HEREAFTER

A huge heart felt thank you to everyone who parties with us for our closing party of 2024! 🖤 Never quite experienced a dance floor with such infectious passions. 9 hours of pure love you showed us and yet again we’re left speechless! 🦋 A few clip from a seemly night of storey telling music thanks to @francescofarfaofficial @__athers @ozone________ @saaaaaaaaamara 🫂🫶

To the place we now call home 🖤 During a period of time where the likeminded from across the country flocked to unite in a community that resides in Manchester. We danced, explored & connected our way across the city exploring venues from industrial fridges, to basements & plenty of kitchens. Discovering new love’s & friends that drew us closer & closer. Creating opportunities to collaborate with families & likeminded parties that presented one of a kind occasions. Amazing musical talent, Special photographers & set design artists conjoined, we grew together creating a platform to celebrate with projects for us all. So much love to you all. Our journey was guided to a special pub on Cheetham Hill Road. Our safe haven, the DBA, is now cemented in our history and we are so lucky to call it home. A massive thank you to Mark, Will and all the DBA staff that have looked after us time after time. A special team goes so far in making the nights what they are. We’re so excited to get tucked back up in our little sanctuary & we’d love you to join us. See you next week, let’s make it a birthday to remember. Final release tickets moving swiftly 🖤

Our next chapter… 📖 After struggling to imagine a sustainable future for our projects back home, we knew we had to look outward, to learn, to expand, and to understand how real club culture worked in cities that lived and breathed it. Liverpool became our home as we fleeted there weekend after weekend connecting with new friends and family that we value so dearly to this day. The journey spread across some beloved venues like North Shore, Meraki, Brick St, WAV & even lead to a showcase in Gibraltar. Each taught us something different and educated us on what it really means to build nights with love for the artists at the centre. We learnt a lot and will be forever grateful for the city and its people that shaped us. It wasn’t without challenges & as it pressed us to understand the true sacrifices it takes to run a party. But the friendships, the lessons, and the people we met made every risk worth it. Moments we’ll never forget all captured in theirentirety in these videos. The city taught us what really matters, the community, people, and passion are the heart of this culture. Every person. Every night. Every combination of people in the room. None of it lasts forever, and that’s what makes it so special. It’s time to reunite, we can’t wait to see you next Saturday as we celebrate 4 years 🖤

Celebrating 4 years, we’re taking it back to where it all began in 2021. HEREAFTER was born from the lack of places to dance in our area: dreamed up in a tiny home office during the pandemic by two best mates determined to make something happen. With a shoestring budget and an incredible group of friends, a real community formed. DIY to the core: cable-reel tables, reclaimed materials, building everything by hand. Of course, nothing worth doing comes without a few setbacks. We lost our original site after word spread about the music and were told the neighbours would “never forgive” an event with DJs, classic small-town energy. What followed was days of frantic scouting, driving into any farm or field that looked even remotely suitable… until we found the perfect spot. A historic corner of the Cheshire countryside that fit the vision completely. The first edition was unforgettable. Our younger selves and a very special ten centuries soundsystem heard 7 miles away at nearby campsites, meant we couldn’t return the next year. But maybe that one-off magic is what made it special. We’ll never forget the friends and family who volunteered, grafted, and believed in us. HEREAFTER exists because of you. Now we’re ready to reunite for our 4th birthday on Saturday 6th December in Manchester, at our new home base, the DBA. Would love to see you there 🖤

It’s time to get deep… The Hereafter Mix Series returns with an hour of deep, rolling wax from family favourite and Liverpool’s own technical craftsman, Kirwan. Nostalgic, tripped-out minimal & chuggy house built to lock you in and let you drift. If the grey skies are getting heavy, tune out and lose yourself for a while. A proper selector. A beloved friend. Hereafter with Kirwan, deep in the mix. Tune in, link in bio

This year marks 4 years of HEREAFTER and we are so proud to be looking back on the journey we have had. Hereafter started with a mission to provide underground artists with opportunities and to create rememberable experiences for us all to enjoy. With so many factors putting strains on events & music there are fewer opportunities than ever up for grabs & the gap between established and up and coming talent grows further. We’re proud to be doing our bit contributing to the local scene and continuing to use Hereafter as a platform to support our community. Over the next few weeks we’ll be reflecting on some of the incredible times we’ve had across this years as we build up to celebrate our 4th birthday. We’re back with a signature late night lock in showcasing some of the best up and coming talent from across the North West. Keep your eyes peeled for tomorrow & we can’t wait to bring the family back together 🖤
