For our first London Kumasi party of 2014 we've lined up something rather special for you. An exclusive 250 person intimate all-night rave in a true gem of a studio space which has never previously been used before for music events. Spread over 3 interlinking chambers and a main 2-tiered mezzanine studio space, we invite you to run and rave amok to the sounds of our choice Kumasi Music guests in this spine-tingling setting.
Headind the bill is Kumasi Music favourite, Rayko. Spanish producer extraordinaire Rayko has been a leading light in the nu-disco edits scene for the past 5 years. Deeply rooted in '70s and '80s disco, funk, boogie and rock, Rayko's influences are masterfully interpreted and transformed into modern day dancefloor bombs. His mind-blowing edit of Candi Staton's 'Broadway' was Juno's #1 disco record of 2011, and his exquisite remix of Barbara Keith's 'All Along The Watchtower' has racked up a whopping 136,000 Soundcloud plays - a platform which he has amassed over 22,000 followers. Rayko's DJ sets are stuff of legend, as such we're delighted to secure his services for our first all-night session of 2014.
Matt Fear continues his Kumasi Music residency and will purvey his bass-heavy interpretation of the slower nu-disco/house sound that has found such popularity across world dancefloors of recent times. Never one to dissapoint, his latest remix for Kumasi (out February) takes us on a typically emotionally charged bass led journey to the basement, warehouse, and back again with a sublime cut of jacking tech-house artistry. Playfully tossing us one way then the next, Fear's rework of Matteo Floris's 'Dance!' makes you do exactly what it says on the tin, and is all set to destroy dancefloors across the globe.
Italy-born Barcelona based Kumasi new signing Matteo Floris has provided us with our first EP of 2014. Both 'Dance!' and 'Let Me Tell Ya' are beautifully crafted tracks in their own right, and we can't wait to hear them loud and proud on March 22nd. London duo Tainted Souls round off the bill, armed to the teeth with the kind of big-hitting releases which have seen them be signed to such labels as Amine Edge & DANCE's 'CUFF', Kolombo's 'LouLou' and Rob Made's 'Sleazy Deep' imprints.
Expect the usual high level Kumasi production and visuals throughout the space. Earlybird tickets are on sale now at the bargain January Sale price of only £5!
See you in the S-S-Studios!
