The Vox Warehouse has come to prominence of late with a string of big parties, but this one is surely their biggest yet. with the summer bank holiday weekend seeing ramm host both Claude VonStroke and Josh Butler on Sunday 24th August.
Leeds has long been a big player in the north's house music domain, with festivals such as Cocoon in the Park and Mint festival highlighting the City's intent to remain a prime destination for fans of the genre. This time around Dirtybird's Claude Von Stroke gets involved with Leeds' thriving nightlife, aiming to satisfy the city's salivating dance floor maniacs.
Name any major club and the godfather of Dirtybird will have played it. Claude Von Stroke hails from Detroit and is bringing the integral part of his renowned Dirtybird parties in San Francisco's Golden Gate park to Leeds, himself.
His label is most acquainted with a dirty brand of house music than carries the influences of hip hop, drum 'n bass and funk, a blend that bridges maximum connection with club house heads. (which you can see from this set with his Dirtybird compatriots above)
Leeds based duo Audiojack fly in from Ibiza to ply their hometown with some of their characteristically jackin' sounds. The Gruuv records bosses have been rocking some of Europe's most discerning night spots for some time now, with their silky, sexy basslines and shuffling rhythms making all the right noises in the modern house circuit.
Joining them will be Josh Butler (read our interview with him here). The British producer fuses classical house with modern twists (evident from his hit 'I Got A Feeling' see below) to create a unique sound that has seen him converge with some of the biggest names. Butler brings energetic house that indulges into the realms of techno, a blend that really is made for the dancefloor.
Rising talent Filthy Rich also fronts the heavyweight bill - he is one half of the Spektre outfit with Paul Maddox and has released on some of the hottest imprints around. He deviates between the lines of house and techno whilst maintaining his trademark funky groove which has earned him fans from far and wide. Bag your tickets here.
