First we had super clubs, then superstar DJs, now we have something even more super: playing music YOU want to hear by becoming an iPod DJ for 15 minutes. Playlist nights invites people to come along with their iPod or any MP3 player, connect it to the sound system, and play 15 minutes' worth of their chosen songs. It's a concept that is the ultimate expression of democratic clubbing.
The idea was spawned in north London by Jonny and Lisa Rocket, who were only to happy to lend their brand to Reading's music scene. Not only is iPod DJing interactive and fun, but it will create a night filled with many different genres and musical tastes. Furthermore it also connects with our musical egos - who doesn't get a bit of a lift when they see others enjoying the music they have chosen? The event debuts in Reading's Afro Bar, Merchants Place in Reading on Thursday October 13 from 7pm to 11pm. There will be prizes for the best three DJs. If you don't want to DJ, just come along and chill out in the relaxing bar and enjoy the variety of music that will be on offer. |
