How does a local Manchester boy end up in Japan promoting one of Fukuoka’s coolest deep house/techno nights? And all while speaking only a little Japanese! Ask Andy; his night, PURE, at Kieth Flack every third Saturday of the month, is a roaring success, bringing together Fukuoka’s house/techno-heads and the English style of clubbing, with different music on different floors. Andy’s promoting career began in his hometown of Manchester, organizing a variety of nights at local, and nationally famous venues.
