Luciano & Greg Wilson pics & Videos - one/two amazing party!


LUCIANO!!!

What can I say, the party is well and truly over and everyone has recovered but the vibe keeps on going, kinda like an aftershock of an earthquake. I cant not stop thinking of the epic break downs Luciano pulls and the awesome retro (never though I would say that) Greg Wilson so seemly effortlessly played out.



For those of you from overseas Luciano played a very special concert in Sydney on a very unique boat. The Boat party had its fair share of tales, closed toilets, someone getting a bang in the face but my favourite was Luciano ARRIVING BY WATER TAXI! As the boat left he was still arriving at the airport after playing another gig in Melbourne! How Jet-set is that!

Here's a little Video of it


Greg Wilson played on the top deck and was a favourite for many as we all waited until Luciano arrived. He played a perfect new disco/retro set as well as playing with his reel to reel player!! The man has a lot of experience and this showed in this amazing set. I have never heard anyone mix in songs like these in such a way in all my comparatively short life!


KEEP IT REEL (Back of Greg Wilson Laptop sticker ;)

Luciano stepped up on the decks to literally destroy the dance floor. His unique take on DJing is very South American to me with driving tribal rhythms that are overlaid with with technoy sounds. Everyone went a bit loco in DC10 style with loads of jumping up action check it out below;


and one of my fav songs of the boat set;


Of course those that didnt know, Luciano played a second gig that same night at Sydneys newest club NEVERMIND. Those that got there early were in for a treat as Luciano rocked up at 10 and decided to jump on!! He than went on to tear the place down with a definitely darker vibe taking us on till 2am where he had to call it quits. The man did look fair tired at the end of it!


Some of my favourite pics from BOTH the Yacht party and the KINK nevermind club gig. Be sure to check out the gallery for more ;) they're all high resolution pics in the gallery so feel free to make them desktop pics or whatever just nothing on posters with out emailing me first!!!

Luciano to play 2 gigs in Syd this Saturday!! AHH!


Finally, the minimal and house (some call it micro-house what ever that means) star will grace our fine harbour of Sydney this Saturday headlining a Pulse Radio Yacht Party. What better way to spend your Saturday day then cruising around one of the most unique boats in any harbour of the world, listening to some of the best minimal, house and techno on offer in the world today! Luciano has being one of my favourite minimal producers with detailed and subtle rhythms in all his tracks that seem to just groove on as different layers are constantly added, a great example is his remix of Dave Aju's Crazy Place which at first my strike someone as rather simplistic is in fact a very detailed and driving track. The track has also being hammered by nearly all the biggest tech house and minimal DJs the past few months!

The promoters have also announced that anyone going to please be at King Street Wharf for around 10am (ouch!) as to load the 500 odd people onto the boat!

IF YOU MISSED OUT ON A TICKET, LIKE MANY OTHER PEOPLE, HE IS ALSO PLAYING AT KINK @ NEVERMIND THAT SAME NIGHT!

Luciano is headlining KINK with first release tickets already sold out and 2nd release %50 sold out! But not to worry if you are unsure of going, there will be a limited amount of tickets on the door going for $30 each! You can buy tickets from www.inthemix.com.au

Also I will be filming the epic breakdown moments from both the Yacht and club parties and uploading them on the Sunday so check back here if you were unable to secure a ticket!

ALSO! interesting stuff I hear another new International has being announced for the Lucanio concert happening this December, offically:

GREG WILSON (20:20) - 4 hour Set

Born and raised across the river Mersey from Liverpool, England, Greg Wilson is one of the key figures responsible for the development of the early 80's Electro-Funk scene in clubs across the north of England before its spread throughout the country. Borrowing from formative experiences at an early age in England and Continental Europe, Wilson introduced British club audiences to the revolutionary Dance music sounds coming out of New York City.

Both reviled by traditionalists and praised by those hungry for something new, Greg Wilson helped shepherd the evolution of Black Dance music in the UK from the Soul and Funk sounds that dominated the 70's to the emergence of House and Hip Hop in the late 80's. He retired from DJing at an early age in 1984, but has returned to DJ work in recent years and received the hero's welcome befitting his role in the history of Dance music.
