Club Fusion

Since opening in September 1998, Fusion has established itself as one of the biggest club nights on a Saturday Night in Ireland. Based in the Waterloo Square area of Derry, the decks of Fusion have been graced by some of the biggest names in the world of Club Culture. Allister Whitehead, Phat Phil Cooper from Cream, Andy Nalin of Nalin and Kane (Beachball) and recently the internationally renowned Roger Sanchez have all played at Fusion.



Fusion is also the first club in the North West of Ireland to open until 4am, a true life saver for those who love to move. No more of that depressing feeling of despair as you step into the cold at 1.30am!



LOCATION



If travelling from outside of Derry Fusion is easy to find. Just get yourself to the City Centre and look for the Guildhall. Stand at the city side of the Guildhall and look towards the city walls and Fusion is a 2 minute walk to your right across Guildhall Square and then Waterloo Place.

He was also selected to play at the 1999 BBM Northern Ireland Dance Music Awards and to cap the year off played with the biggest line-up of top Irish Dj's in one club in Dungannon.



Now back in Derry honing his studio skills in the Nerve Centre, he has already secured a post with R.G.B records recording studio in Belfast, home to the infamous Agnelli & Nelson. In March 2000 Micky persuaded the High On Life Crew to return to the Vibe (Derry) on St Patrick's Eve with Tall Paul for a stormer of a night. Micky then stayed with Vibe until the 31st of October (Halloween), when he played his last set there with Gatecrasher's Scott Bond and Matt Hardwick.



May 2000 saw the highlight of Micky's career playing for Gatecrasher at Planet Love alongside DJ Taucher, Matt Hardwick, Tall Paul, Judge Jules, Scott Bond, and Agnelli & Nelson to name a few.
