RETRO - BACK TO THE FUTURE

Club legend Retro celebrates its 21st birthday this year and the brand is stronger than ever.

Hitting Ibiza and Mallorca from humble roots in Burnley, Retro has now come of age and has emerged as one of the top international names for a big night out. 

Retro has become a global brand - and this is down to clubbers loving what they do - creating one of the best nights of house music nostalgia.  The Retro name began in 1989 when DJ Icon PAUL TAYLOR started the bandwagon rolling.  Since then it has gathered pace and more recently it has shown itself to be a continually growing phenomenon which spans the generations.  Capturing a niche market, the Retro team of hand-picked world-class DJs play historic house music filling a void for thousands of clubbers.

As the founder, Paul Taylor started the Retro phenomenon as a final hour of playing his unique blend of music at Angels in his home town of Burnley.  Back then Angels was one of the most influential clubs in the region and by 1991 the Saturday Retro nights were so popular that the 1000 capacity club were forced to turn away a further 1000 desperate to get in on the act.  Despite other clubs featuring massive names such as Pete Tong, Sasha and Boy George, the Retro name became synonymous with a fantastic fun night, feeling the buzz and enjoying the atmosphere which was unique to Retro. Pulling in more crowds than the 'big boys' Retro venues spread throughout the UK - something they continue to do - as well as establishing themselves as a huge name in Holland, Ibiza and Mallorca over the past decade.

Remaining true to the brand, Retro pulls in thousands of clubbers each month in the UK and thousands more have been enjoying the music at their residencies in Ibiza and Mallorca.  Retro appeals to an international crowd of clubbers wanting this unique brand of old school music that has been re-styled to create a memorable night out charged with atmosphere.

The media has welcomed Retro with open arms and rightly so.  Whilst the brand has been going for 20 years it is still a breath of fresh air and its success is testament to the hard working Retro team who are eager to please.  They have created a winning formula - they love what they are doing and this is reflected in the music and the packed dance floors.

RETRO is an outfit built on experience but most of all, a passion for classic vintage house music and a cracking night out!
