As the summer rolls on with all the traditional wet and windy weather the UK has to offer us at least Plug keeps things hot and steamy indoors with another sizzling guest DJ. This week it's the turn of the Circus head honcho himself YOUSEF.

 

He's been promoting and Djing at his own night ‘Circus' in Liverpool since 2002 so knows a thing or two about what makes a night successful and what makes a dancefloor tick. Having carved out a unique sound blending jackin chicago, tech, vocal and down right filthy house together he's been gathering fans across the globe with blazing sets at places as varied as Bodytonic in Dublin, Basics in Leeds, Baby Face in Guangzhou, Clubland in Buenos Aires, Space and Pacha Ibiza and The Arches in Glasgow.

 

He's also known for his wicked productions, having set up his own label Carioca to release club bangers as The Drum Bums (with Steve Mac) and 10,000 BC (with Paul Woolford) and some equally as hot remixes including, amongst many many others, Fatboy Slim's "The Joker" and Jamiroquai's "Electric Mistress"

 

His summer is another busy one (probably involving a lot more sunshine than us) so expect plenty of fresh house music roadtested around the world to be dropped on Sheffield. Hot stuff.

 

Playing before and after Yousef will be the Plug DJ Resident All-Star Tag Team GEOFF TICEHURST and LJ FREEMAN. Geoff sets the night up with a blend of the finest choice house cuts and LJ rounds it all off with a late night mix of storming tech house. We love them, you should too.

 

In the main room, Dave Henning delivers an unrivalled mix of dance anthems and floorfillers.

 

Dave is one of Sheffield’s best known and loved DJ’s, and for the last 10 years has consistently worked in the most prestigious clubs in the UK. As well as the club stuff, he has worked for several of the North’s biggest radio stations, including Sheffield’s very own Hallam FM.

 

Saturday nights are all about hearing the new tunes you love, and the ones that take you back to moments you thought you’d forgotten…..

 

From the ‘hands in the air’ of Faithless and Darude, to the anthemic sound of David Guetta and Kelly Rowland, and the banging beats of Dizzee Rascal and the Black Eyed Peas, one thing is guaranteed… you’ll know and love every tune you hear.
