secretsundaze. secretsundaze w/ Todd Terje. Was On Sunday, March 7th. @ Paramount, Centre Point, 103 New Oxford Street, 2pm - 11pm
secretsundaze in association with the Red Bull Music Academy are proud to announce a collaboration in the form of a party on Sunday 7th March at Paramount in the epicentre of London. We are particularly honoured to have been asked to get involved in such a project with something as credible as The Academy which has always been so firmly focused on helping, encouraging and developing cutting edge, nascent talent - ideals which we hold with such high esteem at secretsundaze.
Paramount is situated on the 31st floor of Centre Point 385 feet up in the air and with unparalleled 360 degree vistas, is sure to make it party not to forget. Of course both secretsundaze and RBMA will be transforming the venue production wise in keeping with our high production values.
Musically as usual, we have quite a treat in store. Headlining is Todd Terje. Todd's music exudes musicality and playfulness covering the bases of House, Techno, Funk and Disco and a strong resistance to be pigeonholed. In terms of production, he broke on to the scene big time, with his remix of “Another Station” and Eurodans through his allegiance with Oslo's other famous perpetrators Prins Thomas and Lindstrom. He could also be crowned King of the edits, covering everything from Moodyman and Simon Baker thorugh to Chris Rea, Guns N Roses and The Turtles. But perhaps the only way to sum up his music is in the words of the man himelf "“I like playing both big room/macho style, but at the same time it’s the girls I play for really. So I guess it’s a mixture of high octane, leather homo-disco done up with mambo, coconuts and lipstick”. If you got to see his special 3 hour set at last year’s Big Chill then you will know what he’s talking about.
Our second guest we are also hugely excited about comes in the form of Soundstream. Strictly one for the headz! Soundstream, based in Berlin, originally worked in the hallowed shop Hard Wax, alongside the likes of Prosumer and Cassy, amongst others, has been singled out for his fresh take on House and Disco, with massive underground hits such as "Live Goes On” and "Luv Jam", which were staples on many discerning jocks boxes, with their authentic sound. His band Soundhacks, remixes for Villalobos "Easy Lee" and Herbert's "Moving Like a Train", cemented his reputation as one of the movers and shakers of the last few years.
Last up out very own gun slingers Giles Smith and James Priestley will be in full force alongside a participant from the Red Bull Academy hand picked by both RBMA and secretsundaze.
With an allegiance between secretsundaze and RBMA with such a mouth watering line up all taking place in one of the most stunning, unique locations in London, makes this an unmissable party. See you there
