Hi all Just came back from seeing Shake play at this party in Sydney - Boom Boom at Spice Cellars in Martin Place. It wasn't the best promoted party but I'm glad people came out to see him.
Great tracks, really liked how he mixed up house, techno and beats. Always good to hear stuff I haven't heard before... and although this was (supposedly) marketed as a 'house' party, Shake played plenty of techno, including some Rob Hood. Everyone went nuts when he dropped Jupiter Jazz. There was a bit of mixing on the off beat and just playing around with the beats in general and it overall reminded me of some of the beats in some of the records he has produced. Shake is playing Melbourne on Monday night - it's pretty much a long weekend in Melbourne due to the Melbourne Cup Holiday. Mercat Basement, 456 Queen St, Melbourne. Mon Oct 31, doors 10pm, $23.50. It was great to also see Shake here in Australia, the flight is so long (he told me 5 + 15 hours) and I had ruled out seeing him here years ago. He was in good spirits and told me he's been djing out a lot more overseas :) Cheers Melody
