Can you relare?_club night

La.Ga.Sta. is already related with a series of amazing concept parties every Friday night at Art House in Thessaloniki, Greece. Let’s go! Vrooommm, Vrooommm….

1001 μουστάκια, 89,5 ντισκόμπαλες, 200 και κάτι μπουκάλια λακ, τόνοι χρυσόσκονης, lipgloss, κραγιόν, κοστούμια, διακόσμηση, μπαλόνια σε όλα τα χρώματα και εμείς, ετοιμάζονται για το opening party των Can You Relate?, την ερχόμενη Παρασκευή 24 Σεπτεμβρίου στο Art House. Θα φωνάξουμε φίλους, θα αλλάξουμε ρούχα, θα φάμε τα μουστάκια μας, θα φέρουμε τα πιο ωραία τραγούδια και θα κάνουμε όλο το μαγαζί πίστα. Για το πρώτο party είχαμε σκεφτεί σαν θέμα το κρέας, αλλά μας το έφαγε η Lady Gaga. Χεστήκαμε. Τζάμπα βενζίνη προσφέρει το La.Ga.Sta. Can You Relate?

Kάθε Παρασκευή, λοιπόν, ένα διαφορετικό concept party, με dress code που θα ανακοινώνεται μία βδομάδα πριν και θα ξεκινά από την πόρτα του Art House που θα μοιράζει τα ανάλογα αξεσουάρ. Can You Relate?

Mια φορά το μήνα ένας guest DJ θα κάνει relate μαζί μας. Για την ώρα έχουμε και λέμε:

Rory Phillips (8/10): O πιο hot μουσικός παραγωγός από το Λονδίνο γνωστός από τα remix του σε ονόματα, όπως οι The xx, New Young Pony Club, Golden Filter, Scissor Sisters και υπεύθυνος για την τεράστια επιτυχία του ‘High Pressure Days’ των Units που το παίζουν όλοι..από τους Αeroplane μέχρι των Εrol Αlkan.

Grum (29/10): Mε τον πιο ’80s δίσκο της χρονιάς, υπεύθυνος για τα remix των Goldfrapp, Groove Armanda, Friendly Fires, Passion Pit.

Horse Meat Disco (26/11): Mε τα πιο γρήγορα διαδεμομένα party στο Λονδίνο κάθε Κυριακή. Γνωστοί για τις disco επιλογές τους αλλωνίζουν εδώ και δυο χρόνια τα μεγαλύτερα club της Ευρώπης μεταφέροντας το club night του Λονδίνου.
