💥 PRE PARTY 💥
We’ve always kicked off our legendary OTR events with a pre party (I’m sure many of you will remember the legendary Howard pre parties) and we weren’t in the mood to break with tradition this time around! So we’re delighted to announce that we’ve joined forces with our friends at Blueprint UK to deliver you an OTR reunion pre party of epic proportions! With a lineup of incredibly exciting talent, at the perfect pre party venue, The Viper Rooms Sheffield.
Let’s meet the DJ’s…
💥 PULSAR 💥
Headlining the show we’re absolutely delighted to welcome the young sensation Pulsar, for what will be his debut for both OTR and Blueprint.
Since his debut club performance for Wax Format back in April 2022, Jay (Pulsar) has gone on to play for numerous big brands up and down the UK. Jay’s as comfortable on vinyl as he is on digital and plays a wide variety of styles including Hard House, Techno and Trance. Back in March this year Jay won the Tidy DJ competition, the prize bring a set at the huge Tidyland weekender, where he delivered a showstopping set to a packed out room; no mean feat at the age of 11! Jay will be bringing his infectious energy, impeccable mixing and next level tune selection to the OTR pre party where he will be playing us a hard trance set to remember. You don’t want to miss this!
💥 GIO 💥
We’re delighted to welcome GIO back behind the OTR decks after his sensational set for us down at Anomaly festival earlier this year, he had the Mr Trippy ice cream van absolutely rocking! Passion resident GIO is renowned for his technical ability and energy behind the decks and is sure to get you all stomping and warmed up for our reunion. We can’t wait to see what he’s got in store for us on the 26th!
💥 SWAP 💥
Next up we welcome the man, the myth, the legend that is SWAP, fresh off the back of his phenomenal set for OTR down at the Emporium back in October. SWAP has played for some of the biggest UK brands there is: Godskitchen, Goodgreef, Digital Society, Passion, Gatecrasher & Trancecoda to name a few and we can’t wait to have him back behind the OTR decks for this one. Expect classics, hands in the air moments and a boat load of fun.
💥 RICKY DENTON 💥
Up next we welcome Blueprint resident and head honcho Ricky Denton. The Blueprint regulars amongst us will testify for Ricky’s abilities behind the decks. Ricky will be delivering us a slice of his trademark melodic/uplifting style, driving basslines and hands in the air melodies. Roll on January 26th, you’re all in for a treat.
💥 DAVE GURNHILL 💥
Completing the lineup is Dave Gurnhill, it’s a pleasure to welcome Dave back behind the OTR decks. Over recent years Dave has made a transition into the more progressive sounds playing for brands such as Delve Deeper, Another Life and Secluded events. Dave will be opening proceedings with some of the finest progressive house there is around, kicking off what is sure to be a night to remember for a long time to come!
So what are you waiting for? If you’re still on the fence then get involved! The main show at FEZ club is on course to sell out and this is one hell of a pre party to get you warmed up. See you on the 26th January!
