As Sankeys prepares to open this weekend, the iconic Manchester club has just released its full month of shows for October. Sankeys remains one of the most celebrated clubs in the world, a true bastion of underground dance music’s culture, with a weekly roster of outstanding parties from the very best DJs coming from all over the world to play in the famed basement of Manchester.
As well as the iconic Tribal Sessions returning each and every Friday, with Darius Syrossian as its resident and Jozef K in support, Tribal also reaches its momentous 14th birthday across the first weekend of October with a double whammy of shows on the 3rd and 4th, with guests including DJ Sneak, Apollonia, Dan Ghenacia, Greg Vickers and Just Be (Bushwacka) play back to back, with Guti and many more helping the enduring session, fresh from its triumphant season in Ibiza, celebrate in fine style.
The following weekends make October a brilliantly evocative reminder of why Sankeys has reached its 20th anniversary this year in such style, showcasing some of the best underground talent around. Friday 10th sees Miguel Campbell linking up with Darius Syrossian and Maxxi Soundsystem, with Sankeys’ regulars Drop The Mustard on Sat 11th bringing super cool German duo Booka Shade (DJ set), Finnebassen who is fresh from his Essential Mix in August with, Bodhi, Carl Bee and more to the club.
Friday 17th at Tribal Sessions sees the mercurial Levon Vincent joining up with Darius; Levon’s Fabric CD is testament to how much craft he injects into his sets. And on the following night Covert makes a welcome return to the club, with Low Steppa, Just Jorge, and Audio Rehab and a special guests TBA. Tribal on Friday 24th sees techno titan Dubfire headlining with Darius Syrossian, Hector Couto, Adam Chappell, and Sat 25th features two of the most iconic DJs and producers around, with the legendary 2manydjs (DJ set) and the seminal Bugged Out resident spinner Justin Robertson joins them.
Then the final weekend of October is a Halloween special; legendary DJ and producer Paul Johnson brings the chi-town house down Parris Mitchell, Darius Syrossian, Jozef K, Angus Jefford and a special guest to be confirmed shortly.
