We all love family – our painful folks, cool cousins with rad record collections, shitty lil’ brothers, cheek-pinching Grandmas and weird Uncles who wear knee-high socks and touch us in special places; but when it comes to our favourite it’s our Purple Sneakers family who touches us in the most special of places!

This week, we’re welcoming back our buddies SVU, two lads from Lost Valentinos. We’re also super-duper-smashing-excited to be hosting the official after party for YACHT CLUB DJs show at Spectrum. The boys are Sneakers bros and will be heading down to cause their usual breed of chaos.

Opening the night will be the next instalment of our ‘Choose Your Own Playlist’ series, with our winner Mark showing us what he’s got in his record collection! Of course, no party is complete without awkward touching, so we’ll be touching our good friend SEABAS in all the right spots as he’s playing his birthday set, as well as Sneakers bretheren PhDJ, M.I.T, NICK FINDLAY and KILL THE LANDLORD.
