With 25 nights of a veritable musical feast in its back pocket, Manchester’s The Warehouse Project is set for another sell out year.With nights from October through to New Year, no matter what night piques your interest you will be in for a long night dancing along to the thumping bassline of one heroic dance act or another.
Musical legends Chic (WHUT) sit alongside Rob Da Bank, Hot Chip and Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs in a stellar line up bringing the best of summer’s festival circuit to a winter-ridden Manchester (presented by Bestival on November 1st). Annie Mac provides some heroic sets on November 8th in the form of Major Lazer, Cyril Hahn, Diplo, Duke Dumont…the list goes on.
On the 12th of October Rudimental bring along Bondax, Jazzy Jeff (WHUT), Andy C and Snakehips to smooth out proceedings with a mixture of R&B, hip-hop and reggae (with thanks to Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry). ‘MODESELEKTION’ is on the 11th of October with a line up headed up by electro masters Moderat and LFO. Disclosure take the lead on November 22nd with Pusha T, Breach and Dusky to name but a few for a musical collaboration mixing the best of their album influences live.
Hospitality do what they do best with Netsky, High Contrast and Danny Byrd being some of the big names on the 29th of November and the line ups that follow show that WHP most certainly start as they mean to go on with a relentless slew of massive acts including, but not limited to, The Chemical Brothers, Eats Everything, Heidi, Jamie xx, Nero, Redlight, Jaguar Skills, Julio Bashmore and literally hundreds more.
It’s simply a case of jumping onto their site and choosing a night that takes your musical fancy from a menu of the best dance acts of the minute. They really have outdone themselves, with a different night catering to a different epoch of the ever growing and continually vast arena of dance music. The musical treats continue through up until New Year and the Closing Party, despite being line-up-less at the moment, is likely to be the cherry on top of a very good looking couple of months.
As it stands, nights presented by Rudimental, Bestival, Four Tet and Caribou, and Disclosure have all sold out but expect the availability of tickets for the remaining nights to start dropping like flies. Basically, get tickets before you regret it for the rest of the miserable winter!
