Songpot · Amsterdam Dance Event 2026

This is house with a New York lineage: soulful, vocal, and built around durable grooves rather than novelty. The festival text and bio both point to remixes and collaborations, so the likely shape is a DJ set that leans into classics, edits and his own catalog rather than pure current hype.

More about Manny Ward

Manny Ward’s bio places him in the Frankie Knuckles orbit in New York, with early gigs at the Roxy, Sound Factory Bar, Tunnel and Stereo Montreal. He also names collaborators like Celeda, Lula, DJ Gomi and Sandy B, which puts him in the classic vocal-house/remix lane.

A story
