CTW Members Jonathan2Klub Posted December 28, 2003 CTW Members Share Posted December 28, 2003 Andy Farley used to run a night in London with BK called Release some years ago now where he could play music he likes (not necessarily what promoters want him to play; not necessarily standard hard house) along with mates. More of a build -up playing tech house and techno. He's started up a similar kind of night, again called Release, with Sarah G. Si Griffiths and various guests (first night had Ian M), in Birmingham at The Nightingale , upstairs floor. Some peeps may know of the 'gale as the place Isomniacz had their after parties when they had events in Brum, others may know it from the Tony deVit memorial Tidy organised there earlier this year. The Nightingale is on the corner of Kent and Lower Essex Streets and the entrance for the top floor is on Lower Essex Street, opposite DV8. It's on Sundays from 6pm to midnight , (at present - it may run later; they're still experimenting with what works and finding out more about what people want), and the entry price is just £5. They are also selling a double album mix CD for a fiver at the club - one CD mixed by Andy Farley, the other mixed by Sarah G. The next one, on Sunday 28th. December , at The Nightingale, will feature Trade and Tin Tin's Anthems . If you've ever wanted to get an inkling of what Trade and the sound that gave birth to Hard house was like, or what one of Birmingham's legendary but now long gone clubs, (Tin Tin's), was about then come to this. I think they'll be closed for a couple of weeks after New Years and then starting up again late in January, so you'd have to wait a few weeks to sample it if you're wondering what it's about. Info on both Trade and Tin Tin's is on the 2Klub website at: Trade: http://www.2klub.com/trade.html Tin Tin's: http://www.2klub.com/tin_tins.htm as is info about Release: Release: http://www.2klub.com/release.htm I know that they're looking for people to help promote it, and though we're talking about one of the country's top DJs this is a very personal and low-key event for both Farley and Sarah G. organised purely around the music and for people who enjoy quality dance music played by masters of their craft. If anyone is interested in helping promote it please feel free to contact me: Jonathan@2Klub.com . The most important promotional tool is word-of-mouth so please come along and check it out and spread the word if you like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW DJs Ian Cashman Posted December 28, 2003 CTW DJs Share Posted December 28, 2003 if the music policy is as good as twist, this looks to be quality.. and you all know i hate 'hard dance' (even the term gets on my tits)... when ever i go to frantic the music is normally [censored] all night and the tunes in twist are such a breath of fresh air. hopefully it'll start spilling over into the larger clubs.. fuk all that Trade anthems tho... move on...get back (hehe) to 'proper' techno!

CTW Members Rick D Posted December 28, 2003 CTW Members Share Posted December 28, 2003 It is good, the first one was at Bar 91, but he moved it to the upstairs of the Nightingale as it was a better venue... The music policy is the same as Trade... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTW Members IAHH1562627749 Posted January 3, 2004 CTW Members Share Posted January 3, 2004 ooh this sounds like fun (at the price of a monday morning). i'm quite curious as to how sunday evenings will fare in b'ham - nightingales is a perfectly balanced venue for that time of weekend tho. i shall certainly be sampling one of the first few offerings to come. looking forward to it (specially as i just can't get into the music that is gettin belted out of clubs at the mo, must be that new generation and their new fangled funky ways) Quote cyber on the inside desperately trying to fit in on the outside hair by tony and guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
