Sauce ft. Content DJs at Kraak

With the sad (though hopefully temporary) loss of Content on Manchester’s club calendar, upstart promoters Sauce officially launch their new party at Kraak, featuring Content DJs Dan McGlynn and Lee Daley plus Sauce resident DJs and co-founders Dave Owen and Curtis Randles. We had the pleasure of attending the Sauce soft launch boat party last month ahead of their big announcement, and if that experience was anything to go by, expect to hear a carefully crafted blend of sun-kissed balearic and old school Chicago house, and even a bit of dirty Detroit and classic UK techno. Sauce looks set to be a hedonistic yet tasteful exploration of past and present dance floor-friendly electronic music, put together by a team of people who are not only obsessive vinyl junkies, but know how to throw one hell of a party with an open-minded, open-door, inclusive vibe. Perfectly positioned, then, to progress what the excellent Content started.
