RESIDENT DJ / ORGANISER DAVE TWOMEY [YUK / MYM ON SAMURAI FM]
yUKとKonZept Mausの両パーティーのオーガナイザー兼レジデントを勤めるDaveは、今最も忙しいアーティストの一人と言える。だが、若干27歳の彼の経歴を観れば、忙しさには慣れていることが一目瞭然で分かる。03年にイギリスで栄えあるDJ賞を獲得し日本でBest DJ 11位に輝いており、9年のキャリアで東京のビッグ5クラブの内3つのクラブでのレジデント経験を経ている。さらに世界中の国でのプレイ・ツアー経験と、常にミュージックシーンの最先端でいる事に忙しく、目まぐるしく活躍するDave。アルゼンチン、パラグアイ、チリ、ブラジル(サンパウロ D-Edge)と南米ツアーを定期的に行い、中国(上海Rojam)、韓国、台湾、インドネシアと東南アジアをツアーし、さらにはヨーロッパ(Ministry Of Soundロンドン)、ロシアと世界中の国でのプレイを経験しているDave。つい最近ベルリンとミュンヘンでの大型パーティーでのプレイも行い、さらなる躍進が期待されている。その精神は一つ一つのイベントのオーガナイズと彼自身のカッティングエッジなプレイでも伺うことができる。
NIPPON STEEL SUMMER 2007 TOUR DATES 8/03 ZMF, Berlin (GER) 8/11 Places @ Prinzip, Muenchen (GER)
Going strong now for nearly year and a half, "YUK" or "yUK" now featuring artists from resident DJ & head honcho Dave Twomey's weekend "KonZept Maus" is the midweek event hot ticket right now. Starting at Yellow now moved to Womb showcasing visuals, live art & most importantly cutting-edge underground house & techno from local & international stars like Falko Brocksieper, Touane, Mayuri, Q-Hey & of course Dave himself have helped create the midweek clubnight for Tokyoites, creative & crazy alike. Drawing upward of 200 people each month to the shrunk down main floor plus 4F apparently the boss of Womb himself on a recent visit was shocked that so many people were going crazy on a Thursday at his club. Nice. The TGIF (Thank God Its Friday) maxim taken to the next level, Friday does start on a Thursday night at midnght doesn't it?!
