Nightshade Records 001 Launch Party - Jay Tripwire / Kieran Jandu & Hugo Maher

Nightshade Records celebrates the launch of its debut release, Kieran Jandu & Hugo Maher – Dynamics EP [NSHR001], with an intimate in-store session at Manchester institution Eastern Bloc Records.

Exclusive copies of the NSHR001 12” vinyl will be available to buy at the launch.

For the occasion, Nightshade welcomes Canadian underground heavyweight Jay Tripwire to Manchester as part of the UK leg of his tour.

A fixture in underground house music for more than three decades, Tripwire emerged from Vancouver’s early 90s scene developing a distinctive fusion of deep house, Detroit-influenced techno, minimalism and hypnotic, bass-driven grooves. That approach placed him firmly within the foundations of the sound that became known as tech house.
