DJ Deliciuos and Till West will what they do best and cause a bit of mischief in the main room. Having packed out another Manchester club earlier in year, AREA51 are delighted to have these guys behind the decks. Every single release from his various projects - like DJ Delicious & Till West "Same man", Phunk-A-Delic presented by DJ Delicious, "Rockin" or the DJ Delicious solo releases "Let it drop" and "Jaja" - has "exploded" on the worldwide scene so powerfully that they almost completely dominated all the relevant dance charts. Indeed they were - and still are - featured in the playlists of almost every international big-name DJ.

This June will certainly get the summer started so get your dancing shoes on and come check it out!
