Left, Right, & Centre are hosting a virtual launch party on the 29th of May to celebrate the release of their first EP. You can dive into the event digitally from 4pm, check out the sets in room 1, listen to the EP in room 2, or just chill out in the smoking area. Head over to the Left, Right & Centre website to check it out.   

Having built a presence in the darker recesses of Manchester’s murky underground nightlands, the team behind Left, Right & Centre’s bass-heavy parties are set to stamp their own imprint on the city’s already rich fabric. 

The club night has been operating in Manchester since 2018 and has become a staple of south Manchester club Indigo as well as making regular forays into town and throwing parties at Soup Kitchen, Joshua Brooks, & The White Hotel.   

Bringing fresh, high quality, low-frequency floor-cutters with a focus on artists based in the Ten Townships, their maiden move is this four-track showcase EP, set to land at the back end of May.

‘Metropol’’ from Josh Scott stands out, a busy, loosely familiar track with a satisfying depth carved by subtle rumblings in the low end and shuffling highs at the other. Similarly ‘Drifting Off’ by Korzi is a roomy riddim, introduced with a lofi melody wrapped in off-key rimshots and menacing kicks, using tension and drive to good effect. A tightly constructed, heads down head rocker from Henzo called ‘Duck and Pancakes’ and a swampy, quick-stepper by Heritage and Delo titled ‘Babylon Gone’ round off a notable first foray for the fledgling label.
