Thank you all who came to Hip'n'Bass last night at Oasis.
Thank you also to all of the performers, including our added surprize guests.
I had a wonderful time with all of you, and look forward to more nights there.
It was our second event, and it is looking like we will be doing it monthly there.
Last night started with me spinning a short set, followed by a tabla solo with Ferhan Qureshi accompanied by Sonia Mann on Sitar.
After that, we had a phenomenol bellydance performance by Clandestine, followed by some crunchy dubby bhangra beats by Kush Arora.
Then, a last minute impromptu set by some wonderful students of Ultra Gypsy in an encore performance of their debut Isis Project, which they performed earlier at Ashkenaz that night.
Jill, thank you for spreading the word and bringing the Ultra Gypsy vibe to Hip'n'Bass. You rock. All of you rock. Shana, Ann, Elizabeth, Cat, Carleigh, Jill, Deedee, etc.
After that, Kush continued his dubbified beats until the moment of ecstacy with ...
Belly-Groovin Goddess Frederique and her steaming dance performance, rockin the stage to her creatively mixed breakbeats and basslines. This girl can dance, and this girl can mix a seriously unique music set to complement her style. The one and only.
And then I got to humbly follow that up and close out the night with a DJ set accompanied by Ferhan Qureshi on tabla and another great percussionist who I met last time at Oasis.
In the front room we had a night of dub with Smartbeat Soundsystem's JME & resident DJs.
What a fun night.
