Hotel Shanghai - Celebrating Five Years Of Madness

This is it, my friends. Hotel Shanghai in Essen is definetly the club of this decade, if you speak for the West Germany region. I can't remember any wilder parties, crazier people, insane djs and bands happening in any German city apart from Berlin. And I find it more significant, that Hotel Shanghai is not located in a hipster city like Cologne. Where the Colgone club scene is stone dead now, Hotel Shanghai took place 75 Kilometers away, 5 years ago in Essen, heart of the Ruhr Area, or Ruhrpott how locals say and European Culture Captial 2010. A place for art, music, weirdos who want do D.A.N.C.E...
We had absolutely classic times at Hotel Shanghai with numerous cranky parties like Botox Disaster, Vendredi Grotesque, Gasmask or Gift. Club owner Kay Shanghai was always open-minded and crzy enough to carry our ideas. We regulary emptied the club when Kim Peers played experimental Art Pop instead of Gigolo Beats, Team Plastique flooded the club with champagne, Houston Bernard messed up all H&M shirts with milk and cream, Johnny Slut disappointed all Batcave Gothics, Peaches played cheap Glamrock, Mignon spitted blood, Amanda Le Pore made the people wanting their money back for only singing two songs (playback), Snax jumped ontop of the Unisex haircuts, Adriano Canzian missed the plane, Digitalism pretended to be famous (what the later became), Quasimodo Jones on heroine made the Jugo-Mafia club owner want to shoot him, Dirty Princess went completely kinky (and naked), Rummelsnuff let his muscles play, The Hacker, Terrence Fixmer, Carretta and Spetznaz regularely pulled a die-hard EBM pogo-mob, and so and on.
I can go on with countless stories, incedents and accidents. Those who've been there with us will never forget...

Now it's time to celebrate this dirty little place with, what any international and national DJ will agree, the best soundsystem in the universe. 5 years of madness!
Join us with a classic Hotel Shanghai line-up:

ASCII DISKO
CODEK & FLEXOR
BOMB BOUTIQUE
SANG
CYBERSISSY & BABY JANE
plus more....

Saturday 13.12. at Hotel Shanghai, Steeler Str. 33, Essen City, 23cet

Berlin Supersoul

Quite surprising for me when DFA came up with a compilation of ex Terranova´s Xavier Naudascher´s SUPERSOUL label. I´m a big fan of his releases, urban streetcruising Disco for DeLorian drivers. Although I don´t own a car like this, "Nobody Knows Anything - DFA Presents Supersoul Recordings" is a constant play in my iPod. Far away from boring Kompakt Minimal Trance, these people definetly want to float into space. So will I!

Check out Supersoul´s Myspace: www.myspace.com/supersoulrecordings

29.8. If somebody comes solo, it must be Carbonid Solo

Indeed friends, my better dj half Carbonid Solo will play with Simon2 at mighty Hotel Shanghai. If you´re in Essen area, you should better be there and experience some turntable artistics!

Jessie Evans at SO36, 16.08.2008

Well, if you thought good ole Burlesque kinda Voodoo Beat can´t be reinvented in modern music, you haven´t heard Jessie Evans yet. Former The Vanishing singer presented her new project with her partner and former Iggy Pop drummer Toby Dammit at Berlin´s sold out SO36 Club in Kreuzberg. An amazing mixture of Toby´s skillfull drumming and percussion and Jessie´s cold 80´s voice and her gunting saxophone equals some wild Hypnotease. Imagine ESG meet Les Baxter in a Berlin 1920´s cabaret. Simply amazing!

I always believed in Drum & Bass as the most powerful music....

unfortunately the embedding does not feature the amazing captions. Drum & Bass lovers should open the video on Youtube to see them.

Howdy peeps.

This is the Bomb Boutique Blog - or Bomb Blog. I guess, as the statistics on my website document, I will get monthly hits by the US goverment, military etc. But again, sorry folks - Bomb Boutique is no store for terrorists, as long as they are not dancefloor terrorists who love to blast a packed dancefloor with some hard hitting beats.
