In 1993 Coalesce was born. Initially an underground party for 250 like minded party goers, it featured dazzling décor and quality DJs playing “proper” music free from the watered-down, chart-targeted nonsense that often passed for House music in clubs. Coalesce also revived that special feeling of exclusivity. Not everyone could come. You had to find it first! This explained the lack of any “attitude” at Coalesce, indeed more often than not; the atmosphere exuded was that of a huge extended family meeting up for an uninhibited knees-up! In fact it would be difficult to pigeon hole the Coalesce crowd. Young professionals rub shoulders with artists and musicians. Doctors and lawyers chat with engineers and builders at the bar. What you do doesn’t seem to be important. It’s what you are that matters. As a result the pervading ambience is of relaxed friendliness.
Throughout the mid and late nineties Coalesce threw spectacular parties in warehouses and film studios for 1000+ people at a time. Mixmag named them as “The Undisputed Kings of the Underground” and national newspapers began to “namedrop” Coalesce when celebrities started showing up at some of their events. Coalesce, however, stuck to their task of delivering cutting edge dance music from the cream of the underground.
Despite being labelled an underground collective, Coalesce made regular forays into the club market with residencies at the now legendary Club UK, Tribal Gathering/The Universe as well as long stints at Crash club, Club Innocence and The Glasshouse in London, and their biggest party to date, Sensory Circus, was a licensed event for 2000 people at London’s Royal Victoria Docks incorporating three arenas, live bands, 3D projections and funfair rides. Coalesce have also worked extensively abroad – The Matrix Club, Tresor & The Bunker in Berlin, Love Parade in Berlin, Nature One and MayDay in Germany, The Civic in New Zealand, The Melkweg and Paradiso in Amsterdam, The Cave Club in Austria, The Rex Club in Paris, Es Paradis in Ibiza and the Fundiscao in Rio de Janerio, The Manga Rosa & The Jazzy in Sao Paulo - Brazil - to name a few. Our DJ's have also played in these well known clubs and in a lot more countries and underground parties all over the world. Too many to mention! We have also been featured with a double page spread in ID, The Face Magazine, Wax Magazine, The Evening Standard, INewspaper, The Mirror and XLRT in America.
