CENTRAL Park in Brighton is the place to come and dance with friends this month for Live Music and the Euro’s taking over Valley Gardens, offering a range of free and ticketed events.
Glitterbox lands for its Brighton debut on Saturday June 15 and presents a world-class DJ lineup including Derrick Carter, Alan Dixon, Sophie Lloyd and The Shapeshifters for an uplifting all day session of house and disco in the sunshine.
We caught up with The Shapeshifters this week and asked Simon Marlin to talk us through a selection of Glitterbox inspired music which you can listen to below.
The Shapeshifters featuring Liisi LaFontaine - Beautiful Day - Glitterbox Recordings
Of course I’m gonna start off with this! A “moment” record for me and a record I wanted to catch the spirit of Defected Croatia & Ibiza…. And it’s out today!

Natasha turns it out on this blaze classic. Originally on west London slip n slide imprint this is a funk/soul masterclass.
Trinidad Deep - Moments of Sound - En Souled
