Founded by the late Andrew Weatherall and Sean Johnston – friends, acid house veterans and fearless sonic adventurers – A Love From Outer Space (ALFOS) was, initially, the result of a shared love of slower paced sounds. Incorporating a diverse and hard to classify array of musical selections from dub to italo, Balearic to synthwave, ALFOS was thus hatched with a broad – but firm – remit: never knowingly exceed 122 BPM. Other than that, it was all gates open; all points west.Sadly in 2020 Andrew Weatherall passed away suddenly, leaving a void of musical greatness. The current incarnation of ALFOS sees Sean Johnston continue to nurture Weatherall’s memory and carry the torch all over the UK and on to Europe.
During lockdown, Sean brought the spirit of A Love From Outer Space online to Twitch in the form of the ALFOS Emergency Broadcast System. A transcendental cosmic disco in virtual space, ALFOS EBS provided a lifeline for cadets marooned alone across Ireland, UK, planet Earth, and beyond the stars.
And thus, the end of lockdown brought a whole new energy and renewed togetherness to the ALFOS parties, heralding regular missions to old established and newer ALFOS chapters alike, from metropolitan centres to further flung enclaves, including stalwart underground venues such as the Berkeley Suite (Glasgow), Phonox (London), and the legendary Golden Lion (Todmorden).
10th of November 2023 will mark the tenth anniversary since the previous Dublin ALFOS in Twisted Pepper. This very special night presents Brother Sean taking the decks and steering the ship all night long, for an epic 5 hour set – the full A Love From Outer Space experience. We highly recommend buying tickets in advance as these unique nights always sell out.
PWP are thrilled and honoured to have this legendary guest as its first production.
