The
flexible and open-minded approach to the music policy in the club has been
the key to its’ success – long standing residents Michael McKeown
& Watsi have arguably some of the most diverse music tastes on the circuit. Twisted electro, acid house and breaks dominate their sets for the club, but the pair also make regular DJ appearances individually, covering everything from soul, funk, disco, dub reggae, dancehall, techno and hip hop. This has led to residencies and appearances in Belfast club nights, such as Knee Deep, Hemp and Bedlam in addition to slots in London, Glasgow, Dublin, Derry, Portrush, and Manchester and even as far afield as Canada, Prague and San Francisco. |
