As you know, we have a brand new space: the other people place - named in honour of Detroit electro pioneer James Stinson’s solo project, which remains an ongoing obsession for us.
And you know us… we’re party people at heart. To celebrate the public launch of the other people place, we’re throwing a free-entry, two-floor FUN-ction this Saturday night.
Down in renae, Zèyla takes the controls from early doors, seamlessly shifting through dancehall, Latin and funk before Ayy Den tags in at midnight, giving energetic house, snappy electro and wall-shaking UK funky. You know how Saturdays feel in renae - the best people, the best tunes, the best time, but now there’s more.
Things kick off in t.o.p.p. at 10, as queer musician and DJ Modema fills the room with dark, dubbed-out downtempo, dreamy breaks and flirtations with light-footed techno - the perfect introduction to the 4-point Syva system and a sound tailor-made for this intimate space.
At midnight, Aletha and Yant step up for a high-octane B2B, trading house, electro and dub techno weapons deep into the night. Low lights, high haze, and the right tunes to move you till close.
The perfect space to get lost in.
ps. ignore the typo in the weekly lineup 🌝
first week of march in renae 🌺
Tuesday - Deptford George
Green Island founder member Deptford George drops in for a Tuesday night session, spinning soulful house, disco, funk, soul and deeper electronic music.
Weds - Amaka
On a mission to spread joy when she steps behind the decks, Amaka comes through blending broken beat, soulful house and highlife into a spiritual experience. Leave your troubles behind and find solace in the groove.
Thurs - Mouridis & Friends
Our beloved Mouridis steps into the living room of his home away from home, inviting some of his nearest and dearest musical pals round for a little house party. Knowing him like we do, there’ll be deepest house, dubbest techno, hi-tech jazz and mind warping electronics to shake a leg to.
Friday - Léna C invites Earthly Measures
Manchester’s favourite Bretonne Léna C returns to the renae decks to celebrate the release of her sublime new EP ’Stimuli’, a stunning distillation of her signature style of globe-trotting grooves. Together with the folks from top label Earthly Measures, she’ll transform the bar into a tropical paradise, so prepare to drift into dance floor bliss.
Saturday - T.O.P.P. launch
For the official launch of our second space, TOPP (The Other People Place) we’re throwing a two room, party spectacular with Zèyla’s reggae, dancehall, and Latin sounds paving the way for Ayy Den’s UK funky, electro and house under the red lights of the ground floor. In the sonically-enhanced TOPP, Modema will blend bass electronics and garage before Aletha and Yant send us into the stratosphere with a dub techno, electro and house B2B drenched in acid.
Sunday - Bent Label launch
Celebrating their evolution from party to label with the release of the pacey and powerful BENT001, Bent Hedonism take over renae with a stacked line up of Blasha & Allatt, Luke Daniels and Esmé. Come through and experience the queer-led sounds shaping the North West.
