Band on the Wall’s monthly liquid drum n bass night kicks off 2013 with a stellar line-up featuring one of the finest DJs to emerge out of the Manchester scene for years, Dub Phizix, alongside very special guests Commix plus main men Marcus Intalex, DRS and Bane.
Please note we’re kicking off the proceeding earlier this year with all the action beginning at 10.30pm.
Dub Phizix
Now and again, an artist comes along and breaks the mould and leaves their mark. The last 2 years have been a busy time for Mr Phizix, he has had a number of releases for such prestigious labels, such as Exit, Soul:R, Critical, Dispatch, Samurai, Commercial Suicide, Hospital & Alignment. He is one of the key producers on the DRS album “I Don’t Usually Like MC’s But…”. Not forgetting the global phenomenon that is “Marka”, which also featured Skeptical & Strategy. This cross pollinating anthem has caused a storm within electronic music and has become an instant classic. The production standards of his tunes are of a higher level, a level that most beat makers aspire to reach. In 2013 he will continue to bring fire to a dancefloor near you, starting with his hometown, Manchester.

It has been a while since Manchester has witnessed Commix perform.
