On Saturday 6th September Manchesters longest running clubnight Tangled closed its doors after 21 years of providing the clubbers of Manchester with a hedonistic soundtrack to rave to on a regular basis.

This mix is a taster of what was played on the night and a taster of what the 21 years sounded like. Classic breaks, classic sounds… the sound of an era!

Just turn that shit up!
