Prepare your eyes and ears for a night of hair-raising audio and spine-chilling visuals with top turntablist, VJ, and fright-master DJ Yoda.
The performance space Rich Mix will be given full Halloween decoration and we’ve got a spooky late licence to take you raving into and way past the witching hour. You better watch your back, though as there will be a number of surprises in the form of ghoulish performance artists, hell-bent on scaring the living daylights out of you! Don’t say we didn’t warn you.
Think Hip Hop. Think The Muppets. Think scratching. Think 80’s pop. You can only be thinking about DJ Yoda. DJ Yoda (Duncan Beiny) is from London, England, and is probably the only guy out there playing the theme tune to Cheers in Hip Hop clubs. You can find him in the club (like 50 Cent) most nights per week – Yoda has traveled as far as Japan, USA, Canada and Australia to DJ with the likes of De La Soul, Gang Starr, Goldie and many more. However, Halloween is a fright night and whoever better to pull the severed head out of the bag than Yoda. And on the scariest night of the year, Yoda performs in vision as well as sound!
Landmark mixtapes such as How To Cut & Paste (in multiple editions), set the tone for Yoda’s career, expanding out into albums with The Amazing Adventures of… in 2006. Chop Suey and this year’s Breakfast of Champions followed, but he still found the time to collaborate with The Heritage Orchestra on record and is renowned for his genre-bending live performances with all sorts of artists. He’s also mixed a volume of the prestigious FabricLive series.
Yoda’s won awards too: the DMC Scratch DJ category of the Diesel U Music Awards 2001, and was a nominee for best UK Hip Hop DJ at the UK Hip Hop Awards.
The line up is complemented by Keep Up! Records DJs also performing an A/V set. Tom Central, has performed visual shows with some of the best in the business on stages across Europe with the likes of DJ Food, Plaid, Mala and many many more. Label owner and DJ and sometime producer, Tom took his sets onto the screen five years ago and continues to perform at AV events such as Videocrash, Soundcrash’s video mainstay.
This Halloween, get ready for the scariest party around.
As Soundcrash take over Rich Mix with DJ Yoda for the ultimate fright fest!
