just imagine – all these guys on stage, jamming, djing, guitaring, singing, whichever. at the same time. – it worked, and that’s why it’s called FREAKLUB.
and then there was FREAKLUB
before we go on and indulge you with even more micro ‘mazements
, we’d like to take a moment to remember…
FREAKLUB.
we loved FREAKLUB. our micro director DJ tootekool birthed it into the world with his co-conspirator DJ micrometropolice.
every week, FREAKLUB fused the acoustic with the electronic. all sorts of great musicians, from Jazz Bassists to Djembe Longhairs, from Rock and Roll Crooners (Singers) to Punk-Jazz Pianists, were all brought together to jam with very electronic DJs in this weekly party fest.
all involved, a very talented graphic artist rbkes, hosts tootekool & micrometropolice, and the ever present VJ Exit[OS], joyfully slogged it out to become shanghai’s longest running club weekly yet (do correct me if i’m wrong, don’t think i am but).
here’s some youtube for you:
