Raveslave

In a perfect world, scientists would place a chip in my head so that I would instantly receive Erol Alkan's favourite track of the moment without going through the trouble of downloading, buying or going to places where funky shit gets spinned to hear these amazing new tunes. Unfortunately, that isn't the case yet so we still have to plough our way through heaps of shit before actually encountering a real gem. Parties are these to easy our life a little though and luckily there's plenty of those this weekend.


Tomorrow, it's nü-rave time at Petrol in Antwerp because Punks Jump Up are coming over and you better hope they spin that "Disco Wreck" remix they did for Don Cash because it'll set the place on fire. Monica Electronica will be around as well.

Over at Mirano in Brussels, the Dirty Dancing concept shows it is still one of the dominant forces in clubbing because Carl Craig is coming to burn down the house. If you haven't yet seen this guy spin, you best head the fuck over there...

We have though, which is why we are dragging our ass to a paradise which we will refer to as the übertrendy Make-Up Club in Ghent. Innervisions chief Dixon (the deepest of respect for his Body Language compilation) is coming to Belgium again and he'll make your body move to those funky deep housey tunes of his. Residents Fredo & Thang (isn't that the coolest name you've ever heard?) and Stephen are joining in as well. Did we already mention that this is a free party?

It's one of those weekends again when you just can't make a bad choice. You can only regret that you can't see all of them because these are absolute killer line-ups.
