Death on the Balcony are a DJ and Production duo residing in Leeds. Mark Caramelli and Paul Hargreaves both hail from quirky seaside town Blackpool and met through a mutual love of house and techno and also being heavily inspired by New wave, Disco and the general debauchery of the 80's. These guys love a party and whether playing or not they are bound to be knocking around soaking up some inspiration!
From a DOTB set you can expect anything between the best Deep Melodic House/Techno & Groovy Rolling Techno through to Cosmic Disco - if you've forgot your dancing shoes when you enter a roon DOTB are playing in you'll be shooting off home to get them on and getting involved!
