Manchester Central Library UPDATE - THE OLD & THE NEW

If you get a chance, check out the newly refurbished and reopened Manchester Central Library. It reopened to the public today & it's a very impressive mix of refurbished original feature and new design. 

A few photos below, also including the accessible parts of the Town Hall Extension

Erase The Tapes 004 - The Bridge - Manchester - Saturday March 22nd

Not sure what this is?

Tomorrow I'm playing the first hour or so at Erase The Tapes, taking place upstairs at The Bridge on (no surprises  Bridge Street in central Manchester. It's a nice little intimate do, friends playing records, no pretence, big guests or queues.  It's free in & starts around 9pm going on til 2-ish (flyer below)

I'll be playing a pretty mellow early set, probs with a few records from this recent mixtape - for a sense of the later on soundtrack, check out this ace mix on a more house & techno thing, by another of the resident DJs, Isey:

READING ROOM : Barter Books, Alnwick, Northumberland, UK

Wall design at end of space

So if you're ever up in Northumberland and have a few hours spare make sure you check out Barter Books. An Alnwick institution & located in a converted railway station, it's home to 1000s of second hand books. You're welcome to browse the books over coffees, spend all day & generally enjoy the atmosphere. Well worth a visit...
