Fresh from an absolutely phenomenal season in Ibiza, we’re bringing the best of the summer’s shows and packaging it up for our party at Ministry of Sound, London on Saturday 30th October.
All the DJs billed here are currently driving the progression of House music and if you are into dance music in any way whatsoever you will have come across these three leaders.
Headlining is Dennis Ferrer, the unquestionable talent behind this year’s biggest dance record ‘Hey Hey’. Dennis Ferrer is tech, meets soulful, meets deep, meets disco. He is innovative and hugely passionate and one of the most involving performers you could wish to see. Take note, he is doing the late set ‘so ya’ll better have stamina’, as he would say.
Next up is DJ Gregory, the undisputed king of tribal beats. A former Parisian now living in Amsterdam, who works with talent such as Gregor Salto and the great Sidney Sampson of ‘Riverside’ fame. He has moved his sound into unique new territories, literally another continent. He is still deeply inspired by African rhythms and brings in a host of his own totally original tracks that blend beats and vocals from Angola to Brazil. Highly original, Gregory increases your propensity to dance by 100%.
Next up, the relative new kid on the block, we are proud to announce a LIVE set from Tensnake, the uber-talented producer from Hamburg, Germany who is doing his debut at MOS. Tensnake could not be hotter right now, as he is already championed as a leader in the nu-disco and 90’s revival scenes, and has just popped into the collective consciousness of clubbers worldwide due to the incredible ‘Coma Cat’.
It’s not just the main room that draws all the attention. The Bar at the MOS has showcased great talent in the past and to provide an alternative setting from the Box you’ll find Japans best known House DJs Studio Apartment doing their pumped up house thing. They will be appearing with another of the Defected roster Rae. Uniquely she does not only expertly DJ but also performs the vocals to her very own tracks, and is one of our fastest-rising stars.
Be there…
