@ Sankeys , Radium St , Manchester
Friday October 30th
10:30pm - 5am
Colour, Manchester's Biggest Techno night, kicks off the season with a special gig at Sankeys with one of the biggest line-ups we've ever put together.
Taking charge of the whole of sankeys after the success of the Mills gig at Spektrum, we are proud to present:
MAIN ROOM...
**CHRIS LIEBING**
A true techno icon, Chris Liebing’s career is one that spans over a decade of unique achievement. He and his various productions remain at the forefront of polls and line-ups across the globe: award winning radio shows, various labels, and international residencies that all represent his unique talent.
Check out recordings of his Spinclub residencies at Space: a perfect example of what he is all about at the moment; intense and funky, high-octane and growling, organic yet rooted in technical innovation.
We could not have asked for a better person to break us into the Sankeys main room. For those in the know, this one is going to be something truly special.
**SURGEON**
We then started to think long and hard about an artist that could step in and send this gig into the stratosphere.That’s why when it came to us, we couldn’t believe that we had to think about it at all.
When Surgeon came and played for us at our Tresor party in April, his performance became an immediate highlight; technical, forward thinking, and pounding right from the off. Now we’re asked him back to show us again exactly what he can do: the perfect accompaniment to the evening, and the perfect counter to Liebing.
Techno’s leading light returns for one more show, and to give the Sankeys dance floor a workout it truly deserves.
**ED MACKIE**
Colour resident and rising star, Ed (Mucky Beats) will be bringing his fresh and up-front sound straight to the Sankey's dancefloor; direct from his riotous performance at Creamfields this year.
**LOOP DJS** (Jay Gregory & Christian Hernshaw)
Two of our favorite DJ's, and the natural choice to bring their terrace vibe in support of their favorite DJ.
**PHIL DENTON**
SPEKTRUM...
**BAS MOOY**
Bas Mooy will be headlining Spektrum. Bas is one of the most cutting edge techno producers on the planet. His live performances are totaly mind blowing. Fuse that with Spektrums Funktion One sound system and futuristic over head L.E.D. lighting wall and we have an unmissible show!
**JAY KNIGHT**
Jay is a powerful DJ that knows how to own a dance. Look out for the new releases on Locked Records dropping soon, massive slabs of Techno that have been getting serious attention from the top of the techno food chain.
**TIPTOE**
Tiptoe is a outstanding talent that has been working techno crowds for years having been resident for Darkside in Leeds, and the techno experiment in Manchester.
**MARK ANDERSON**
This Colour resident will take charge of the dance floor.
**MAZE & GETH**
