LOCALISM: NIGHT manoeuvres Takeover

Night Manoeuvres

A collaborative project uniting London DJ/producer ABSOLUTE., a veteran dancefloor architect, with synth polymath and multi-instrumentalist Dot Major (London Grammar).

NIGHT manoeuvres' sonic aesthetic is a symbiotic fusion of the duo's expansive skillsets commanding crowds, behind the decks and in the studio — blending ABSOLUTE.'s prowess in producing pulse-racing basslines and stone-cold hits with Dot Major's impressive classical training and their shared love for UK underground sounds, blending percussive left-field house/techno, analog bass and ambient textures into an emotional, often euphoric club landscape.

Their breakout single ‘Genesis’ caught the attention of fabric records, which signed NIGHT manoeuvres for a singles run. A limited run of NM white labels featuring ‘Genesis’ and ‘Resurge’ dropped in 2025. Followed by a string of live sets beginning at the British Museum, and ending at a fabric room 2 takeover. NIGHT manoeuvres kicked off 2026 playing Pitch Festival followed by supporting Caribou in Athens, and Vespas club with Percolate, all building up to a highly anticipated 2027 album.
