What do you think of when asked to consider the Manchester music scene? Well, if you're my age and were in your teens when Britpop hit, your first thought might well be Oasis. I won't deny for a second that Manchester might equally well be celebrated for its significant and progressive connections with rave culture - for example, the legacy of the Hacienda and more recently a stunning take on Liquid Funk D&B courtesy of Soul:R Records.
