Meet the DJ who spends her weekends in the LOO - spinning tracks to revellers while they relieve themselves.<br /><br />Emma Charles, 40, is a resident at Ibiza-inspired The Washhouse, a trendy bar and club in Manchester.<br /><br />She spends every Friday and Saturday night mixing tunes in the toilets, entertaining clubbers.<br /><br />The Warehouse has specially built bathrooms - called disco loos - which include a disco ball and DJ decks.<br /><br />But Emma says many partygoers are unaware of the set up - and are bemused when they enter.<br /><br />She said: “The main thing I love about, it’s like there’s no rules - you’re in a bathroom, do what you want. <br /><br />“Some people walk in and don’t know what's happening and then get so into it. <br /><br />“Then there are people who just come for the bathroom. I love that they’ve planned their night to just come to a bathroom. <br /><br />“I guess I’m just here to spread the bathroom love and show them the best pee of their life.” <br /><br />The Washhouse is hidden in the centre of Manchester - as it's disguised as a laundrette – complete with washing machines. <br /><br />Parties get into the venue through a huge tumble-dryer door or by opening a vending machine. <br /><br />The popular night sees people from across the city – and country – making a pilgrimage just to party in the loos. <br /><br />Emma first started DJing at the venue a couple of years ago but says things have really taken off in the last year. <br /><br />“I’m a DJ outside the loos as well, I’ve been DJing for a while,” said Emma. <br /><br />“The disco bathroom has taken my career off and I owe everything to it, you can clearly hear my love for the disco bathroom. <br /><br />“I’ve always been a person people come to for tunes, but since disco bathroom was built a couple of years ago and really taken off in last year it’s just taken me and my DJing to the next level. <br /><br />“It’s so lovely, you’re filled with nothing other than banging tunes and gorgeousness, it’s just such a nice experience. <br /><br />“You do get people coming in to pee, but I can’t describe it, it’s got something extra. <br /><br />“It’s all so inclusive, it’s unisex with mega cubicles with a different picture on the front of each cubicle which adds a vibe to it. <br /><br />“There’s only a DJ in there on Friday and Saturday nights – when there’s no DJ, there’s a massive red button saying ‘don't press this’ and when you do disco lights come on and one verse of an ABBA song plays. <br /><br />“It’s just so open and welcoming for a bathroom.”
