About Me

Cargo was founded with an aspiration to offer underground house and techno to electronic music fans with a taste for something different. In our 2-year journey so far, Cargo has gone from a mid week bar night to hosting regular events at some of Sheffield’s biggest and best venues.We operate an attitude free approach to our night; we have a love for electronic music and a love for anti-commercialism in the dance music scene. Our residents play from the heart, a smooth blend of house and techno straight from the underground, which is currently being labelled as minimal. The name Cargo has become synonymous with minimal house and techno, and we can proudly state that we were the first in the area to play that particular sound.In our 2 years, Cargo has ran events at DQ, (both weekly and one off bank holiday parties), Corporation, The Plug, The Old Crown, Under the Boardwalk, Uniq and so on. We have pushed our name forward in joint ventures with Dirty Cheese, Circus, Clunge Magazine, TW_TS, Technique, Grounded, Bring It On………….to name just a few.
