"Just imagine a super hot tabla master accompanied by classical guitar and bassed up with the rhythm and drone of a didj. Whoo, how cool is that?!"

Mukana myös DJ Soma (info page), joka tarjoilee alkuillasta letkeää ja myöhemmin hyvinkin tanssittavaa elektronista maailmanmusiikkia. Lisää tietoa tästä maailmalla erittäin voimakkaassa kasvussa olevasta musiikista löytyy tältä infosivustolta

Kulttuurikeskus Caisa sijaitsee aivan Helsingin keskustassa, Kinopalatsin aulan yläpuolella, kts. kartta

Paikka on todella hieno, siisti ja hyvässä kunnossa. Äänentoisto ja valot ovat huippuluokkaa ja mukana myös VJ tarjoamassa visuaalista viihdykettä. Tila on savuton, joten siellä pystyy hengittämään vapaasti. Alkoholia kyllä tarjoillaan, olutta ja viiniä.

Sisäänpääsy vain 5e !!!

Be cool, be global!
