It’s nearly 10 years since most of us were celebrating the weekend inside Sankeys Soap. The club had been previously closed closed down with rumours to never re-open and was eventually resurrected by two local promoters in the guise of Sacha Lord and David Vincent.

After a period of time Saturdays at the club were all about the Redlight having made it’s transition from Golden. The change in music policy brought in new residents and a different direction for the party. With that Manchester debuts were made, headlines created and favourites from the Bugged Out era made their welcome return.

The Redlight ran successfully for several years upon till the club underwent refurbishment in 2006. Again the club changed direction musically and it would have been almost impossible for the Redlight to return.

Several re-union type events were staged with missing original residents how ever they failed to capture the magic and atmosphere created at the beginning of the decade.

Several nights were recorded during 2001 and 2005 by myself or (Matthew) Krysko how ever none have ever really surfaced online till now. Here’s an introduction to some of the music that was played on a Saturday when the likes of G-Swing and Classic ruled and it was all about having the best time ever.

Enjoy.
