Good news; it’s that time of year again that the Warehouse Project calendar has been released and you can get to working out how many you can afford to go and begin planning your Autumn around the dates which you’ve allocated for the sesh. Tickets are going on sale at 9am Friday 21st July so make sure your alarms are set and your sick note is typed up to send your boss first thing in the morn.
Last year we made tracks up to Manny thrice for Warehouse; for Curated by Skepta, Ninja Tune, and Kurupt FM’s Champagne Steamrooms. The WHP17 showcases some real talent from across the board, and we’ve picked out a few below that we’re especially keen for.
As well as taking place each weekend at its spiritual home of Store Street, where it returned to last year, The Warehouse Project will also hold a number of specially curated events at a host of other Manchester venues. Some of the big names this year include Daphni, Marcel Dettmann, Robert Hood, Nina Kraviz, Jackmaster, Hunee, Mura Masa, Annie Mac, Giggs, Andy C, Craig David, The Chemical Brothers, Jamie Jones, Fatima Yamaha, Adam Beyer, Laurent Garnier, Chase & Status, and the one and only Nadia Rose.
One of the biggest nights on my radar atm is the SN1 / Giggs on Friday the 13th of October. Store Street works well for grime music; it’s dark, imposing, gritty, and the stages have no blindspots. P-Money gave one of the best performances I’ve possibly ever seen last year on the Skepta night, very closely followed by Casisdead. If there are two London grime performers out there right now who have a chance of trumping P & Cas, it’s Giggs & Nadia Rose (I don’t even have time to go into the return of Devlin, that’s for a rainy day). The Apollo has never been so definitively shut down in its entire existence as it was by Giggs back in April, and as for Rose, she’s legit the waviest most talented female mc out there for sure. Check this out, and if you like it reach for her Toddla T freestlye too…
Check out the full line-up below, and good luck getting your tickets fam, cya there.
Peace.
