Birthday of Headz.FM Parties
Клубные российские · 10.02.2009
In February, Headz.FM parties will celebrate their one-year anniversary at the Moscow club Ikra. During this time, many renowned foreign guests have performed here, including Gilles Peterson, DJ Krush, Jazzanova, Mark de Clive-Lowe, Ame, Peter Kruder, DJ Cam, Afronaught, Domu, Michael Reinboth, Kissey Asplund, and DJ Scribe. Starting in March, the party residence will move to the club "16 Tons." The nearest arrivals of foreign musicians and DJs can be expected there, while "Ikra" will focus on local talents.
Meanwhile, on February 14, Headz.FM symbolically celebrates its birthday on Kazakova Street. Old friend of Headz.FM Alan "Cukipapa" Brown will be the special guest of the evening – a "gray cardinal" of the global future-jazz community, a DJ with a twenty-year history, a true insider who is closely friends with scene giants like Kruder and Dorfmeister, Giles Peterson, King Britt, or Jimpster.
Among knowledgeable people, Mr. Brown's authority is undeniable, and his playlists are for many as important a source of inspiration and information as the charts from Peterson. Alan works for the well-known company Soul Seduction, which specializes in distributing electronic music from Vienna.
He left the British Isles seven years ago, exchanging the crazy atmosphere of the London metropolis for the leisurely smoky rhythms of Central Europe. In Austria, he settled in a small apartment that, according to his own words, resembles "a fairly clean shop of used records," plays in clubs, and hosts programs on several radio stations, including Vienna's Play FM, the radio of the famous Red Bull Music Academy, and of course the Moscow station www.headz.fm.
Broken beat, deep house, neo-soul, intelligent techno, hip-hop, Brazilian music – Alan's preferences are limitless, as is his vast music collection...
