Paradise Factory: Weekend Eighteen

As May ushers in its second bank holiday it’s an irregular weekend once more for the 112-116 behemoth. Eschewing the Friday night in favour of making the most of the elongated weekend and partying down on Sunday, they welcome back some of the firm favourites from earlier on in the year with two spellbinding gigs to whet the appetites of Mancunia’s club land observers.

Marine Parade return after their roadblock party in February for another stunning soiree. Once again Adam Freeland and Evil Nine head off proceedings, the two artists whose canny knack of surmising electro, acid house, techno and swaggering indie rock atop a clattering breakbeat undercurrent continues to hold them in adulation of ravers across the globe. Both have completed ridiculously well received compilations for well known brands in the last eighteen months, Freeland Global Underground and Evil Nine fabricLIVE, and are preparing for a summer crammed with Ibiza and festival dates. Joining them is Marine Parade’s bright new hope Alex Metic. Possessing an equally cunning lack of disregard for genres, Alex’s tune skirt electro, house, breaks and synth pop.

Then on Sunday the star of the opening weekend Steve Angello returns once more, this time with a showcase for his own imprint Size Records alongside German powerhouse Tom Novy. Despite being a measly 23 of age, Angello really has got the world at his fingertips, rapidly becoming one of house music’s biggest stars and one of the few acts who can balance the underground effortlessly with crossover appeal; check how his dance floors will be populated not only by a bevy of girls, but by men more eager to hear his sounds than goggle at his many admirers. Novy is equally as versatile, his recent compilation for Toolroom Knights demonstrating his far reaching appeal.

Krysko and Stereo Slut back them up for a perfect double-header.
