Antidote Ladies Night

Antidote 23: Ladies Night

C's Bar, 685 Dingxi Lu (near Fahuazhen lu) SHANGHAI
9pm - late
Free entry for boys and girls.
10 RMB drinks for men and women.

Ladies Night? Yes, the talent was strictly female this night. All girl DJs. Starring...

DJ Lin [Afro-Latin music]
DJ Wolf Candy [atmospheric Drum and Bass]
DJ Kelly [electro]
DJ Ekki [tech-house and ROCK!]
DJ Siesta [drum and bass]
Followed by a "drag team" set with DJ GirlyFish, B-Sexchange, MsHP, Shanghai_Slutra, BoyNot! (only the ones wearing dresses got to play) ... and DJ Lady Ozone filled in the gaps.

* Turning the concept of "Ladies Night" on its head, the DJs were female, the entry and drinks were the same for boys and girls (we believe in equality, not gender drink specials).

Here's more info on the DJ line-up:

DJ Lin is from Shanghai. She plays at several venues around town, every week, pushing Latin, Salsa, Caribbean, Brazilian, etc. She runs a website about it called http://www.latingroove.cn/. We're excited to have her join Antidote for the night.

DJ Wolf Candy is from Shanghai. She mixes drum and bass with an atmospheric bent, on the local dance music website http://www.udancecn.com/ (look for Kelly;). This will be her first live/club DJ set -- another Antidote DJ debut!

DJ Kelly is from Singapore. She plays kick-ass electro, using Serato.

DJ Ekki is from Hong Kong. She plays all over Greater China, and will bless the decks at C's bar with some phat tech-house and ROCK!

DJ Siesta needs no introduction. She runs http://www.phreaktion.com/, bringing drum and bass to Shanghai for over 2 years now.

* On July 5th, 2007 ... Join the uprising as Antidote stages a surprise attack on one of Shanghai's top night clubs. We'll storm their posh surroundings and depose the resident DJ with sounds from the underground.

-- Mission complete. Ten of us dressed in masks and camo and ran into the plush members-only, Philippe Starck-designed Volar Shanghai and took over the music for the night. We notified a few hundred fans just an hour before, and gave Volar their biggest week-night yet!
