Winter house

Winter house is coming to The Auctioneer on Saturday 12 December, a house music session that starts at 5:00pm. The whole night is built around house music with heavy basslines, and the organisers describe it as a way to warm up the winter months.

If you're not familiar with the sound, house music is defined by its steady 4/4 beat, and the "heavy bass" part means the low end will be doing most of the work. It's the kind of thing that's more about the groove and the dancefloor than a seated audience, so it's a night for moving rather than listening from the side. The early start time also means you're in and out while it's still light, rather than staying until the early hours.

The Auctioneer is in Hanley, right in the heart of Stoke-on-Trent, so it's easy to get to from across the city. The session runs on Saturday 12 December, starting at 5:00pm, and entry is £3.
