Code Warehouse // Friday 19th January // £27.50
return in 2018 with favourite Patrick Topping, who’s now approaching half a million likes on Facebook, some achievement for a man who was playing at house parties in Sheffield just 2 years ago. Topping’s distinctive deep house sound is both futuristic and classic, expect a lot of drops and to burn off all those mince pies.
Hope Works // Friday 26th January // £7-18
Sheffield’s techno institution team up with their new festival No Bounds to bring back man of the moment, Stingray, whose electro turntablism formed one of the biggest comebacks of 2017. He’s joined by fierce selector Josey Rebelle and a load of talent in room 2, with NTS radio’s re:ni amongst the headliners.
The Harley // Friday 26th January // £3-7
You may know Henry Wu – AKA Kamaal Williams – from his effervescent keys on the critically acclaimed Yussef Kamaal album Black Focus which came out in November 2016. Dubbed the “future sound of London” by Gilles Peterson, it raised Wu’s profile as both a DJ and producer – it’s about time he returned to Sheffield for a headline date and have outdone themselves with this booking. Check out our interview with Sweats and Kamaal Williams’ new single below.
Code Warehouse // Friday 26th January // £27.50
The new wave of northern house music producers is reaching breaking point, with Patrick Topping, Richy Ahmed and Solardo dominating everywhere from London to Ibiza.

O2 Academy // Saturday 27th January // £18
