Dave Angel @ Attica (2004)

It's been just slightly over a month since Midnight Shift's last party, but it's back in a higher state with Dave Angel (UK), Norman Chung and Kaye at Ku De Ta on Sat, 27 August. For those who like to research on what they are getting themselves into, here are a few items on a need-to-know basis:

Dave Angel (UK)

No stranger to Singapore, Dave has performed more than a handful of times at Zouk (1998-2002), ZoukOut (2001) and Attica (2004) in previous years and there was little choice but to bring him and his sound back to a crowd of new ears. Expect by special request, "classic house music with a twist".

Expect "old favourite gems and jams reworked".

"We don't have a bias towards the type of music coming out from any country but the rest of the world doesn't think so. So what we're doing with the label is playing that game and attempting to break down those walls."

Don't forget you'll also be watching visuals by tagteam, LLDFF + Electrocaine.
