The Shapeshifters bow out of 2007 with a bang on Saturday 22nd
December with the final chapter in their exclusive Turnmills residency
– the Christmas Special!! Stockings, Mince Pies, Mistletoe, Santa’s
little helpers… they’ve all been ordered, and to go along with some
good ol’ fashioned festive cheer, the nocturnal crew have also put
together a Christmas cracker of a line-up fit for the occasion. Taking
place only a few days before the big day, this really is the last
chance throw the mother of all parties, before it’s off to Grandma’s
for extra pigs in blankets and a new knitted sweater.
Setting the musical tempo for the evening, The Shapeshifters lead
from the front with one of their classic 4 Hour Sets. They’ll be backed
up in the main room by Turnmills legend and all round house icon, CJ
Mackintosh, plus nocturnal groove resident Simon Hawes. All in all,
it’s been a rather spectacular year for The Shapeshifters. Their
nocturnal night at Turnmills has proved to be a huge success, with 3
sell-out parties throughout the year and guests of the calibre of
Martin Solveig, Dimitri from Paris, Miguel Migs and Jon Cutler.
They’ve played major gigs throughout the summer including a live
show at South West Four and a rocking DJ set at Global Gathering,
plus the usual global circuit on tour and plenty more besides. On the
production front, ‘New Day’ did some serious damage – taken from
the forthcoming artist album (released early 2008) and drum n bass’s
leading lady Jenna G joined the band full time.
On the guest front… CJ Mackintosh is a genuine bona fide legend of
dance music and one of the nicest blokes to boot. He kicked off his
career back in the mid 80s on the soul jazz scene, before later
producing chart gold with the cut and paste classic ‘Pump up the
Volume’. A record that marked the evolution of the DJ as something
more than just the guy who changes records, Mackintosh was
perfectly placed to ride the acid house boom. His DJing schedule hit
stratospheric heights, resulting in a famed residency at MOS and
over 20 years later, CJ is still wowing crowds around the world with
his soulful selection. Turnmills holds fond memories of its own for CJ,
who for 4 years was monthly resident at cult party City Loud and so
it’ll be great to get him back behind the decks as The Shapeshifters’
special guest. Some might say Christmas has come early?
Some would definitely scream those words when seeing the name of
tech-house pioneer Stephan Bodzin on the bill over in T2. The
German superstar will headline the intimate space as special guest
for top London promoter’s Nodisko, who’ll be throwing their 4th
Birthday blowout with a heavy session for the heads. Bodzin made
his name through his original production work and collaborations with
the likes of Oliver Huntemann and Mark Romboy. He made his live
UK Debut at Turnmills back in July to promote new album ‘Liebe Ist…’
and you could sense something special was happening that night as
Stephan was not only mobbed everywhere he walked, but T2 was
also at its busiest ever, as everyone scrambled to witness the great
man in action!! We expect part 2 to be just as crazy, so whatever
you do, do not miss it!! Stephan is the latest high-end guest to play
Nodisko. Over the years they’ve had everyone from The Glimmers,
Simian Mobile Disco, Headman and Kavinsky to Claudio Coccoluto,
David Duriez, Lindstrom and Rub N Tug, so top draw DJs all the way.
Nodisko is brought to life by residents Zak Frost (Drum Cult) and
Magic Jase, with newcomer Lazer joining the (Christmas/Birthday)
party!
Christmas is coming to Turnmills. Be joyful. Be Merry. Be involved!!
