A Innovative New Year’s Eve with SE:SA
SE:SA in concert, Barsky club (5 Chervonoarmiyska), 31 December at 23.00
SE:SA, with their unusual name, is a side-project out of the Syke’n’Sugarstarr camp, headed by the producer-honcho Serhat Sakin. But – SE:SA is not only a studio-project. They’re also touring the club scene worldwide as a DJ duo. And their most appealing aspect is just how fresh they sound while DJ’ing, which, as anyone who has seen them on the decks will know, is as diverse and experimental as their studio work. The best way to describe them would probably be as musical pioneers, which, in this age of copyists and covers merchants, is exactly what the world needs right now. Admission fee for ladies – 100 hrv, for gentlemen – 300 hrv. For more information call 496-0606.
