Mr. Ties
For May’s instalment of Bakk-Heia we are extremely excited to be welcoming Francesco de Nittis, AKA Mr. Ties to play for a whopping 6 hours in our beloved s(w)hite hotel.
Francesco is a DJ that in all respects defies categorisation. Born in Giovinazzo, Italy, Franca made his first forays into music through sound engineering work and a job at a record pressing plant. Captivated as a teenager by the unifying quality of music, Francesco began seeking out records, he did this without prejudice, viewing music as either good or bad. This ideology which has certainly informed Ties’ sound ; during Franca’s sets it would not be uncommon to hear dreamy Italian pop records sitting neatly next to mind melting industrial, or obscure library records sandwiched between NYC house kick drums. These contrasting sounds becoming indistinguishable when married by Franca’s passionate delivery.
In order to convey his emotions, Ties often uses 3 turntables, with diva acapella’s floating above techno records played on 33rpm, tempos sliding around with absolutely reckless abandon for 'the rules’ of contemporary DJing. It is this style which has gained Ties an almost cult status, in part due to his role at Homopatik, a queer institution at ://aboutblank in Berlin, which Ties founded with Danilo Rosato.
Mr. Ties represents what the essence of DJing, at its most vital can be; a fluid exchange of hedonistic emotion and passion within group of people, blurring the lines of separation in gender, sexuality, race and age.

Sofie K (NTS)
London born, Manchester based Sofia is currently enjoying a well deserved rise to Manchester's top tier of djs. Her style encompasses cosmic (and thoroughly fucked) disco, unsettling Italo, forgotten and totally danceable cold wave & post punk with the odd Missy Elliot banger thrown in the mix. A regular at Cheetham Hill’s Partisan (where we were totally blown watching her see in the New Year) & NTS resident, we can’t quite believe she’s never played at THW before? Really keen to see what she has in store for us in night as she helps us warm up for Mr. Ties.
