● Manchester’s infamous Joshua Brooks reopens under new management. With a £200 000 refit, the new-look Joshua Brooks offers all-day drinking and dining and new additions of a terrace and Cubanitos kitchen.

● Joshua Brooks will play host to a stream of opening parties with globally renowned DJ’s including Darius Syrossian, Mason Collective, Mark Knight and many more.

Manchester’s 24-hour party people can dust off the dancing shoes with the revival of the infamous Joshua Brooks, one of the city’s most adored clubbing institutions.

This iconic venue will reopen its doors to drinkers, diners and ravers on Friday, July 23rd 2021, playing host to techno heavyweight Darius Syrossian, followed by legendary House DJ Mark Knight on Saturday, July 24th 2021.

Proudly taking over an extensive corner plot on Princess Street, Manchester, this clubbing mecca is currently undergoing a £200,000 revamp courtesy of new owners Jorge Meehan and Brian Murphy. This entrepreneurial pair are renowned in the industry for owning and operating shindigs such as Wile Out Festival, Southern Sunset Festival, Social Avenue, Milton Keynes Reggae Festival, Acropolis and many more. With over 20 years of combined experience, they will be turning their expert attention to breathing new life into Joshua Brooks, bringing this historic venue back to its former glory with an extensive ‘back to brick’ refit.

The venue will officially reopen on Thursday, July 22nd, 2021, for an exclusive press launch party with headliners Darius Syrossian alongside home-grown DJ’s Mason Collective, a dynamic trio rising through the underground music scene with their signature high energy grooves and explosive DJ sets.

The new-look Joshua Brooks will be a one-stop-party shop for musically minded Mancunians, combining drinking, dining and dancing from dusk until dawn.

By day, the revamped bar will be a home-from-home for the city’s workers, featuring comfortable seating, exposed brickwork and all of the nostalgic charm for which the venue was known.

There is also the addition of an on-site food kitchen courtesy of “Cubanitos”. Well known at festivals across the country, this campervan turned food kitchen concept will be permanently parked up in Joshua Brooks, offering tantalising Cuban street food from 12 pm-11 pm every day.

Expect traditional Cuban sandwiches, tongue-tingling “Picante” Burgers, artisan Hot Dogs, “Ropa Vieja”, a flavoursome Cuban beef stew and obligatory sides of Dirty Rice, Slaw and “Empanadas”. Dessert lovers can indulge in the Pina Colada Panna Cotta with Dark Rum and Charred Pineapple or a palette cleansing Mojito Sorbet. A small plate menu will also launch in early August, featuring authentic, traditional Cuban dishes but with a modern-day twist.

As the lights go down, early evening drinkers can treat themselves at the bar to expertly crafted Cuban-themed cocktails or one of the many draught beers on offer that includes Camden Hells, Goose IPA and Manchester’s own Union Lager. The new outdoor terrace provides the perfect place for enjoying al fresco drinks and watching the world go by.

Once refreshed, it will be time to go deep into the hallowed underbelly of this infamous venue, where the basement will play host to a handpicked selection of the world’s finest Techno, House and Funk DJ’s. Reviving the spirit of Manchester’s original basement party every weekend from 11 pm-4am will be Phase One DJ’s that includes Manchester heavyweights Mason Collective, drag Queen DJ and producer Jodie Harsh, D&B and Jungle DJ Kahn, Global Fire Record label owner Guy J, French House and Disco DJ Jeremy Underground and many more.

Jorge MD of Joshua Brooks and JBM Events said:

“We are so excited to reopen the doors to Joshua Brooks. When we found out it was no longer returning as a club, we felt compelled to take the project on so Manchester did not lose yet another clubbing institution.We have so much love for the space after running events there for over seven years, and we are so proud to be able to open up once again with the new additions of the kitchen, the terrace and, of course, some of the world’s finest DJ’s.”

Ready to return with a vengeance, Thursday, July 22nd 2021, will play host to an exclusive VIP and press preview party featuring musical maestros Mason Collective and Darius Syrossian who will resurrect the spirit of Manchester’s most famous musical mecca for an ultimate revival rave with many more to come.

UK’s first Dance Music Festival of 2021 gets Green Light from Government

Summer of Love festival is set to welcome thousands of partygoers to the UK’s first full blown dance music festival in Bristol since the Pandemic

Organised by the team behind Bristol’s Lakota Nightclub & Gardens, the festival is set to take place on the first weekend that restrictions are lifted: Saturday 24th and Sunday 25th July. The festival aims to unite friends, old school ravers, and like-minded people as the UK eases its way out of lockdown restrictions. The festival is set in a brand new, secret location just outside of Bristol.

Summer of Love is excited to host an enormous weekend of music, impressive stage builds, festival production and dance performances. The forecast is set to be the best days of the summer, shining over what will be the first moment we are all able to dance together again. It’s going to be a time to join old friends and create history together all in one field of ultimate freedom. This will be a moment we will all be talking about for years to come!

Step aboard one of our freedom buses and let us take you on an adventure into a post lockdown destination where you will arrive at an event like no other. Attendees are able to buy £5 return bus tickets from multiple locations close to the centre of Bristol. Summer of Love’s programming was built around curating a gender balanced lineup. From headliners through to the rising stars of Bristol, they will all be stepping out to perform to thousands of partygoers across the festival’s three spectacular stages (and two more secret stages!)

Headlining the festival on the Saturday are two local superstars with global reputations for energising dancefloors: Eats Everything and Sam Divine.

Having cut his teeth as both a raver and DJ at Lakota, it is fitting to have Eats Everything champion Lakota’s first ever festival. Sam Divine, who hails from Weston-Super-Mare, has been an integral part of growing the house scene in not only the South West and UK but arguably around the globe as the “Queen of Defected”.

Top of the billing for Sunday’s lineup are Wilkinson, Sherelle and Watch The Ride. Platinum drum and bass producer Wilkinson has cemented himself as one of the most successful stars in dance music having had numerous anthems top the UK’s charts.

Meanwhile Sherelle leads a new generation of ravers, fusing cutting-edge drum and bass, jungle and footwork music to a mainstream audience with new generation disruptors. Watch The Ride is the moniker for three legendary figureheads of the drum and bass scene: DJ Randall, DJ Die and Dismantle. The combination of the three artists’ experience and extensive record collections allow Watch The Ride to consistently leave ravers craving more.

Alongside these musical heavyweights, some of the best up and coming talent in the South West will be showcasing their skills, allowing festival goers to discover the stars of tomorrow. Supporting local talent and curating a gender balanced line up were important considerations for the team when programming the festival. Whereas many festival lineups being released have been met with criticism for failing to include female artists, Lakota’s Summer of Love festival has over 50 female artists performing over the two days.

“It’s important for us to inspire women and show that a career as DJ is a realistic aspiration for young women. We also wanted to create a festival that is supportive of the wider communities within the music industry. We’re really proud of the diverse lineup we have put together for our first festival.

We believe that Bristol is blessed to have some amazing talent, both male and female, big and small from all communities. We’re confident that this event represents the diverse talent of the city and UK and will inspire the future female stars of tomorrow by giving womxn a platform to showcase their talents.”

The festival site boasts three high impact stages with massive production, as well as two smaller secret stages, encouraging attendees to wander around the festival site from stage to stage exploring all that the immersive site has to offer. And for the thrill seekers among the crowd, there will be a fairground to enjoy too.

Food is provided by a delicious selection of Bristols favourite local street food vendors, serving a variety of cuisines using the finest locally sourced ingredients. “We are trying to ensure that any impact we have on the environment is as small as possible. We think it’s essential to be conscious of your carbon footprint and should try to improve this whenever you can in your day-to-day life.”

The bars at the festival will also be plastic free, with a plastic alternative being used in place of the standard plastic cups used by most festivals.

Some 495 days after restrictions were first imposed, just like the days of old, this latest ‘Summer of Love’ is almost upon us and when it arrives, the festival will be the perfect place to reconnect and remind us of the core values we all share as humans: peace, love and unity.

Tickets are running low for both days and likely to sell out over the next few days.

Krystal Klear, Digitalism, Moscoman and more step up to rework the original as it marks 20 years since it was first released

Telepopmusik is celebrating the 20 years anniversary of their most iconic song “Breathe” and will release new remixes by Krystal Klear, Moscoman, Digitalism, Kid Francescoli, Mounika, Juicy Cola & Speaking Minds on July 9th 2021. 

Their elegant sound is now firmly ingrained in the public’s subconscious through hit singles, sold-out tours and clever soundtracking on many high-profile advertising campaigns. Yet we should never forget that, above all, they are a band who have only ever simply strived for creative perfection. Their trajectory thus far has been exemplary – a pure case of letting the music do the talking.

‘Breathe’ feat Angela McCluskey, their hit single, stayed in the Billboard Hot 100 for 10 weeks.

Telepopmusik played over 100 gigs from Moscow, Istanbul to the Glastonbury Festival. The band is also performing all over the world with exciting Dj sets mixing deep & acid.‘Genetic World’ received critical and public acclaim following nominations at the US Grammy Awards.

Octan Ibiza has spent the many months of Covid-closure working hard to refurbish its famous open-air Terrace, as well as planning a big return to dancing once restrictions are lifted later this summer. 

There is already a big programme in place for as soon as the club opens. As usual, you can expect that the world’s best house and techno DJs will play, with line-ups coming as soon as restrictions are lifted and the Ibiza government makes a full announcement of their plans.  

In 2019, the brand new Octan quickly established itself as a White Island favourite for those looking for a more underground experience. It boasted a first-ever weekly Apollonia residency with Planet Claire as well as parties like Steve Lawler’s Warriors. With a bold exterior featuring expressive artwork that immediately stands apart, the club has three spaces – The Lab, The Basement and The Terrace. 

The Terrace has been refurbished and repainted in the last year. It now boasts a central 25m square bar that makes it much easier to order drinks. It also brings everyone together in the middle of the terrace for an extra cosy vibe and lively atmosphere beneath a clear-blue Ibiza sky. The walls are adorned with colourful designs from acclaimed Leeds artist Nicholas Dixon, and also contain the hustle and bustle of the crowd who will be chilling and drinking outside. There is now also a large seating area with some suspended shade from the beating sun, just in case you need to take a break from the main action. 

Meanwhile, the club’s Basement is the perfect underground space for those who like it dark and raw. It has low ceilings and a world-class sound system with sleek and stripped back styling. The Lab is the third and final space with its own low key and immersive lighting making it an atmospheric space of pure hedonism. Winter will see the Basement and Lab spaces get further updates ready for a big comeback and full capacity parties from May – October 2022.

Used by music festivals, motor races, the NBA, and English Premier League clubs, the startup has been crucial in post-COVID reopenings; The series A round for the real-time collaborative SaaS platform and its hyper-realistic and interactive 3D Venue Twin feature was led by Pembroke VCT and Eppes Creek Ventures

OnePlan announced today it has raised $3.8M in Series A financing from investors in the UK and U.S.. The two-year-old startup streamlines the design and production process through the world’s best selection of 2D, 3D, satellite and aerial maps, providing real-time collaboration. For venue owners, it unlocks huge operational and commercial benefits through a hyper-realistic, fly-through-able Venue Twin of any stadium or arena. Clients using OnePlan include Arsenal F.C., Chelsea F.C. and the Brooklyn Nets, and Commonwealth Stadium in Edmonton, Canada. Over 2000 events across 50 countries have used OnePlan, which is seen as a single source of truth for planners.

The round was led by Pembroke VCT and Eppes Creek Ventures, a consortium of leading investors from the fields of sports, finance, music and entertainment. Funding will expand the team, accelerate growth, develop new products and scale internationally.

“We’re excited to start the next leg of our journey with an amazing team of investors who share our vision for OnePlan,” said Paul Foster, Founder and CEO of OnePlan, who has also advised Interpol, FIFA World Cups, F1, Commonwealth Games and the upcoming Paris 2024. “Above all, we’re passionate about continuing to help our customers create amazing events in a simpler and more efficient way.”

Foster used his previous experience planning six Olympics and Paralympics games and festivals of all kinds to solve a major problem: planning events is costly and time consuming, with non-specialist map tools used and email causing version control nightmares. The solution used cutting edge technology to make planning deceptively simple, and to provide tools that can work for any size event from a local fair to a triathlon spanning multiple cities.

Imagine managing a music festival for 100,000 people and being able to use one platform to manage fencing, barriers, crowd control, camping, parking, staging, vendors and security. The Social Distancing Toolkit designs vaccine passport checks and COVID tests, calculates crowd flow and plans social distancing and seat assignment. Venue Twin duplicates every aspect of a stadium or arena in 3D, enabling organizers to fly-through a space and optimize fan experience using Seat and Suite Views. Broadcasters and sponsors can test sightlines and signage. The organizer can even test the effects of a sudden rain storm. (See Venue Twin in action).

Pembroke is a British venture capital trust with an extensive track record with innovative companies, including in the design and hospitality spaces. Eppes Creek is the Silicon Valley venture capital firm led by Brady Murray which funds some of the most relevant technology companies of the new decade.
