What made Twilo worth resurrecting for one night?
Twilo, at 530 West 27th Street in Manhattan, closed in 2001, but from 1996 until then it was the room where John Digweed and Sasha built America's progressive house scene almost from scratch, holding down residencies that regularly ran eight hours deep into the morning. A quarter-century later, Twilo still sits near the top of every serious "greatest clubs ever" list dance writers compile, mentioned in the same breath as the Paradise Garage or Berlin's Tresor. That's the room Digweed walked back into on March 6, 2026.
What actually happened that night?
The date wasn't picked at random: the one-off reunion fell during Danny Tenaglia's birthday weekend, and Digweed played five hours spanning three decades of dance music, from records that soundtracked Twilo's original run through to tracks made this decade. Digweed put it simply afterward:
"This was such a special night for me, and being invited back to play Twilo again, for Danny Tenaglia's birthday weekend, was a dream come true."
Twilo the building is long gone as a functioning club, but for five hours in March, its original crowd got the room back.
What's actually on the four CDs?
Bedrock Records, Digweed's own label, is releasing the set as Live at Twilo on July 24: four CDs running the full five hours, threading classics from Deep Dish, Angel Moraes and John Creamer & Stephane K against newer material from Frankey & Sandrino and Rocco Rodamaal. The digital edition streams as four continuous mixes on Bandcamp, priced from £20; CD and vinyl packs are sold through Bedrock's own store. The limited-edition signed copies didn't last: they sold out within 10 days of the July 9 announcement, before most of the scene outside Digweed's mailing list even heard about it.
