Eddie Halliwell is playing two surprise sets in Finland as a part of his worldwide promotion tour. Eddie, currently ranked number 20 in DJ Mag's Top 100 DJ Poll, is coming over on February saturday 7th to do a mid-evening set in Diva in Lahti and to finish off the night in Helsinki Club. Much applauded Halliwell has risen to international stardom in just few year's time and is currently holding residencies in such clubs as Gatecrasher and Sundissential.
Eddie Halliwell soittaa oman promootio settinsä Helsinki Clubilla 02:15 - 03:45. Ilta on normaali Helsinki Clubin lauantai meininki ei esim. Club Colorsin klubi- ilta tai vastaava. Lippuja ei ole myynnissä ennakkoon vaan ainoastaan ovelta hintaan noin 7 euroa. Eddien tuloa Helsinki Clubille ei mainosteta/kerrota muulla kuin Plattarin, Street Beatin, Findancen tai Klubituksen sivuilla... Mikäli et ole koskaa kuullut Eddien soittavan niin suosittelen kaverin tsekkamiista nimittäin en ole kuullut monenkaan dj.n soittavan teknisesti niin hyvin kuin hän sen tekee. Tämän vuoden DJ Magin 100 DJ Poolin numero 20 sekä Mixmagin tämän vuoden paras DJ!! Mikäli ei ole parempaa tekemistä la. 7.2.04 niin tervetuloa tsekkamaan miehen soittotaito.. et varmaankaan tule pettymään!!!
BACKGROUND
Eddie bought his first set of decks at the tender age of 15. His realisation that he was too young to play in clubs led him to a 3 year Music Technology course, where he picked up some of his creative talents such as his now famous, hip-hop style scratching. This ability to scratch over different genres of music has earned him not only respect from fellow DJs, but also much admiration from stunned crowds. Add this to the fact that hes a born showman (his interaction with the crowd has got to be seen to be believed!) and you have a club full of very happy people!
Eddies first residency was at Manchester based 2Klub - alongside Fergie and the Tidy Boys which led to his involvement with the now historic Leeds Love Parade 2000.
Eddie began his residencies for Goodgreef & then Gatecrasher & now plays for club giants such as Slinky, Garlands, Inside Out, Promise, Escape & Sundissential on a regular basis. Memorable gigs in 2001 include his outstanding debut at the re-opening of Gatecrasher back in July and a special appearance at the Mixmag Christmas party in London, where he played back to back with Rob Tissera and alongside Tall Paul and in 2002 had regular features on him in Mixmag, DJ, Ministry and M8 not forgetting the famous ID&T Mysteryland Festival in Holland.
2003 saw Eddie perform guest mixes on Judge Jules & Pete Tongs regular Weekend shows on the BBC Radio 1 stage at the legendary Mardi Gras event in London.
Eddie has also made his mark at UK festivals Gatecrasher SSS in 2002, Tidy Weekender, Escape Into The Park and Headlining the Frantic/Nukleuz Arena & playing in the Main Arena at Creamfields 2003.
