THE BEGINING OF THE END

Dear Contortees.

Its with a heavy heart that we must inform you that Contort Yourself as you know it will be no more as of 2011.

As a famous man once said “We’ve had a good run”… and we thank everyone who’s ever played or attended any of our parties. It’s all of you that have made Contort Yourself so special to us over the past four years, so Thank You.

We’re going to go out in true style with our NYE party at Night & Day this weekend. As you know the door price is LOW and there’ll be plenty of drinks offers on the night to help loosen your boots. We’ll also have a whole host of friends joining COYO residents on the decks to see things out proper. SO if you’ve not made plans as yet we’d love to see you and help us celebrate the special night.

For more information and ticketlinks check the event page here: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=149187165128421

Big Love.

Team CoYo.

PS. We’ll still be running our blog with free mixes and party vibes dished out on the regs as well as ruining other peoples parties when given the opportunity as guest djs… who knows there could even be a few one offs every now and again?!?

MEGA MEGA MIX

Not only will this be the last Contort Yourself of 2010 but it also heralds the last Contort Yourself in our current format… With the New Year on the horizon, we’re taking a brief sabbatical over January returning back in Feb 2011 (same dates, same venue, don’t worry) but in an altogether different guise. We’ll leave it at that for the time being, but be sure to watch this space for more info early in the new year… so to celebrate the end of this year we though it only right to get stuck into everyone’s favourite the MEGA MIX, but with a little added MEGANESS!

The best Djs from Manchester’s Most awesome nights weren’t available, so we scrabbled together this bunch of idiots to get a bit too drunk and play totally awesome music right down your listening holes.

Dan English (Naïve Melody)
Oscar Wildstyle (Everywhere)
The Countach (Jupiter Rooms)
Benjamin Yourself (CoYo / Freitags)
S’il Vous Plait
Oldboy (Eat My Beat / CoYo)
Natalie Esquire (Murkage / Super Super)
Scott Yeah & GezMagus (CoYo)

We cant think of a better way to see off the end of the year and this chapter of Contort Yourself, so we hope you can join us for what will prove to be an unforgettable night!

SATURDAY 4TH DECEMBER
11PM-3AM THE ROADHOUSE, MANCHESTER
£4 b4 11.30 / £5 Adv or Flyer / £6 After.

WHAT WENT WILD?

In another new and pretty much action packed topic that we’re staring on this blog we’ll be attempting to sift through our hazy memories of the last rave, looking at the back of record bags, checking out playlists and basically asking people that were less drunk than us to round up the tunes that went off and made the night.

so without further a do… here’s (from what we can remember) went wild:

Jamie Jones – Ruckus
Skream- I Love The Way
Mr. Oizo – Flatbeat
Shit Robot – I Got A Feeling
Kelis – Millionaire
Debruit – Nigeria What
Beastie Boys – Sabotage (Alex Metric Remix)
Jackpot – Brief Encounter
Diplo – Percao ft. Pantera Os Danadinhos
Joris Voorn – Sweep The Floor
Tony Lionni – Found A Place
