2manyDJs///Soulwax |
Planning my 21st celebrations OR Post-structuralist management and the world of advertising science ? I think you can guess what I've been up to, I WILL go back to work soon though. I've been looking for a the perfect gig to go to in London for my 21st, its a double celebration with my gorgeous friends Dems (he might be a little older than 21 though now ;) ha..) but forgetting that it is going to be one wild weekend that awaits us. Anyway I got searching for 2manydjs tickets somewhere but seems they are keen on the north over march and april - STRANGE. So someone else will have to entertain us! I'd like to blog about them anyway.. 2ManyDJs/Soulwax as you might otherwise know them as are 2 Belgian Funk DJs whose electric mixes have played to clubbers all over the world; their now A List status has got artists like Royksopp, MGMT and even Mr Beethoven queueing up with their cds shouting "MIX MEEE". Maybe not literally speaking but thats how the scene plays out in my head!
First saw these at Benicassim FIB Festival in Spain; they were the headliners on the first night and were for want of a better word since I am apparently overusing this word at the moment: AMAZING. Me and the girls didn't know what to expect when we got their. Electronic/Dance playing outside - questionable?! It was like when I saw FAITHLESS at V Festival, utterly disappointed.. to say I had love them for as long as I can remember I was massively disappointed when I saw a little Alien looking man on stage who fidgetted about on stage, up to his eyeballs on drugs and singing in a way that looked like he was having a spiritual thing with God....It did rain soon after that actually, I blame you MAXI JAZZ!
2 many DJs are pretty damn awesome though, they managed to remix Destiny's Child into Chemical Brothers into Beethoven one after the other.. it got us jumping and hyper anyway - think I might have even snogged a rather good looking guy who was stood next to us in the excitement. (Great excuse by the way girls ha!)
What added to the effects of the set too were the images they played on screen, you could barely see the DJs themselves but it really didn't matter as they played funny images and flashing faces as you danced away, glow sticks in one hand and a pint of something in the other!
Would recommend listening to the songs below and doing a little search of your own; if I don't get to see them for my birthday they will be making a BIG appearance in my music playlist for one of numerous pre drink parties! FiftysAtHeart xx
