MANCHESTER MADE ME FUNKY SUGAR RUSH DJ ANNOUNCEMENT - ALAN HARTLEY

More than three decades since he was first bitten by the house bug, it is clear that Alan Hartley has lost none of his passion for the dance floor, whether he is playing to it or dancing on it. Having fallen in love with house music the first time he heard it in a club in north west England in 1986, it would be another 10 years before he purchased his first pair of decks. But, in the time since, Alan has established himself as an eclectic DJ capable of reading and reacting to any crowd and a successful promoter creating one of the most glamorous brands of the Noughties with Twisted Elegance.

Always seeing himself as a clubber first and DJ second, Alan started out DJing in a backstreet of Liverpool at the now legendary G-Bar and the last 20 years have seen him play for some of the UK’s biggest house nights. As the new Millennium dawned, his flamboyant style and dynamic sets also made him the perfect booking for glamorous party brands like Chuff Chuff, Ultima and Peruvia. He later became a regular face for brands like Garlands, Venus and Miss Moneypenny’s.

In 2002 Alan turned his hand to promoting and co-founded Twisted Elegance at Manchester’s Ampersand nightclub. With its glam house soundtrack, lavish production and teams of entertainersit quickly became one of the country’s most popular dance floors. Indeed, in 2007, Pete Tong declared Twisted Elegance the ‘new kings of glam’. However, after five hectic years promoting, Alan decided the time was right to go back to his roots and at the end of that year he gave give up the glitter cannons to focus on DJing. It proved to be a wise move and one which saw his DJ reach widen dramatically.

Within months he would be making his debut for Creamfields. Booked to play the closing gig in the VIP arena at the festival’s 10th anniversary in 2008, Alan left the crowd panting for more at four in the morning on a soaking wet Saturday and ensured himself repeat bookings for 2009 and 2010. In 2011 he was asked to open the main stage at the festival, the same stage that just hours later would be taken over by none other than David Guetta. Alan’s magnetic Sunday afternoon set enticed bleary-eyed festival-goers from their tents and filled the field with close to 5,000 clubbers winning him a whole new army offans.

Four years later Alan had the honour of opening another Creamfields main stage –this time at the brand’s inaugural festival in Ibiza at Ushuaia. 2011 also saw him achieve another of his dreams when he landed a set at Space, Ibiza, playing El Salonat Carl Cox’s Revolution night.

Beyond Twisted Elegance and Creamfields, Alan’s careerhighs have included playing alongside his own DJ hero, Roger Sanchez, his residency for Reminisce festival, at Heroes of Housein Birmingham and for FACE and Classics Fest in Liverpool. He has also made his presence felt in Ibiza with an annual residency for Sin Sundays at O’Beach and for Mansion playing in the Wild Corner at Hi at the Eric Pridz and Camelphat showson the White Isle.

Versatile and skilled at steering the dance floor, Alan firmly believes clubbers’ satisfaction comes before musical education. He is equally happy playing the disco, anthems classics –that create ‘those goose bump moments’ –as he is playing big room driving house, tech and techno...In his own words ‘house without boundaries’.

3D visuals of the event: - https://fb.watch/5wMWAiV9gX/

Join us on this journey……….
Manchester Made Me Funky is doing something remarkable, it is not just reviving our scene but making it explode into a whole new era. We are not here to put on a run of the mill club night, we want to bring a Manumission style event to Manchester, and that is what we will do. This is the start of something BIG! The group is now over 6000 strong, it’s incredible and shows the passion of its members for the scene and the music we love.

This group proves without any doubt that there is still a huge demand for this scene and the quality funky house music which shaped our lives, and brought us together for more than a decade. It is very obvious you all want to do it all over again. Infact, it seems you don’t want to do it for one last time, but you want it back in your lives. The feel-good factor and the happiness spending time with like-minded people is something we all want and can all look forward to. Even if it is not on a weekly basis, a few times a year would be awesome, I think that is agreed by all, and the general consensus of the group, and that is what we will give to you.

There is no point at all in doing this half-hearted, and we have to think big with this if we are to reignite the fire. A club would not be big enough for a reunion if everyone attended, so we have picked a super venue with multiple areas, big enough to house the thousands who want to attend, and big enough to put on a grand showcase.

The line-up for the event is very important, but the production, décor, and performers will really make this a true funky house carnival of epic proportions. We will bring you Elrow style production that’s funky and classy. As you all know this event is a labour of love, it is not about money. That’s why its going to be so special, it comes from the heart.

We would also like to support a charity in doing this event, a lot of us have lost friends with mental health issues. I myself lost several due to this, I put up a post about my good friend Jordan King who was one of the most well-known faces on the scene, so I feel the perfect charity to support would be Mind mental health charity. Any profit that is left at the end of the event will be donated to this worthy cause, so by supporting us and buying your tickets, you will contribute to building the event and our scene again, but also this amazing charity.

To keep the crowd select there will be no pay on the day, it is a ticket only event. The main place this event is being advertised is in our private group, we have vetted everyone in the group so we know we will get the perfect crowd. On the day everyone that buys a ticket and attends will be issued with a Manchester Made Me Funky membership card, and the first people that attend and support the first event, are the ones that will have priority access and be able to attend our future events, as we will be making it a members only brand. Please dress to impress, no sportswear, smart trainers ok, no large logos, no attitude, just cool mother funkers!

Tickets are currently £25 and eventually will increase to £30, then £40. VIP tickets sold out in 90 minutes! For £25 this is sensational value, an event like this would normally be £50 plus. Afterparty tickets are on sale at the reduced rate of just £7.50.
Our promise is this, every bit of money we make will go back into the production of the event to make it as mind blowing as could possibly be imagined, and any profits left from the event will go to our nominated charity MIND.

Buy tickets on our website: - https://www.mademefunky.co.uk

You know how much we love this and mind body and soul are going into every aspect of creating it.

This is not just a reunion; it will be the beginning of a whole new era in Manchester’s music scene. Be part if it!

The Manchester made me funky experience will simply leave you spellbound….
