   About AFICIONADO
Aficionado was created in June 1998 as the antidote to the extremities of Superclubbing which was prevalent at the time. After years of digging, listening and loving music of all forms, Moonboots and Jason gambled to create a Sunday scene in Manchester. Laughed at by many, Sundays became the new Saturday pretty soon after. Playing anything good outside of the four-four mainstream they set about creating a cerebral soundtrack for minds and feet with a Balearic edge. Referencing the multi tempo playlist of Ku , Shoom and the Café del Mar, disco was added to the mix alongside electronic and folky oddities. Over the last ten years they have welcomed many guests to add their interpretation, playing in the early days for a pizza and a few pints on a genuine 70s DJ console for extra authenticity. Many have been welcomed back over the years as the night has moved venues, always keeping the Sunday vibe alive and causing many a Monday morning work hangover As Aficionado has developed the playlist has become all encompassing, new old things have been found, new, new things have been found, old things have been rediscovered and given a new lease of life. Ten years on, the search for the perfect Nado beat continues. AFIC10NADO,br>

BIOG
Moonboots and Jason Boardman host Sunday night session Aficionado. Aficionado is widely regarded as the only place to go to on a Sunday in Manchester. Here you can catch up with your mates after the weekends partying, or you can chill over a quiet pint or dance your ass off as the night progresses. Moon and Jason have been DJing together at Aficionado for the last 8 years in various venues around the rainy city with the event inspiring numerous imitators to start their own 'Balearic Soirees'. Aficionado's popularity is mainly due to the pairs unique and varied Balearic DJ style and musical knowledge. Aside from Aficionado, Jason Boardman has recorded and remixed as Truant for Paperecordings and Grand Central. Jason has also performed as a DJ in many countries, being resident at seminal clubs such as Yellow, Hard Times and the Hacienda. Moonboots compiled the excellent compilation LP Soundcolours 4 and DJs throughout the country. The Chemical Brothers cite Moon as an early influence and he is widely regarded as one of the most innovative Balearic dj's in the world alongside the legendary Alfredo.
