Get into the Bargrooves
If you've ever seen the funky looking Bargrooves discs in the CD racks and wondered what they're all about, this could be your chance. Seamless Recordings, the label behind the compilation series, will launch its latest releases, The White House and Bargrooves: Magenta, at Club 97 tomorrow night.
Graham Sahara (right), a resident DJ at the funky room in Ibiza's Pacha Club, is being flown in to launch The White House, named after one of London's leading DJ bars that inspired the birth of the Bargrooves series. The White House regularly hosts big names such as Basement Jaxx, Boy George, Norman Jay, Judge Jules and Seb Fontaine, and the disc is being released to celebrate the club's fifth birthday. Sahara is known for his sets of deep, jazzy house and will be bringing a bit of that sexy, summery Ibiza vibe to Hong Kong tomorrow night.
Supporting Sahara will be the first Asia-based DJ signed to Seamless Recordings, local boy made good Steve Bruce. Entry is free and the tunes start at 10pm.
Calling all deck heads
One of the hottest names in hip-hop will be spinning in Hong Kong tomorrow night, but chances are you're not invited. Grammy-award-winning producer Just Blaze will spin at the second-anniversary bash for Causeway Bay hip-hop clothing store Juice - and if your invite hasn't arrived yet, you may as well forget about it.
