We're so excited to share Yant's recording from our first party back after a long 18 month lockdown. 
We're proud to have witnessed Andy's journey to becoming an incredible DJ/ producer pushing a unique sound and continuing to put Manchester on the map where Techno in concerned. We consider ourselves privileged  to have played a part in his growth and don't need to tell you twice; he's one to watch out for. 

In his own words: 

"To end the year I wanted to share a special live recording from the first weekend back after the UK's lockdown. I played 2 hours for the Meat Free party here in Manchester, which if you don't know already, is a Manchester favourite. Run by an amazing crew of ladies who do a lot for the scene, and are super supportive, and close friends. This was an outdoor party, a sunny day, with everyone raring to go non stop, with a huge stack of F1's down a long outdoor tunnel... I was pretty happy with how the set went and definitely fed off the energy around that we could finally release after being cooked up inside. You can hear it on the recording, at points we mixed in the crowd noise, but didn't keep this through the whole set as the cheers & whistles didn't stop. Neither did the dancing 🕺 I will always have a memory of that day. It was special and at the city i'd call home. Enjoy x
Big love to @blasha&allatt @aalice @lucyironmonger @theladymachine & @freddyk who we'll see play for them 28th January 2022"

We're very excited to bring you The Advent's set from Meat Free, recorded at The White Hotel on the 1st April 2022. 

Cisco was originally meant to play for us in August 2021 but Covid put a stop to that; thankfully we were able to fulfil our goal of having him to play for us and it couldn't have gone any better in our honest opinion. 

Crowd noise included for extra vibes :)

"Back in the second room, the undisputed set of the night was beginning. Werkdiscs and Lux Rec favourite Helena Hauff took over from Objekt and from the second she stepped up, commanded the floor, delivering an absolute monster of a set that showed us exactly why she’s been on the receiving end of so much widespread praise recently.

Grubby, distorted techno, dark and dingy EBM, knackered, brutal electro and rancid acid were all stitched together with impeccable skill as she kept us moving like a crowd possessed. The Hamburg native was constantly grafting, digging records out of her bag and meshing together fresh new records with dusty hidden gems with the skill of a master selector." - - Read the full review: www.skiddle.com/news/all/Meat-Free-Presents-20-Years-of-Blueprint-review/28586

A massive MASSIVE thankyou to @Helena-Hauff for setting off Room 2 of our 20 Years of Blueprint Records event, alongside James Ruskin, Luke Slater, Regis and Objekt.

Since starting the 'Live @ Meat Free' mix series a couple of years ago, @ben-sims has been at the top of our list, so we're delighted to finally be able to put this out. Huge thanks to Ben and Congratulations on being the first DJ to do the treble at Meat Free ;) 

Some words from Ben:  

"Here's my set from an excellent Meat Free party in March. Such a wicked night and always a pleasure to play for the crew. I didn't realise they recorded it at the time but very happy they did.
 On a sadder note, I close with one of my fave Trevino tracks. I met Marcus through a mutual friend nearly 20 years ago; we went record shopping, kept in touch regularly and sent music to each other, plus he did a great remix for my label and only recently we discussed a possible EP too. A truly lovely, passionate, and talented guy, he'll be missed”'
