GRAEME PARK: Live recording from the Vintage Warehouse

On 27th December 2015, Up Yer Ronson returned to their spiritual home at The Pleasure Rooms, Leeds for a one off 'Homecoming Party'...it was one of the best parties we have put on and SOLD OUT with weeks still to go. The venue is now called Bar Soba but as soon as you walked through those doors you knew you were back at the place we arguably had our best years from 1994-1996. We installed a Funktion One sound system, had a custom made DJ booth, raised high above the dance floor, just like the one we played in 21 years ago!! The atmosphere was next level and the added nostalgia of being back in our old stomping ground topped it off! This picture was taken at the end of the night when the lights had been switched back on. It sums up the night perfectly....everyone smiling, hugging each other and looking up to the DJ's in the box above chanting 'one more...one more' It was a moment we will cherish forever and one you can now relive as we release the live recordings from both the upstairs sets in the main room and sets downstairs on the ground floor...both rooms were packed and going off from the start. Following Neil Metzner's seamless vinyl set was the man who made this room his own back in the day...this was Marshall's floor and seeing him stood up in the DJ booth some 21 years after he last played there was a proper surreal moment. He rolled back the years with a sublime set of Ronson classics and more recent tracks that had the place rocking from start to finish....enjoy! x

We will be doing it all again on 28th May when we recreate the infamous Space Terrace at Mint Warehouse. Check the event page for more details: www.facebook.com/events/168000040241131/

HACIENDA 03.04.90 Pt2 Graeme Park

Born & bred in Leeds, Paul Murray was brought up on a healthy diet of acid house parties, illegal raves and the legendary Hacienda in Manchester.

In 1993 Paul was offered an exclusive Friday night residency at 'UpYerRonson' The Music Factory, Leeds where he gained his stripes as a leading House DJ playing alongside and gaining recognition from the likes of Sasha, Graeme Park, Paul Oakenfold, Frankie Knuckles, Tony Humphries, M-People & Sister Sledge to name just a few. He held the residency for 6 fun filled years of madness & wicked parties. Ask him now what was the highlight of his 6 years at 'UpYerRonson' and he'll tell you that every Friday was different and having clubbers actually coming to check his sets out rather than the so called 'big name' DJs was a compliment and testament to the talent & ability he has to create a vibe only that man Muzzcroft could do.

In 1996, his unique style and amazing talent got him his first summer residency at Amnesia, Ibiza where his sets on the terrace alongside Brandon Block were legendary and rocked the crowds week in week out. From his residency at Amnesia came offers to guest DJ at some of the Islands biggest clubs including Pacha, Es Paradis & Manumission and saw him regularly fly out to Majorca to play for Club Cream at their weekly night at BCM. Paul also hosted the pre-club parties at Cafe Mambo playing with some of the industries biggest DJs including Roger Sanchez, DJ Sneak & Erick Morillo. 

At the end of his first full season in Ibiza in 1996, Javi the owner of Cafe Mambos offered him to return next summer and become the new season resident DJ. Paul reluctantly tuned the offer down due to work commitments back in the UK but has continued to grace the magical white Isle and guested at clubs and bars from 1997-2000 where he played at some amazing one off parties.

Paul recently brought the UpYerRonson parties out of retirement for a series of one off parties. 
In August 2014 he put on a special party at The Faversham, Leeds to commemorate the 20th Anniversary of the residency UYR held at The Pleasure Rooms between 1994-1996. 
August 2015 was the 21st Anniversary of UpYerRonson's sold out party they put on at Space, Ibiza in 1995. So to celebrate that amazing day, they put on an all day / all night terrace party and set about recreating the infamous Space Terrace on the outside area of Mint Warehouse, Leeds. The party was such a success that it's been placed up there with one of the best they've ever done. 
UpYerRonson ARE BACK and now throw 2 annual Day & Night Terrace Parties a year (end of May bank holiday Saturday & end of August bank holiday Saturday) from 2pm-2am at Mint Warehouse, Leeds and an annual Christmas Blowout Party on Mad Friday at Mint Club, Leeds.

In December 2016, UpYerronson decided to celebrate the 21st Anniversary of their Pleasure Rooms residency by taking over the original venue (now called Bar Soba)and transformed it back into The Pleasure Rooms for one night only! They even recreated the raised mezzanine floor where the DJs had to climb up a ladder to get to. Paul said "Being up there was quite surreal looking down on the crowd below thinking that we would never of thought that 21 years later, we'd be up here again playing music to the UpYerRonson crowd!"
