MASTERING THE ART OF THE B2B

If you’re curious to explore the intricacies of playing out as a pair, then join us for our final Mix Nights Online of the year. In this session, Steffi, one half of Blasha & Allatt will be joining us to share some insight into how the legendary DJ duo have cultivated their symbiotic energy behind the decks. This workshop will cover:

ABOUT BLASHA & ALLATT
Blasha & Allatt – honorary Mancunian natives and co-founders / residents of the infamous Meat Free parties, of which are hailed as one of the wildest techno raves in the UK. The duo are revered in their local scene as much as they are championed by many of the artists and peers they have played alongside. Whether at the helm at Manchester’s White Hotel, holding it down at Blitz Club or cruising into the early hours at Bret, Blasha & Allatt bring it every time. Weaving through techno, house and back again, their sets are a relentless force that have regularly blessed dancefloors at clubs such as FOLD, Berghain and Radion, and festivals such as Freerotation, WHOLE and Awakenings to name a few. Cementing their love for the Amsterdam scene, the pair became residents for the esteemed Vault Sessions crew back in 2022. You can catch them regularly doing their thing in the city whether it’s peak time at Bret or an all nighter at Radion. The duo are never content and always looking to push the boundaries of their music and within the scene. 2022 saw the launch of Frixxxion – a new inclusive space for queer techno raving in the heart of Manchester’s underground that has been welcomed by locals and out-of-towners. Having acquired a strong string of releases on labels such as Blue Hour, Positive Source and Symbolism, the future looks fruitful for the sound of Blasha & Allatt.
