Legendary promoter and Sankey’s club owner David Vincent has announced that he’s bringing back the acid house & balearic beat era with his new Wednesday party in Sankeys, Dance 88/89. Dance 88/89′ will start on the IMS Launch Date of May 25th and will run across the summer with 19 parties until September 28th with performances from most of the biggest original pioneers of the time including Mystery Jets, Riton, Mike Skinner, Redlight, Jacob Banks, Klose One, Applebottom, Saytek (Live), Samu.L, Barely Legal andCurtis Gabriel. Dance 88/89′ at Sankey’s Ibiza will feature residents Matthew Benjamin AKA Bushwacka and DJ Alfredo, two Godfathers of the house music revolution. Bushwacka, formerly of tech house titans and UK dance pioneers Layo & Bushwacka, was there at the start of rave and acid house culture in the UK so knows exactly how to rekindle that spirit for a modern audience and is destined to excel himself. Ibiza icon Alfredo is one of the most highly respected DJs within the scene credited as the original pioneer of the Balearic sound and the Ibiza movement. David Vincent, owner of Sankeys said, “Dance 88/89 is my own personal artistic project which celebrates the original music culture of classic underground Acid House, in an authentic environment. It’s aim is to put the fun back into dance music. “I want to thank the Universe for allowing me to be able to tell the story of the beginning of dance music in such a magical way. This party is a celebration of the return of the true legendary music and is done with a lot of love from my part.” There is already a euphoric buzz going through the dance world about these parties. This highly anticipated series of events are expected to sell out fast.
