ABOUT THE NIGHT
THE CALM TAKEOVER.
A DIFFERENT FRIDAY AT STEINS.
If you're looking for a house music event in Derby on Friday 27 November, this one's for you. CALM Promotions is taking over STEINS for a one-off DJ night, with 4+ DJs moving between house-led sets, R&B and dancefloor classics from 10pm through to 4am.
Rather than a huge warehouse crowd, the party takes place inside STEINS: an intimate venue known for big two-pint beer steins, cocktails and dancing on the benches. Expect a different feel from its usual Friday programming, with more DJs and a house-led soundtrack.
Whether you're out for the house anthems, coming for the R&B, or getting a group together for a Friday in Derby, you can walk in for free. If you'd rather have somewhere for your group to meet, tables can be reserved separately.
THE SOUNDTRACK
HOUSE MUSIC, R&B & DANCE CLASSICS
The CALM TAKEOVER line-up is built around a mix of house sounds and club favourites, not one narrow subgenre. Here's the sort of music to expect across the night.
01
Vocal house
Big vocals, feel-good energy and the kind of house records made for a full dancefloor.
02
Commercial house & club remixes
Familiar favourites with a house twist, mixed in with current club sounds.
03
Dance & club classics
The records that have stayed in rotation for years — from Ibiza favourites to proper dancefloor anthems.
04
R&B
A change of pace without losing the party: recognisable R&B alongside the house-led sets.
THE VENUE
23 WARDWICK.
DERBY CITY CENTRE.
CALM TAKEOVER takes place inside STEINS, the Derby bar known for its big two-pint steins, cocktails and Friday nights. It's an intimate party setting rather than an enormous arena: DJs, drinks and the crowd all together in one venue.
