Freq’show – Day 1: Flamboyant Freqshow
A parade of performers in true Halloween fashion – and its open invitation to revellers in costumes, as the night is set against the rousing kaleidoscope of soundscapes from bass, house to techno and disco from a stellar cast of DJs including 2ManyDJs (BE) and Hot Chip (UK).
2MANYDJs (BE)
They are masters in blending the finest products of music into a catchy, fun and all-intriguing groove exploration.

The Dewaele brothers have it in their record collection from Japanese geisha Hanayo covering ‘Joe le Taxi’, Adult Finnish disco from Ural 13 Diktators, sleazy Peaches to classics from The Velvet Underground, The Breeders, The Residents, Sly And The Family Stone and Nena.
Hot Chip – DJ Set (UK)
The Grammy and Mercury-nominated Hot Chip hasve pushed the boundaries of pop music. In 2003, they signed to Moshi Moshi and saw the release of Hot Chip’s first studio album Coming On Strong, an ambitious record that displays a distinct aversion to the aggressive nature of processed digital dance music, reintroducing listeners to its original spirit. Hot Chip were later joined by Felix Martin, Al Doyle and Owen Clarke who brought their unique skills to complete the indefatigable five-headed pop colossus.
Doorly (UK)
Discovered by Pete Tong when he played at one of Doorly’s Afterparty Warehouse events. Doorly was offered a Live Radio 1 Essential Mix.
