Spacehouse presents GekkonenStage - electronic edition
[IMG]http://spacehouse.nn.fi/kuvat/2010%20clubs/gekko2.jpg/full[/IMG]
Vuonna 2000 Kotkan Meripäivillä järjestettiin kadunvaltaus ja mielenosoitus teemana se, että kaupunki ei ollut järjestänyt mitään tapahtumia nuorille kyseisillä festivaaleilla. Hetkeksi Kotkan poliisin tiloja ihmettelemään päätyi tuolloin myös eräs suomalainen dj-legenda. Vuodet kuluivat eikä asiaan oikein tullut muutosta. Eastwayn ilmaiskonsertteja Tik Takin ja Yön tähdittäminä toki pidettiin sunnuntaisin, mutta mitään massiivista monta päivää jatkunutta tapahtumien sarjaa, lavasta tai toimitilasta puhumattakaan, ei ollut.
Nyt 10 vuotta myöhemmin samassa paikassa Kotkan kantasatamassa soi neljän päivän ajan elektroninen tanssimusiikki ja monet muut tyylit Kotkan kaupungin, paikallisten musiikkiyhdistysten, sekä lukemattomien artistien voimin. Teknosta tanssiin, rokista teatteriin.
Spacehouse yhteistyökumppaneineen haluaa tarjota teille kahdeksan tunnin klubitapahtuman Kotkan Meripäivien sykkeessä Kantasatamassa lauantaina 31.7.2010. Ja mikä parasta, bileet ovat teille täysin ilmaiset, eli alueelle ei ole pääsymaksua ja nyt myös kaikki alle 18vuotiaat ovat tervetulleita tanssimaan. Bileitten lomassa "aikuiset" voivat virvoittaa itseään rajatulla anniskelualueella ja pilttien nestetasapainosta pitää huolta kioskiyrittäjät.
Musiikillisesti ilta kulkee kesäisestä housesta ja tribalista psykeprogeen, psytrancesta anthem tranceen ja voimakiksuun. Lopuksi viimeiset mehut tanssijoista tulee piiskaamaan kaksi energistä b2b-settiä.
Summary in english coming up!
DJ/LIVE:
Jussi Soro // ENHANCED / ALTER EGO / FIVE AM / CHOON!
Jussi Soro is currently one of Finlands most in demand DJs. Jussi has played for renowned international clubbing brands such as Gatecrasher, Godskitchen, Sundissential and Ministry Of Sound not to mention the biggest Finnish clubs Hallmark, Millennium and Illusions. 28 year old Jussi Soro comes from the Finnish city Turku. On home soil he has been awarded numerous accolades at the Finnish Club Awards, maintained residencies at Choon! and Essence and produces under the names 'Jussi Soro' and 'Miikka & Jussi'.
Jussi grew up with classical music and started playing the piano and violin when he was just five years old and continued his abilities for over ten years. At the same time he was also studying musical theory in music school. During his mid-teens he was involved in playing within a couple of rock bands as a guitarist. At the same time he achieved his first contacts for electronic music. Since his first rave party in 1994 he wanted to be a part of the electronic music scene, buying his first set of decks in 1998. Since then he's been an integral part of the Finnish scene, organizing clubs and events and, of course, DJ'ing almost everywhere.
Jussis musical style revolves around uplifting trance influenced by progressive house, psytrance, techno and electro. His first release on Five AM was a collaboration with Miikka Leinonen and it made record of the month in Mixmag. Since then Jussi has built a solid ground on producing, and is busy remixing and working with such names as Jan Johnston and Matt Darey to name a few. Hes currently signed to Enhanced, Alter Ego and Five AM.
Jussi still considers himself as 90% DJ and 10% producer. His passion for DJing is what keeps him going and he has received great recognition for his mixing skills and the flow of his sets. He enjoys gradually building his sets to the peak with more obscure tunes and twisted sounds, and then tearing the roof off with some of the biggest tunes of the moment.
Swoosh // FINRG
[IMG]http://spacehouse.nn.fi/kuvat/2010%20clubs/swoosh1.jpg/full[/IMG]
Swoosh a.k.a. Tero Viento attended the first Finnish warehouse parties of the early 90s and has been obsessed with techno culture ever since. Many of the early genres of electronic dance music such as acid, rave, hardcore and drumnbass have influenced his current selection of tunes. Especially the harder, harsher side of dance music appealed to him, and albums from numerous different genres piled up in his collection over the years. During the late 90s he also began to develop a gradually growing interest in spinning records.
The final spark for DJ work sprang from meeting E-NRG, (a.k.a. Ari Virtanen) and a group called Carbon Based. Some years later, in the early 2000s, he started considering a more serious DJ career.
Swoosh has played numerous gigs in various underground events, but has also performed at clubs and large events such as Endless Summer Party, SÄDE, FURY and FINRG Tour.
He has been closely following and acting as a background support in the operation of his friends label FINRG Records, and today he plays as a FINRG DJ.
Besides just deejaying DJ Swoosh is also managing FINRG Agency with Sergei Shkuroff and furthermore he is a part of the infamous STUTTGART KICKERS crew which has become widely known for throwing some of the most outrageous underground parties in Finland.
