dancefloor!
ROBOT SOAP is our club night. It’s all in the name of fun, we don’t make any money from Robot Soap but we don’t care. All we want is for people to dance like idiots with us all night.
After over a year’s worth of parties Robot Soap is back and better than ever before, with a new vision, a new corporate identity, & a new resident DJ but the best news of all is that we are back to doing free parties again so everyone can get involved again and have a right royal rave up!
We’ve been party to some of Manchester’s most unique venues, always striving to be one step ahead of the crowd, we’ve had Radioclit tearing it up in the majestic glass walled Urbis Centre, we’ve had the residents sweating it out in a converted underground abattoir, we’ve got idea’s pencilled in for the new year, but needless to say they will be special.
Once again the SNES will follow us, with over 1000 games to be played on our projector but more importantly, we’ll be stamping our very own brand of robotic-dance-party on any venue we play at & we won’t be happy until there’s some real dance floor destruction! Expect Robot Soap’s own sound of Electro, Techno, Rave, Indie, Nu-Disco, Punk Funk, Acid house and anything in-between, all along remembering that our policy is we have no music policy, if it sounds good, it gets played.
Joining previous residents, Seconds From Nothing, Expo’84 and Paulo T, is our good friend; Correct Effect. Correct Effect has been a long time supporter of Robot Soap but it was only recently we got to hear him on the decks for the first time and to say we were impressed would be a massive understatement. His productions and re-edits are also some of the best we’ve ever heard. On the spot we offered him the residency and there’s been no looking back since.
The individuals behind robot soap have been running club nights and venues for years & playing at various nights up and down the country, to us it’s about music, making people dance, creating an atmosphere and a brand identity, not about big DJ’s in soulless clubs. We’re here to promote new talent, nurture up and coming DJ’s and push forward those already established.
This is Robot Soap, and you’re going to hear a hell of a lot more of us in the New Year. That was 2007, here to 2008, were not playing games!.
