Hold It Down.. with Sugarhill Disco & Collect!

Mercifully our second month of sofa sessions at Liverpool’s Camp & Furnace was considerably less icy and frozen than January and our residents whipped up a great vibe elegantly weaving broken beats with downtempo oddities and lush deep house in front of the roaring fire. We’re back down on Greenland Street in March and this.. read more →

Hold It Down.. with Luke Solomon and Chris Duckenfield

Hold It Down presents: Luke Solomon and Chris Duckenfield Friday 5th April 2013 @The Roadhouse After inviting Nottingham house legends The Inland Knights to our previous city centre foray, it was always going to be a difficult job to program another Roadhouse party, but we think we’ve done a decent job here with not one,.. read more →

Hold It Down.. with Sir Vinyl Instinct

So we battled bitter winds and stormy snows but we well and truly kick started 2013 with two terrific nights in two different cities on our January ditch-the-detox weekend.

Hold It Down Bar Sessions

Well, well, well! We could not have asked for a better ‘ditch the detox bar-room bonanza’ at Camp & Furnace.

But with.. read more →

Hold It Down.. Residents All Night Long

For three years Hold It Down has been a belligerently nomadic party, never sitting still as we’ve erratically lobbed tunes around in chapels, backrooms, horseboxes and fields.. but then at the back end of 2012 we settled down in Red Rum’s bassy catacombs for three brilliant back to back bashes to see out the year.. read more →

Hold It Down.. with Set 2

The flyer is bedecked in Christmas colours. There are snowflakes in the background…this looks like a Christmas party! Oh no it doesn’t! Oh yes it does! It’s the Hold It Down Christmas Bash, but we’ve forsaken the tree and the turkey because we’ve spent all the tinsel budget on another great guest DJ. Set2 have sprung to prominence the hard.. read more →

Hold It Down.. with Slum Science

Winter is coming, the nights are drawing in and the fat man is packing his sleigh. It’s that time of year where everything gets a shade darker, and the clubs get really good, none more so than the dirty little dens of bassy iniquity like Red Rum. After Desi Rocca made the walls wobble with.. read more →

Hold It Down.. with The Inland Knights

Stomping Ground and Hold It Down- two South Manchester based disco, house and techno collectives that have spent the last few years rocking boats, fields, caves and other abstract, on-the-fly locations for improbable parties. After increasingly popping up in basements and backrooms across the city come September we’re descending on Manchester city centre and who.. read more →
