What started as a casual Madchester session to nod to Gary ‘Mani’ Mounfield (Stone Roses & Primal Scream) slipped fast into a full psychedelic plunge through Andrew Weatherall’s heaviest basslines, dubbed-out shadows, and Factory-coded deep cuts. A detour that became the destination — the Manchester Effect in full flight.
This mix moves through the key zones that shaped the city’s sound:
the Madchester pulse, the Haçienda haze, the crossover where indie psychedelia, rave pressure, and low-slung groove blur into one continuum.
The current that carried Manchester from rehearsal rooms to warehouse floors and into club culture’s long memory.

Step inside a world wrapped in velvet.
Velvety Grooves VG001 is your invitation to the shadows where the lights glow low, and the air pulses with rhythm. This is deep, sexy, sultry house at its finest—a soundtrack for late-night whispers and bodies moving slow.
From the shimmering glow of Crazy P’s “Changes” (Mario Basanov Remix) to the sensual silk of Finnebassen’s “If You Only Knew,” every beat in this mix drips with warmth and desire. Lisa Shaw tempts you with her sultry vocals on “I Can See It,” while the talented productions of Lovebirds, Eelke Kleijn, Mat.Joe, and more weave grooves smoother than satin sheets.
Basslines slide under your skin. Chords wash over you like silk. Vocals tease and beckon. It’s deep, sophisticated house designed to touch your soul—and everything else.
Whether you’re dancing alone under neon lights or tangled up in someone’s arms, Velvety Grooves VG001 is here to make the night feel endless.
Press play. Close your eyes. And let the velvet take over.
