This mix by Steve Thorpe was recorded live at Lowdown UK in November 2017. Sadly it was the last ever Lowdown at Sound Control before the club got closed down in December to be knocked down and turned into student flats. Sad times. This was where Lowdown spent 6 great years. Bringing the best in breaks to Manchester in that time. Over 50 parties, winner of 4 awards, 1000’s of happy clubbers and millions lost brain cells later… it was time to say goodbye to Sound Control in true Lowdown style

For the third year running I headed to Stockport (UK) on our August bank holiday to the awesome, Moovin Festival. This cracking little festival is one that I highly recommend and to find out more about it, you can read a review I did of it in 2015 when you *Click Here*.

Before you do that though, get this mix from Steve Thorpe downloaded so as your reading is accompanied by a damn fine soundtrack. Steve closed the Boombox stage on Sunday night and as I’ve seen him DJ several times now, I knew something special was gonna go down and so did a lot of other people judging by how many turned up to see him play. With the tent over flowing with people who wanted to end the weekend on a real high, Steve stepped up and delivered a blinding set that was heavy with Breaks and a touch of Acid House and Techno to boot. All of us left wanting more but as is the way with life, all good things must come to an end, so we all wandered off back to our tents with big smiles on our faces safe in the knowledge we’d ended an amazing weekend the right way by dancing our socks off!
