This was a fantastic night. The venue has to be seen to be believed... a great clubbing space. The basement has a warehouse feel with great sound and lights. The club was packed, the music was excellent...cutting edge, driving tech-funk, house and breaks. I cant wait to goto Lowdown & Dirty again on Saturday 20th March with electro breakbeat heavyweights - SPLITLOOP, electro-house new kid - MISK. Both acts are from Ireland so its another excuse to celebrate St Paddys Day!!
