Party 55 (25.09.09) DJ setlists

This week was mad, bad and dangerous to know! An ambitious bill of three acts each performing a full live set, I’m proud to say we pulled it off and the result was something exceptional. Big thanks to MY PET SUSHI (above), WHAT EVERY WOMAN WANTS and LIGHTHOUSES for playing.
