Ministry of Sound Club releases its first Saturday Sessions Compilation OUT NOW.

Monday 14th May sees the release of the new Saturday Sessions compilation from Ministry of Sound Club. This is the first album to be put together by the club team representing the sound of every Saturday night, with two discs featuring the tracks that are currently played from the world’s favourite DJs in the  ‘Box’ and the ‘103’.

For the past decade Saturday Sessions has been the innovative brand that has cemented Saturday nights with residencies such as Toolroom Knights, Benny Benassi & friends, Release Yourself as well as bringing many other international artists. CD 1 focuses on the ‘Box’ with progressive and tech house tracks that are regularly played by the clubs favourite acts. Summing up the sound of the main room the first disc includes tracks from Chuckie, Swedish House Mafia, Wolfgang Gartner plus a load more. This is the perfect warm up for your night out!

CD2 showcases a collection of deep house, the forward thinking sound that has become a popular and reinvented genre over the past year. This is a reflection of the ‘103’ which has been on a journey over the last couple of years, discovering its own sound which has developed and brought the room into its own. Featuring Jamie Jones, Joris Voorn and many more this second disk is the contrast of sound that rounds up every Saturday night and is a good soundtrack to your Sunday morning sessions.

Release Yourself returns with a 5 hour set from Roger Sanchez and Support from Baggi Begovic.

Back in February Roger Sanchez presented you all with a Stealth takeover, this time around on Saturday 19th May he will be returning with Release Yourself. In the past we have had guests from across the board and with Roger constantly being at the forefront of the house music scene the nights have always been a huge success. This time around Roger reverts back to a longer set with him playing 5 hours supported by Baggi Begovic in the Box.

Rotterdam based dj/producer Baggi Begovic has been causing a storm on the scene since 2010 when he first partnered up with Rene Amesz on a rework of Nirvana’s ‘Smells Like Teen spirit’ that reached number one on Beatport’s Progressive Chart. Whilst this track was smashing up dance floors worldwide, Baggi was breaking the Guinness Book of World Records as KLM transformed one of their airlines into a party zone taking passengers to Miami’s WMC whilst Baggi provided the soundtrack to the flight. Now focused on his releases and productions, Baggi has worked with Roger Sanchez, Funkerman as well as putting out tracks on Defected, Spinnin records and Stealth. From Mysterylands, Creamfields plus gigs all over the world, Baggi makes his debut in the Box playing a 2 hour set kicking off for Sanchez and the Release Yourself night.

Prok & Fitch have become one of our favourite acts at the club. Always guaranteed to keep the crowd on their toes, they know exactly how to party in more ways than one. Easily two of the nicest people in dance music, their flare for productions is one that is very refreshing and they always manage to surprise us with something a little bit different every time. Playing in the 103 alongside Benny Royal and resident Sheldon, there is no where better to be on this Saturday night than Ministry of Sound.

Check out the video below of the last time that Roger was in town...

The New York Times may have called him the “new face of electronic dance music” in a recent profile, but Ryan Raddon, known as Kaskade, has been in the trenches of the EDM scene as an original recording artist and in-demand DJ for more than a decade. He has released seven studio albums, including his latest, Fire & Ice, scored nine Top 10 hits on Billboard’s Hot Dance Airplay Chart, created chart-topping remixes for everyone from Lady Gaga to Beyoncé, appeared at all the major summer festivals, and has performed between 150 and 200 headlining shows a year for the last 10 years, building a name for himself as an innovator of the EDM scene as we know it today, which has opened doors for the likes of Deadmau5, Tiesto, Skrillex and more. In doing so, he has helped to lay the groundwork for a titanic musical and cultural shift: a post-rock EDM revolution that has captured the imagination of a new generation of music lovers across North America...

This year saw him appear at this year’s Coachella and will hit the road in June for his biggest headlining tour ever — 70-plus North American shows in just over three months. His own live show being a jaw-dropping spectacle that finds him performing in front of a massive LED screen that blares images synched with the music while strobe lights scan the crowd.
Kaskade’s belief in the transformative power of dance music to uplift thousands of people at once has had a significant effect on the U.S. scene. His ground-breaking double residency in Las Vegas at the Encore Beach Club (which had not even been built when he signed on) and Marquee has elevated the city’s status as a premiere club-going destination on par with London, Berlin, and Ibiza, is another testament to his influence.



And on Saturday 12th May we have the pleasure of having America’s No. 1 DJ back in the Box and after his unforgettable debut appearance last year, we are very excited to have him back
