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.

Sunset to Sunrise Soulful House Sessions Vol. 2
The warm journey continues…
This second installment picks up where the sun left off—gliding through Balearic beats, shimmering daytime disco, and deep, heartfelt soulful house grooves. Opening strong with the irresistible “Boogie With Ex” by Exte C, the mix glows with summer-soaked energy before diving into dancefloor gold like The Vision & Roy Ayers’ “Wasting”, Shaun Escoffery’s “Days Like This (Spinna & Ticklah Mix)”, and the lush bounce of Hot Natured’s “Benediction.”
As the night deepens, so does the groove—Purple Disco Machine’s remix of Lizzo’s “About Damn Time” and Dr Packer’s take on Siedah Garrett’s “Do You Want It Right Now” elevate the mix into peak-hour bliss.
And just when you think it’s over, the journey lands beautifully with a stunning remix of Sade’s “Kiss of Life”—a closing track that melts into the sunrise.
Soulful. Uplifting. Timeless.
Save it, share it, and let the music take you from golden hour to first light.
