Description
Oh My God has been going from strength to strength recently with hugely successful events like the Micky Finn, Danny Byrd and Cyantific night packing out and a fast growing reputation as one of the best atmospheres of any night in Manchester.
This month sees one of the tastiest and definitely the darkest Oh My God line up so far.
Ed Rush and Optical are legends in the drum n bass scene. With amazing tracks like Watermelon, Sick Note and my favourite: The Message (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7kw3tFIIRM) this duo have ruined more dancefloors than fat women in stilettos. With their new album dropping this summer, it is with great pleasure that we invite them up to Manchester for an exclusive back to back set.
If you don't know about Spor, get to know. Spor is one of the most consistently brilliant producers of the last 3 years. He is getting huge recognition with his new tune Aztec getting rinsed on Radio One. He is more known for his darker, techier music though like 1up (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ix8gYj3Wjk) or Valentine (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXpOrreZlhA). Make sure you don't miss out on Spor's Manchester debut.
Lynx is best known for his track Disco Dodo (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQMLXweX85I) which sold incredibly well and made him a household name in dnb. Lynx has been tearing up dancefloors around the world with his minimal yet soulful sound with his MC, Kemo. Lynx and Kemo's massively anticipated new album The Raw Truth hits the shops just days before this event. Big tings!
Randomer is one of the best known artists on Med School (Hospital's offshoot label) with a string of releases including the enormous Blind (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bm--ZjBB_AQ) and with his new tune Synth Geek forthcoming on the world reknowned Hospital Records, we welcome him to Oh My God to make his Manchester debut.
With both Celtic and Eastern influences in his music, Celt Islam is one of the most different dubstep artists on the scene. His music is powerful, hypnotic and dancefloor friendly. Check out his music at: http://www.myspace.com/celtislam
Sappo is one Manchester's best loved DJ's and with good reason. Advisory records head honcho and big tune selector, we welcome back Sappo to perform not one but two sets back to back with Oh My God Resident, James G.
Dawn Raid constists of Kingsize, Sabre (Lee Ape) and ADT. Getting strong 1Xtra support, these Manchester based junglists have been churning out the top tunes for a while now. Can I get an Amen?
Add to this, some of the most talented DJ's and MC's in the North-West and you've got yourself a HUGE night.
With earlybird tickets available for just £6 advance and drinks prices at £1.50 for a spirit+mixer or a can of beer all night, this won't break the bank either.
