__tWaDdle_

From humble beginnings in a tiny basement of a Headingley Cafe with founders Brother Bull and Christan Maiden, tWaDdLe made a habit of presenting some of the most exciting up-and-coming acts in the underground... house and techno scene.

Audio Werner, Guillaume & the Coutu Dumonts, Wbeeza, Lauhaus, Tom Ellis, Leif, Martinez, Ekkohaus, Matt Tolfrey... these are just a few of the rising stars hand-picked by tWaDdLe and brought exclusively to Leeds, before presenting the one and only Dj Sneak for the first time in nearly half a decade.

While a range of highly established and little-known acts have appeared behind the decks, the night's truly unique party atmosphere has remained constant, making a lasting impression on all who stepped onto a tWaDdLe dance floor..

Tom Ellis

tWaDdLe resident, and the man behind the distinguishedTrimsound label, the top funk jammer goes from strength to strength with a string of inimitably funky releases on labels such as Floppy Funk, Minibar and Logistic

Brother Bull & Skipper

The original residents and promoters for Twaddle, these two have a habit of setting the benchmark for twaddle's guests. It could just be their superb selection of deep and techy Chicago-inspired house sounds, but there's also an inexplicable, almost sexual chemistry between the two that invariably results in an infectious party vibe.

Christian Maiden

Resident, founder and self-proclaimed 'twaddle master', Christian's classy style and blend of percussive house and techno music has led to a cult following as well as resdiencies at MindTheGap, Soapbox and most recently Technique - one of the biggest underground nights in the United Kingdom.

Matt Tolfrey

Leftroom records head honcho Matt is the man who really helped Twaddle take its first steps into the big league - he was the night's first guest DJ in February 07 and enjoyed himself so much that he signed up for a residency.

Neil McDermott

The newest recruit to the resident roster, Neil has an approach way beyond his years.

Neil mixes deep house and stripped-back techno with shades of funk and is only ever a mix away from jacking it up Chicago style.
