Worldbeat Club Mondial ♪♫♪ May 2016

Since I had to miss the second party of the year, I was happy to attend "Club Mondial" on May 7, 2016 hosted by World Beat Bremen e. V. sponsored by Funkaus Europa and held at Mensa Academia courtesy of the Bremen University of Arts - Music Branch.

As usual the DJs (the line-up is listed in the flyer above) played a great music mix and had the crowd dancing on both floors. Here is a sample from the Deep House specialist Biljana:

To my dismay I have now learnt that Picasa will no longer be supported by Google since they took it over and, therefore, I will not be putting my photos in a slide show until Google have refined their "animation"-widget or I think of another solution. Anyhow, Flash and all Flash-wigdets will be abandoned soon - as far as I know.

So it's time to move on from there... For the moment and until the above mentioned situation is resolved, I will be providing a link to my photos on my Facebook Photo page below where you can see the photos even if you are not on Facebook:

Worldbeat Club Mondial ♪♫♪ January 2016

"Club Mondial" hosted by World Beat Bremen e. V. sponsored by Funkaus Europa and held at Mensa Academia underneath the University of Arts - Music Branch is well on its way to becoming a staple in Bremen's nightlife and party-scene. The January edition was held on January 16, 2016.

We had had the first snow this winter so it was expected to be fairly empty because people prefer to stay at home on nights like this. However, to my surprise, quite a few guests had arrived by the time I got to the venue and more were steadily pouring in until around 2 a.m. Nevertheless, there was ample space to dance for those who attended this party for that purpose.

The music was great (please refer to the flyer above for the line-up) and the mixed crowd was pleasant. Because I am always curious, I found out that one young man from Uganda was out for the first time ever in Germany. I hope it was a great start for him. :-)

Here are the photos:

Worldbeat Club Mondial ♪♫♪ December 2015

World Beat Bremen e. V. hosted another "Club Mondial" sponsored by Funkaus Europa and held at Mensa Academia, the trusted venue underneath the University of Arts - Music Branch on December 12, 2015

This time the organisers had changed the set up a little and ~ I assume because it was a very rainy night ~ the venue was not as packed out as the last time. It was pleasantly crowded and we could dance and enjoy the music and lights without bumping into someone every two seconds. :-) Please refer to the flyer for the line-up!

Dancehall Hot Again III - December 2015

The lovely Anna and Robby John of Cranic Production hosted their third event in the series "Dancehall Hot Again" on the famous Reeperbahn in Hamburg on December 11! The headliner was Lionface aka Babyface formerly King Addies out of New York City! The other sounds present were all local and the vibe was wonderful.

Anna & Robbie

When I arrived there was a huge Christmas market in front of the venue but I didn't manage to take any pictures because it was raining and cold and I just wanted to get inside where I saw a giant lion head hanging over the stage. This was kindly arranged by Club Docks and made for some good photos while the DJs were doing their thing.

Soundgirl and Soundboys

Backstage there was food, cooked by the host himself, fruit and home made rum punch for those who wanted to have a drink. I only tasted it because I was driving but let me tell you, it was delicious as was the vegetarian food!

The massive celebrated the various playlists and especially that of Lionface because he brought the special New York vibe with him. Enjoy the photos, that ~ in my humble opinion ~ speak for themselves.
