First up in the main room, we proudly present a selection of house music's most revered contemporary DJs alongside a live act that is nothing short of legendary.
Inner City are considered one of the most influential dance acts of all time, they are responsible for some of the best-loved house records of the last 20 years including 'Big Fun', 'Good Life' and 'Pennies from Heaven'. The most talked about act of Amsterdam Dance Event earlier this year, their live set at midnight promises to be a truly unforgettable way to celebrate the New Year.
Inner City will be joined by Junior Jack & Kid Crème, ATFC, Copyright and Lynda Phoenix, their energetic, driving take on house music makes them perfect for the big occasion and they promise an unmissable spectacular this New Year's Eve.
Next, Room Two goes a little deeper with Osunlade, MK, Atjazz and Aaron Ross injecting a bit of tech and a touch of soul into the proceedings. Osunlade is both a celebrated producer responsible for what is surely the underground house track of the year, 'Envision'. Joining Osunlade are AtJazz and Aaron Ross, two vastly experienced DJs unparalleled in their very stylish knowledge of house music.
Finally, Room 3 goes digital disco with Greg Wilson, Ashley Beedle and Simon Morrell. Greg Wilson is one of the scene's most respected and longest-serving DJs, a pioneer of the early 80's electro scene in Manchester and an originator of the current disco/re-edit scene. Wilson is arguably the world's finest party turntablist and a New Year's Eve set from him will be an aural spectacle like no other.
As one-third of Xpress 2, Ashley Beedle is one of the most successful dance artists of his generation, and was instrumental in introducing house music to London, revolutionising both the musical and clubbing landscape of the city. Beedle is known for his eclectic sets, encompassing everything from house to reggae he reaches all points in between.
Super-saver tickets for this unmissable event are now on sale at the ludicrously reasonable price of £25.
