The club night that feels like the best kind of house party

That Amazing Thing! is a legendary & much loved Manchester micro party. In the early (heady) days of the naughties we occasionally hosted parties for 300 or 400 people (& mostly got them!). But we also found our favourite thing was a small room packed with around 150, so that's the party we've done since.

Playing house music, techno music, soul music on boats & hillsides, in fields & forests. Castles, houses, basements, pub back rooms, your front room.

Over time, as well as size, frequency has decreased. 3 or 4 parties a year in the “teenies” (has that been established as a term? is there one?) became only a couple a year & in 2023 we had only our Amazing! Castle party (some big life changes for our chief operator).

We're hoping for more soon: to host full force Manchester gathering(s?) again. What immediate plans (if any) we have are below (this new intro to our website is an attempt to future proof it a bit, unlike the previous update, which covered our slot at Bluedot 2023 until early 2024 😆).

Whatever we get up to, we hope to see you soon & big love - & missing you if you are one of our established, wonderful, crowd.

We have all sorts of ambitious (& so unlikely-to-happen) plans for 2025. It's our 25th birthday after all! Surely we can manage a proper Manchester party in July, the anniversary month? However the only thing that's got any kind of nebulous plan is a gathering at Eastern Bloc record shop, cafe & all round brilliant party spot in the Spring - date for this to be added soon!

Music from our mates:
A lot of words on our upcoming events, so let's go light here. Apart from to note that not only do we have loads of mates, we have loads that make music. So if we pick 2 or 3 things to share here they'll be worth a spin.

Waffle from us:
We're just getting used to our new “all on one page” website. Must mean it's time to screw that principle up. We want to post various little additional “articles”. Bloggy an'that like. The first is this from 2020, our best record of the parties we've done & DJs who played over 20 years. Others to come may be various musings posted to our Facebook group: we understand not everyone wants to participate in the services of what appears to be a sociopath android, so we'll keep a selection of what some have described as “waffles” accessible here.
We also have “
Videos of us
”. Such narcissism. Seriously, we were privileged to have the livestream for our 20th birthday party & as a fundraiser for Whalley Range's wonderful Carlton Club filmed by the also wonderful Imagine Arts. Check out better looking members of the crew on Imagine's YouTube channel
