Saturday 21st marks the second instalment of Elliott Stallion’s monthly residency.

A trusted deep digger of beautiful electronic music, Elliott has a knack for melting hearts and locking rooms. Dead Centre resident and founder of Tart Deco, he’s been quietly building bridges between the local scene and wider underground communities — flying the DC flag along the way.

You may have caught him at Gottwood, Shambala or holding it down at Dead Centre over the past year. Expect warm, engaging four-to-the-floor sounds, rare cuts, white-label vinyl and curveballs you won’t hear twice — with a few secret guest appearances likely along the way.

Free entry all

OUR GROOVE was born from the natural chemistry between Lucky Roon and G Batez — two selectors who realised their strongest moments happened side by side.

United by a shared obsession with house music in all its forms, their sets move fluidly from deep, soulful and vocal grooves through funky nu-disco and jackin’ house, before pushing into raw garage and underground territory when the room’s ready.

After three years of cutting their teeth in bars and events, OUR GROOVE brings focused, feel-good energy built specifically for the dancefloor — no filler, no forced moments.

Free entry all night.

“Art is how we decorate space.
Music is how we decorate time.”

Friday the 13th welcomes the return of Archer — and there’s no bad luck here.

A house and disco enthusiast rooted in warmth, grace and feel, Archer brings thoughtful selections drawn from what he proudly calls God’s Country and beyond. His approach is humble, deeply informed and guided by intuition rather than ego — music chosen because it works, not because it shouts.

A Caergwrle Disco Club regular and Lovedrop resident, Archer made his Dead Centre debut last year — and it left a mark. North Wales based, with strong ties to the Shire, this one’s about good people, good energy and proper records.

Free entry all night.

Lovedrop Festival co-founder and Middle of the Room / Dead Centre regular Mister Snakes returns — arms wide, energy high.

Expect an eclectic, feel-good collision of warm party throbbers, underground curveballs and hands-in-the-air moments that capture the unmistakable Lovedrop spirit. This is joyful, DIY party energy with depth — the sound of friends building something special and sharing it properly.

Lovedrop is a close-knit crew coming together each July in a secret location, and this set brings that same emotional release straight to the Blind Tiger dancefloor.

Blind Tiger welcomes Mon Discotheque — a true selector with a deep respect for the craft.

Rotary mixer enthusiast and dedicated wax collector Gary Tichopad digs deep for rare disco cuts, house gems and funky 7-inch specials, delivered with patience, restraint and serious musical knowledge. Humble and understated in approach, his sets are about feel, flow and authenticity rather than shortcuts.

Versatile and eclectic, Gary’s selections move effortlessly between eras and moods, built record by record for people who actually care about what’s coming out of the speakers.

A Shropshire-based selector done properly — we’re very glad to have him behind the decks.

Free entry all night.

Dead Centre returns with residents Innerkey and Drewy at the controls. Familiar pressure resumes — playful, no-rules selections moving freely across house, techno, broken beat, and wider electronic territory. Free entry all night.

The emphasis remains firmly on the local dancefloor: shared energy, open minds, and a community that continues to show up and care. Nothing here is fixed. Each month shifts subtly, responding to the room, the moment, and the collective mood.

While the DJs meet in the middle, the heart of Dead Centre has always been the people — wall to wall — who shape the party into what it becomes. As the series evolves through the year, expect a small number of carefully chosen underground guests to pass through, quietly surprising a sleepy town in the heart of Shropshire.

That said, the soul of Dead Centre remains rooted in the local scene: investing in community, creating space, opening doors, and giving back wherever possible.

If you align with the ethos, we want to hear from you.
Mixes, introductions, and conversations are always welcome.

A Friday night DJ session with Cat Ellis, Dead Centre–affiliated resident and one of the scene’s quietly emerging selectors. Free entry all night.

Cat’s relationship with dance music was shaped on the dancefloor long before stepping behind the decks. Now based in rural Wales, she’s spent years deeply immersed in underground culture, developing a sound guided by knowledge, care, and long-term commitment. Her journey stretches from House of God to intimate, non-commercial Ibiza villa parties and beyond.

Her selections move fluidly through disco, soul, house, techno, and funk - favouring warm grooves, subtle shifts in energy, and a playful touch that keeps the room engaged. Bright, bubbly, and quietly uplifting, without ever losing its underground grounding.

This marks the start of Cat’s monthly residency - every third Friday of the month - representing the wider Dead Centre ecosystem with feel-good, endorphin-boosting sounds and plenty more to come.

A Saturday night of back-to-back DJ sets with Elliott Stallion, joined by Joe McCran and Fred Ackyroyd at Blind Tiger. Free entry all night.

A familiar presence in the local underground, Elliott has appeared at respected festivals and spaces including Gottwood, Shambala Festival, Beatherder, and Boomtown Fair, building connections between the local scene and wider underground communities.

A laid-back Friday night session with DDope, co-founder of Love Drop. Expect a warm, feel-good blend moving through disco, funk, chuggy house, and time-tested classics — records picked for mood, movement, and flow rather than peak-time pressure. Free entry all night.

Dead Centre returns for 2026 with an all-night-long set from its founder, Innerkey. One DJ. One room. Full control from open to close. Free entry all night.

A familiar presence in the local underground, Innerkey has quietly built a reputation as a producer and selector with a wide but carefully considered reach. For this Valentine’s special, he takes the room on a five-hour journey - moving through deep, dubby, and slightly off-kilter electronic sounds, swung rhythms, rare grooves, and lesser-heard cuts pulled from across the spectrum.

The focus is on flow rather than flash. Records are chosen for their feeling and function, progressing patiently from warm, low-slung textures into more playful, rhythmic territory as the night unfolds. With the past six months spent largely in the studio, the set will also feature first-time plays, offering an early glimpse into where things are heading next.

This night marks the start of a new chapter for Dead Centre - a monthly series rooted in the local scene and the wider dance music ecosystem, with an emphasis on longevity, community, and sound over hype.

All night long. No shortcuts. Just music that moves.

A vinyl-only night of deep house and techno with Reg, founder of Shrewsbury’s underground collective Natural Selections. No laptops, no shortcuts — just records, grooves, and a proper dancefloor journey. Free entry all night.

With over 30 years behind the decks, Reg is a selector rooted in digging, patience, and reading the room. His all-vinyl sets move through warm, hypnotic house and deeper shades of techno, built to evolve naturally over the course of the night — focused on flow, tension, and atmosphere.

Through Natural Selections, Reg has spent more than a decade shaping Shrewsbury’s underground scene, hosting intimate parties and bringing forward-thinking electronic music to local dancefloors. Beyond the town, his journey has seen him play at respected underground institutions including Freerotation, House of God, Ymuno, and Love Drop.

Expect a night done properly — built record by record, from the first needle drop to the last.
