another great night in store...obviously not keen on playlists...its pointless...be THERE to hear it real time...after all you are going to be Following the Music.... Its getting a head of steam this event is..... Lets go where the grown ups go !!

One of the FAQ's we sometimes get is Q Do you ever play any oldies ..or is it ALL obscure stuff ? A Well apart from any new releases that get played...theoretically they're ALL oldies..its just we've forgotten them or not heard them ..no big deal

Feedback from all quarters .....our pre planned January 'winter break' has fired up the anticipation levels .. Very .heartwarming to hear such positive vibes from renowned enthusiasts..who totally 'get' our aim and focus for this event Moving forward...2023 promises to host some real 'headliner' events down here at FTMNTC HQ *******Following the Music Not the Crowd ****** ...Its time to focus on the music and let the attendance take care of itself Nothing more .nothing less

Don't forget you won't be burdened with an Oldies playlists ,a rare and expensive record focus.....we aim to play as wide a range as possible....ask the regulars....no dwelling on the past as though its a cult...we up and at em !!! .....open the windows there's a breath a fresh air coming in...and it sounds glorious !!

Enthusiasts amongst you... will have noticed that over time ...we focus on DJ's that bring something a little different to the table..... even though they may not be famous names and venue filling DJ's...but we KNOW they'll do us a 'a job'------ not just 'a job' for us BUT importantly for the enthusiasts that attend !!!!

Flying the flag.. for the enthusiasts.... We're not much on 'post match' playlists here.........much preferring the old adage where we.... COME AND EXPERIENCE THE SOUNDS IN THE 'HERE AND NOW'.... !! ...just like we used to... Taking you back to those halycon days when music was KING and not who played it !!!

Looking forward to welcoming Martyn ..first time behind the FTMNTC decks.....also Geese makes a welcome return

Those enthusiasts who attend regularly will know...these nights result in a fabulous near 6hrs of diverse music blended together to send you home with a smile ...hopefully

Us chaps had a spiffing time on Saturday at Brookfields...excitement building from the get go even as we approached 'down that drive' gosh how many times did we do that in the past Friendly greetings as is the norm from Pep and Ryan ...then whoosh !!!.....open those doors and the heat blasts you.... !!! FANTASTIC Musically pitched just right ..a real mixture from the old school nighter sounds to the rarest of the rare....and then some !! Usual suspects in attendance ..always a pleasure to see..... and plenty of people I aint seen for ages... Well done Pep for resurrecting this great venue and putting on a damn good night out !!! Hopefully more to come !!

For any newcomers to this event...we are nestled just south of the massive conurbation of Gtr Manchester and just north of the West Midalnds ... Slap Bang in leafy South Cheshire !! 15/20 mins Junctions 17 northbound and 18 southbound of the M6

AS we welcome in 2023 and we look forward to some more of those FTMNTC nights that we've come to enjoy over the past few years....we just wanna confirm our entrance price REMAINS the same We're all aware of the rising prices with energy increases and the cost of living..it goes without saying events big or small aren't immune to these rises. Other events may have to increase the entrance fees to cope We at FTMNTC believe our entrance fee is FAIR and is gonna stay FAIR Don't forget ... It aint about bums on seats for us It aint about packing the venue for us It IS about enjoying a wide variety of quality sounds in the company of fellow enthusiasts in a venue with relaxed vibe ...enjoying an evening out doesn;t have to be that difficult !! We;re fortunate in that our success criteria is measured purely on the quality and range of music we hear.... Its OUR night out as well...and if it was 'poo' we wouldn't go lol

In addition to a guaranteed quality and diverse selection of sounds provided by this months guests The Resident DJ's Paul Dale John Gallagher Dave Cartilage Jez Jones Kev John Whilst these 'lads' aren't out every weekend DJing ...you can rest assured they will dig deep and bring you some interesting and adventurous playlists....rather than the same old predictable records that have a tendency to be played by so many... If you're an inquisitive 'soul' come and join us and see/hear what gets played

First one of 2023

5 star rating without question..... Myself and my travelling companions Geese and Kev John had an epic time...ticked all the boxes for what a quality allnighter should be in 2023 A discerning crowd gave this an atmosphere that would be hard to beat anywhere Its venues like this where 'our records' sound their best....a quality 20k in house sound system that is prime for nighter sounds...it really is !!!! Well done Pep...the bar is set high now...and the crowds love it !!!

Here's a map.......probably easier to follow than directions https://www.keele.ac.uk/about/howtofindus/maps/keele-campus-map-.pdf

There has been quite a momentum built up over 2022 For our final event of the year..... we welcomed Tim Ashibendi for another and MOST WELCOME outing here in South Cheshire ... we are guaranteed some tasty tracks !! we are guaranteed some interesting backstories to some of these tracks we are guaranteed quality and diverse selections from Tim And boy did we get that...and then some !!!!!!!!!!! Indeed Tim embodies all what we try to achieve here and is an ardent supporter I'v said this before and again I'll reinforce this fact ...we have DJ's on for a reason..and thats to enhance the musical quality of the evening What to expect ? ...well dunno..thats the attraction !!! You CAN expect a wide range of tunes wide array broad array large variety wide assortment wide selection etc etc etc and on and on............. AS we move into 2023..we will continue to work with the club and enthusiasts alike to give you ALL the experience you deserve when you visit us You'll have heard me bang on about this before BUT it really is the 'raison d'etre' behind what we do ..its REAL friendly here ...no masonic type handshakes, no fashion shows. no stories of the Golden Casino , no awkward cliques . WE look forward to welcoming both old and new 'enthusiasts' to our events going forward We don't take ourselves too seriously here...it aint a competition...its just a night out , and hopefully during the night...offering you something a little different and stimulate a little curiosity in the music we all love Have a great Xmas and we wish you all the best for the new year ...look after yourselves and each other ...and we'll see you in 2023 xxx

For all those attending tonight ...this is what to expect for your evening delectations....some very pleasant record selectors who aim to please 7—7.45…………………. Paul 7.45-- 8.15 ……………….Kev 8.15—8.45………………. Jez 8.45—9.15……………… Dave 9.15—10.30……………. Tim 10.30—11.00 ………….. Paul 11.00—11.30……………Kev 11.30—12.00 ………….. Jez 12.00—12.30…………….Dave 12.30—end…………….Residents

DJ's blending the expensive with the not so expensive...and dare we say..cheap !!...NO FEAR We should remember how GOOD it is before we remember how CHEAP it is. Otherwise we'll fall into the trap of spending hundreds of pounds on records that are designed to impress other collectors, rather than continuing to do the thing that brought us onto the scene in the first place -buying great soul dance records. Guest DJ Tim Ashibende a master of the art

Definitely one for the enthusiasts.....no massive crowds to worry about....just quality music
