Sleepless - Man With No Name - August 8th
At Sleepless we’ve watched the Trance bandwagon come and go, then come back again. We’ve seen parties embrace the sound like it was their own, drop it in favour of the relentless Hard House scene and now they are back offering Trance like it never went away.
For the last 5 years we’ve put on parties that maintain the true sound of intelligent Trance music. From the more progressive sounds of Praha and Mark Shimmon, the driving tunes from Nigel Dawson, the euphoric and uplifting style of JFK and Space Brothers Steve to the psychedelic edge that Man With No Name and Mark Allen offered. A night of Sleepless trance means a journey of music, a taste of the past and an insight into the future of this wonderful and versatile genre.
Since we started, our parties have maintained a true underground feel. A powerfully energetic party with no attitude or inhibitions thanks to a regular crowd of lovely people. Our decision to hold occasional events rather than the monthly parties has proved to be the right move, we can enjoy occasional madness without it becoming formulaic or boring.
Our next party is exciting for us as we have invited back the incredible Man With No Name to give us a taste of his new album and to throw us back in time with the tunes that shaped the trance scene in it’s early days. Who can forget Flooressence or Teleport? To make things extra special, this party will also be a resident’s event, the first time that Tim, Ian and Andy have played together for what seems like a long time. We are also pleased to have Steve Hitch, promoter and DJ at Spangulation and one of my favourite DJs.
SEOne is one of London’s most clubber friendly venues, with great door staff, a fully stocked bar at decent prices, huge air ducts and clean toilets. We’ll be making sure the sound system is perfect and that there are plenty of lights, lasers and decor to keep your eyes amused as you melt into the music with reckless abandon. Visual Reality are putting in an amazing lightshow, including Diode Pumped Solid State 2.5w laser. Deep Blue is a section of the club that consists of three brick arches. A solid area for bouncing with adjoining bar and seating for those times when the feet decide they need a break.
Email [email protected] to get yourself and friends added to the £10 list, else it'll be a dozen of the queens pounds.
