LinseyBanana Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 - kicking off July with a bang as Funk D' Void, nearly 20 years in the game and still touring and producing at the highest level, makes a long awaited return to Snafu. His diversity and consistency has brought huge acclaim from key figures over the years, balanced well with a string of dance floor smashes. === Fri 6th July === FUNK D'VOID (Soma / Cocoon / Bedrock / Outpost) 11pm-3am || £7 adv || 1 Union St, Aberdeen________________ Adv tickets from our website and RA Lars Sandberg AKA Funk D'Void, is a DJ and producer who has been at the forefront of the global electronic music scene since the mid-90s. He started Djing at around the tender age of 15, running two under-18 clubs himself – a perfect start to his career. Knowing his vocation to music from an early age after being brought up by his professional pianist mother, Lars never had any doubt as to where his future would lie. House music changed his life, the early Chicago sound specifically, and hearing the certain sounds during his childhood stirred something inside him; the 808 drum machine used on Marvin Gaye's “Sexual Healing” secured his fascination with these electronic sounds – the turning point over to the Detroit techno sound was almost a spiritual moment as it forged his unique sound that would follow over the coming years – visceral, soulful and without compromise. After a string of hits over the years (“Jack Me Off”, “Bad Coffee” “Emotional Content”) plus some killer remixes for the likes of Underworld, New Order and Kevin Saunderson, he is probably best known for the end-of-nighter 'Diabla' which bridged house and techno (and was flogged by everyone from Danny Howells to Sven Vath). And if you look carefully you’ll also spy the name ‘L. Sandberg’ in the liner notes of releases by deep house producer Francois Dubois, whose “Blood” and “I Try” were huge underground hits of 2006 and 2007 respectively. Collaborations with such luminaries as Phil Kieran and more recently Sian have produced stellar results - further galvanising his diversity in the techno arena and has led us to the somewhat overdue arrival of his own personal label, Outpost. Much in demand DJ and critically acclaimed producer, his Djing style is everything you expect a true music lover’s taste to be: he is comfortable and adept at moving any dancefloor, the proof being that he is one of the busiest Djs on the circuit today, and has been for the last 15 years._______________ clubsnafu.com/box-officeclubsnafu.tumblr.comtwitter.com/snafu_aberdeen Snafu1 Union St, AberdeenWorld's Top 100 Clubs 2012 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
