"The Makin’ Moves boys are back for their final event of 2023, joining them will be Abel celebrating his recent “Cosmic Law” album release on Atjazz Records’ Co. for a night of Deep Soulful House.

Matt & Jamesey have probably had their busiest year since the pandemic, culminating with their feature in the summer edition of Faith Magazine and this month celebrating their 200th label release. If you haven’t been to one of their events think, smiling people, quality soulful music with dancers getting down.. Everyone is welcome in our house!

The boys will be joined on the night by Abel aka Steve Butler who will be making the trip down from the north east. From catching the house bug in the late 80s as a devout collector, his DJ career went from strength to strength. It saw him perform across some of the UK’s most prestigious nights including the Southport Weekender, not to mention internationally.

Matt and Jamesey have had a really busy summer playing at gigs all around town and joining them for this special event will be DJ Amir from New York for an exclusive London date!!

Residing in Berlin, via Boston and Brooklyn, DJ Amir has been immersed in the world of music for three decades. In 2011, Amir launched his own 180-Proof, an acclaimed label which owns the music rights to Detroit’s Strata Records. This has seen him continue to partner with BBE to release reworks and remixes of Strata’s stunning catalogue.

Whether through his extensive work in A&R, in the clubs or on the radio with his monthly show on Worldwide FM, DJ Amir is revered by his peers and a true student of music, educating others everywhere he goes. 

From his wildly successful NYC party ‘I Love Vinyl’ which ran for 9 years to Gilles Peterson’s Worldwide festival to opening for Q-Tip and to the finest clubs and unique locations, DJ Amir has graced the decks across the globe and we look forward to welcoming him to Makin Moves on 11th August!
