Wicked night. Great music, DJs and overall vibes. The venue is amazing brilliant space comprised of 2 arches. The bar in one and dancefloor in the other with a Funktion One soundsystem. Will definitely be coming to this event again

About

2 legendary DJs, 1 legendary brick arch club venu on Brighton beach, a function one sound system, fish, chips, get dressed up or down (your choice), plenty of wobble. No brainier Hardway Brothers meets Monkton Uptown (and sometimes Downtown) is the studio collaboration between Sean Johnston (ALFOS) and Duncan Gray (tici taci). In 2021 they DJ'd together for the first time - an improvised 4 deck mash up that journeyed between the dub sounds of studio one and cosmic disco, taking in all points along the way (post punk, proto House, electro and funk). No road map, just the trust between musical partners, a mighty arsenal of tunes, and many years of experience. Boom ?
