Клубные российские · 06.09.2004
Naming his label Bedrock, John Digweed was not mistaken. Bedrock means "rock", "solid foundation", and for five years Bedrock has fully justified its name, serving as a reliable foundation for the most popular style of modern dance music - progressive house.
Bedrock is a true legend of European nightlife. Bedrock is the largest record label releasing signature compilations in millions. Bedrock hosts parties in the best clubs of Europe, America, and Asia, attracting tens of thousands of people to the dance floors weekly. Bedrock features renowned DJs as famous worldwide as Madonna and Robbie Williams. Bedrock is an A&R agency searching for new talents worldwide. Bedrock is the most popular radio show about dance music news, airing every week on the legendary radio station Kiss FM.
In September 2004, Bedrock officially comes to Russia. The first international dance music festival Bedrock will take place on September 17-18 in Moscow and St. Petersburg. In the future, this festival is planned to be annual - it will be held every third weekend of September in Moscow and St. Petersburg.
The first international dance music festival Bedrock is two Russian capitals, 12 hours of non-stop dance music, and 10 thousand participants.
The festival will feature the best European and Russian DJs. The headliners of Bedrock will be:
John Digweed
Bedrock founder John Digweed is a key figure in the world of dance music. Together with his longtime friend, DJ Sasha, he is the creator of the popular progressive house style. His track 'For What You Dream Of' became the unofficial anthem of clubbers worldwide and was included in the soundtrack of the movie 'Trainspotting'. In the DJMag professional ranking, John Digweed holds the fifth position.
