Residentclubber.co.uk presents Casa Discoteca: Saturday June 22 2024 at St Patrick's Irish Club, Leamington Spa

Residentclubber.co.uk's 'Casa Discoteca' pop up event is back for a night of good tunes and good vibes in the Upstairs Room at the St Patrick's Irish Club in Leamington Spa on Saturday June 22 2024.

Fresh from a successful pop up night at the Bishops' Tachbrook Sports & Social Club on May 11 (you can listen to the whole DJ set from the night on Mixcloud and Soundcloud), and with a brand new Casa Discoteca sound-system set up on the night, expect another night of the best in upfront house music and club classics with a DJ set from Andy B, and kicking things off, an exclusive piano and synth musical showcase from Justin C!

As always, it all comes down to this; No attitude, just damn fine tunes! A place full of good vibes where the music comes first and everything else follows second. Simple things. But they make all the difference!

The week ends, life begins, and the fun starts at 8pm, entry is free, so come on down and party!

A fun night at my Casa Discoteca DJ gig on Saturday night!

Had a top night DJing at my 'Casa Discoteca' pop up night at the Bishops Tachbrook Sports & Social Club on Saturday night! Brought a bit of the Ibiza vibe with the tunes I was playing and it looked like they were going down a treat as well, mostly anthems from days gone by!

I also recorded the set, which I'll be putting up on my Mixcloud, Soundcloud and Youtube channels this weekend.

Cheers for getting me in. Looking forward to the next DJ gig (wherever and whenever that'll be) already!

Residentclubber.co.uk presents Casa Discoteca: Saturday March 2 2024 at St Patrick's Irish Club, Leamington Spa


Residentclubber.co.uk is back in town with a brand new pop up event, 'Casa Discoteca' in the upstairs room at the St Patrick's Irish Club in Leamington Spa on Saturday March 2 2024.

Originally born from a desire to contribute something different to the local nightlife, the Residentclubber.co.uk nights took off and ran from 2002-2007, with Andy B and a handful of excellent resident DJ's behind the decks warming up to the many top quality guest DJ's we were getting in from Birmingham and around the country.

Now back after decade long hiatus with a new pop up event, the first since 2011, expect a night of the best in upfront house music and a sprinkling of dance classics too with Residentclubber.co.uk founder Andy B behind the decks and a special electronica showcase from Justin C, who will be showcasing a few of his tunes!

It all comes down to this; No attitude, just damn fine tunes! A place full of good vibes where the music comes first and everything else follows second. Simple things. But they make all the difference!

The week ends, life begins, and with FREE ENTRY, the fun starts at 8pm, so come on down and party!

Photos: Cafe Mambo at Warwick Castle: Saturday May 13 2023

A few photos from the awesome Cafe Mambo at Warwick Castle outdoor event on Saturday May 13 2023. Not too many, as I was rather enjoying things a bit! 😁

Top DJs spinning some top tunes all day. Was great to bump into a few familiar faces throughout the day too.

Favourite set of the day for me was the Lovely Laura & Ben Santiago. They really got the crowd going and loved the music they were playing!

Really enjoyed the day and hope that they come back again!

Photo Flashback: Residentclubber Nights (2002-2008) - The DJ's

Back in the olden days, from 2002 until around 2008, I organised dance music nights in bars and clubs around Leamington Spa. 

Inspired after a trip to the superclub Godskitchen in Birmingham a year or so before, and disappointed there not being anything of its like, both musically or of a similar vibe more locally, I had a plan. Why not do something about it!

After clubbing in Birmingham for a couple of years, I had garnered a few DJ contacts in the clubs and across various clubbing messageboard forums and had plenty of takers for DJ's when I put the word out looking for DJ's to play.

The first Residentclubber Night, 'Trancefusion', launched at Pacific Rim (now the back room at House) in Leamington Spa in December 2002; a dance music night of trance and hard dance! It only lasted until July 2003, but the quality of mostly up and coming DJ's spinning on the decks was pretty high.

Over the next few years, the sound of the nights evolved from the harder dance music of melodic trance and techno, to a more funky house sound, which lead to more events in several bars around Leamington Spa, before culminating in a residency night in the top floor VIP room at the club Evolve (now Neon), which proved very popular!

The events were great fun to put on, some great nights, music and memories. I had learned a lot in putting the nights on and made some new friends and contacts along the way as well.

Here's a look back at some of the fabulous DJ's (and me) that graced the decks at the various Residentclubber Nights events over the years!
