Manchester Clubs of the Week ft. Juicy, Transmission, Marcellus Pittman & more

Fri 9 Sep – Summit @ Band On The Wall
Band On The Wall hosts a new clubbing project from one of the city’s global representatives,
MC DRS. The night describes itself as a ‘journey of bass music discovery’, refreshingly unwilling to pigeonhole itself and an ideal venue to do so, having one of the best sound systems about. The premiere night sees Children Of Zeus grace the stage – Tyler Daley and Konny Kon have smashed it with their debut single Still Standing, filling a much needed gap in street soul / hip hop. Metalheadz repper, DRS collaborator and regular Soul:ution selector Lenzman drops in – plus expect an ultra-special guest.
Tickets: £10, www.ticketline.co.uk

Fri 9 Sep – Juicy: Summer Jams @ Gorilla
Manchester’s hip hop power duo, Oscar Wildstyle and Wiggy Smalls, see off the summer in style with fresh and classic R’n’B, hip hop and bashment.
Tickets: £3/5, www.gorilla.seetickets.com

Fri 9 Sep – The Flipside w/ Dr Kruger (NTS Radio) @ Fallow
The Flipside is one of south Manchester’s hidden gems, a monthly shindig down at Fallow Cafe. Residents Omas and Orko (of the At Large crew) team up with Joe In Ohio (from the excellent Flyin’ Easy club night) to bring slabs of deep, rare soul to your ears. This month they’re joined by NTS Radio’s Dr Kruger, known for both his show House Call and his new London-based club night, Colour One Tear Black.
