===================
Following on from last year’s magnificent 10th Birthday event, which saw over 1000 people attend, renowned UK record label Wah Wah 45s return to The Scala to showcase some of the imprint’s finest acts, new discoveries, new friends and welcome international guests from across the globe.
On Saturday November 27th we’re bringing together another enormous soundclash of musicians, DJs, beatboxers and VJs to once again give you the biggest and greatest Wah Wah Party known to man.
In the main room you’ll find yourself being warmed up and enchanted by the label’s number one chanteuse – and a lady who’s winning fans as impressive as Mark Ronson, The Mercury Music Prize and The Roots’ ?estlove – Stac. This unique talent will be performing with her full band and incredible 12-piece choir. And that’s just the beginning! We’ve got live sets from brand new Tru Thoughts signings The Hidden Orchestra (think Bonobo meets the Cinematics), and Matt Ford (AKA DJ Format) & Simon James’ new project The Simonsound (featuring Laura J Martin and Debbie Clare) before we unleash another live Wah Wah outfit on your ears in the shape of the fattest brass to come out of the East End since Pat Butcher, The Hackney Colliery Band! This ten piece brass juggernaut have been blowing the roofs off venues far and wide this year, and what better way to finish it off than with a headlining live set at our annual extravaganza.
And we’re not finished there! Room One also plays host to a quartet of the finest DJs known to humankind. Mancunian duo The Unabombers are famed for their legendary Electric Chair nights and seamless DJ sets taking in disco, soul, boogie and house. They don’t play very often in London, so when they do you can expect a roadblock. Similarly, you can expect the same when our co-headliner plays in the big smoke. Since moving to Columbia, Quantic’s UK sets are few and far between, but on the rare occasions he does make it to the capital you can expect to be dazzled by his selection of tropical rarities, hip hop treats, exclusives from his own productions and silky DJ skills. And talking of silky skills, our final guest has them in bucket loads. Maybe not a household name, but German DJ Florian Keller is one of our favourite DJs full stop. His “Party Keller” compilations (Compost Records) are simply brilliant, and his sets, comprising as they do of the finest funk, boogie and old skool rap, are not to be missed! With your favourite Wah Wah residents filling in elsewhere, this is the line-up you’ve been waiting for, and would be more than worth the ticket price alone were it not for two more rooms of musical mayhem!
We’re bringing something very different to Room 2 this year. The boys and girls from Musical Bingo host nights across the capital that combine everyone’s granny’s favourite pastime with quality DJs and a combination of top and rather kitsch prizes. You’ll receive your Musical Bingo card on entry to the venue, and games will take place on the hour between 11pm and 1am on the night.
Finally, in Room 3, we’re proud to present our latest signing, Resonators, who’ll be performing a live acoustic jam at 9pm sharp, so make sure you get down early to catch this extremely talented outfit. Then, we’ve invited one of London’s finest underground parties and Garden Party favourites Boglewaltz to bring their party to our party for one night only! They’ll be joined by some of Europe’s finest eclectic DJs who collectively make up The Scandinavian Jazz Mafia. Special guest DJ Astroboy from Edinburgh will also be stopping by to drop some quality global niceness, and if you need a break from all that, then head to the Wah Wah Shop for limited edition tees, stickers, vinyl and CDs courtesy of Hands On Music.
Optical delights come courtesy of our favourite light surgeons, Exceeda & Jim Hairy Eye.
