Manchester

Inspired by the recent passing of the Maya Long Count calendar, which some prophesised as the end of the world and others saw as a new beginning—the collective of Seth Troxler, Lee Curtiss, Shaun Reeves, and Ryan Crosson will play live and DJ at a series of 13 parties at various locations across the globe and this weekend they hit Manchester’s Warehouse Project. “Visionquest Thirteen is a chance for the boys and I to go back to what we do best: playing and hanging out together the way we used to and coming up with new ideas,” Curtiss said. “The twist on doing these 13 special events is that we will be pushing the level of production and music up further than we had originally imagined.”

Leeds

With Leeds based DJ and producer Laura Jones there on the bill you know that this has being a good night written all over it. Laura’s love affair with house music came from a trip to Ibiza back in 2005, which provided the inspiration she needed for the beginning of her music career. All her hard work paid off when her big break finally came in 2011 after she dropped ‘Love in Me’ on us via Leftroom Records. Alongside her will be the talents of Bloody Mary, Buckley and James Holroyd which all indicates a brilliant night is on the cards.
