About Me

Ok were still waiting to hear from the Parish Council,it's been 2 years I think the reply is still in the post.
So we're back in the area at the Grotton Hotel,we've sampled the delights of DJing in Manchester and are ready to have it back where we belong.Especially The Grotton I grew up in there,although don't mention the cement/toilet incident and we'll be ok.
We say Bye to the Brass Bands, Move over Morris Men, Hello PoP uP
Top tunes from the PoP uP DJs and guest DJs
Cool Projected Images showcasing National and Local Artists; Music, Film and Design Icons and any other shit we think looks good.
You'll hear Trashed out Screaming Garage, Wired Post Punk, Dance Floor Shaking Northern Soul Classic, a Sprinkling of Smoooth Soul, Indie Gems, a Sneaky Hard Hitting Dance Track and a taster of Obscure Treats that you might not have heard of before
Sexual delight for your ears and eyes, hunnies
We are professional photographers,if your in a band and need some photos doing let us know.If you have attitude and are any good that is.
If your an artist and want to be part of the visuals let us know.
Even if you fancy doing a DJ spot we'll think about that.
