RAW: Future Entertainment Presents ‘Godskitchen’ – 1st Oct – Adel Gaol

GODSKITCHEN 2011 – BLACK & WHITE JAIL EDITION

After a phenomenal response to Godskitchen in Adelaide last year, Future Entertainment and Subconscious Entertainment had no option other than to take the event even further in 2011.
Starting out as a burgeoning series of underground Trance parties in the UK, today sees Godskitchen firmly established as one of the world’s undisputed dance culture powerhouses and unparalleled clubbing super brands. From record-breaking club nights to successive global sell-out compilations, and from the annual 30,000-strong Global Gathering to the weekly madness that is AIR Nightclub, there is little that this deeply respected and cherished icon hasn’t achieved.
For the last 14 years, the Godskitchen juggernaut has been traveling to Australian shores and delivering unforgettable arena parties. Featuring massive lineups sparkling with the world’s biggest DJ stars, and boasting awe-inspiring décor, world-class lighting/laser racks and state-of-the-art effects; ‘GK’ events, as they’re affectionately known have become a deliciously regular and highly-anticipated fixture on the local ‘special event’ calendar.
For starters, in 2011, Godskitchen is going outdoors with no better setting than the Old Adelaide Gaol, hence the Black & White theme but it doesn’t stop there!
Godskitchen will be a daytime event kicking off at 1pm until late in the evening.
Expect to see 3 stages including: Godskitchen, Pharmacy (Yes Melbourne’s renowned hard dance brand) and Locals stage. The event will be 3/4 under marquee covering, big sound and lighting display, food available on the day, the black & white dress theme is only befitting with the two styles of music on display.
That’s right, there’s no Boombox, no 3D … just four of the best Trance DJs – Marco V, Richard Durand, John Askew and Ben Gold – ready to put you behind bars for one very special party, in one of Adelaide’s most iconic locations.

Marco V
Nation: Holland
Born in the Dutch lowlands of Heeswijk-Dinther, Marco Verkuijlen has established himself as one of the most inventive, diverse and creative electronic music minds working today. Originally cutting his DJ teeth at the famous DansSalon club in Eindhoven, he has gone on to create gridlock on dancefloors in the farthest corners of the globe. Playing a near uncountable number of tent-pole events, he has long been the go-to DJ for the likes of Trance Energy, Sensation, Creamfields, Nature One, Love Parade, Dance Valley, Global Gathering and Monster Massive. The result of this has been an unbroken run of top 50 positions over the last seven years in the DJ Magazine chart. The genius behind bombs like ‘Godd’, ‘Indicator’, ‘Echnalava’, ‘More Than A Life Away’ and ‘Coma Aid’, Marco is widely accredited for masterminding the Tech-Trance sound that has taken the planet by storm over the last five years.

Richard Durand
Nation: Holland
Without doubt the hottest new trance DJ / producers to emerge from Holland this past couple of years is Richard Durand. Comprising a unique, dynamic and devastating sound that embraces Trance, Techno and tough Electro this flying Dutchman initially made his mark as a solo producer with big Tech-Trance bombs on the Terminal 4 label, while the huge success of his remixes of Tiësto’s ‘Lethal Industry’, ‘Flight 643’ and ‘Break My Fall’, Fragma’s ‘Toca’s Miracle’ and Armin van Buuren’s ‘In And Out Of Love’, soon marked him as one of the hottest remixers on the planet. When Black Hole Recordings announced at the start of 2010 that there would be a new figurehead of their legendary ‘In Search Of Sunrise’ series of CDs previously fronted by Tiësto, there proved to be just one obvious successor to the throne – Richard Durand. Utilising 4 x CDJs and effects units, Richard Durand DJ sets are a whirlwind journey of cutting edge tunes, exclusive reworks, slick mixing and technical wizardry behind the decks. Be there.

John Askew
Nation: United Kingdom
No ifs, no buts … John Askew is without doubt one of the hottest Tech-Trance DJ/Producers in the world today. The luminary responsible for epic tracks like ‘Vellum’, ‘The Door’, ‘New Dimension’, ‘Chime’, ‘Fade to Black’, ‘Bored of You, Bored of Me’, and the legend behind no less than two critically acclaimed full-length artist albums (‘Lower the Tone and ‘Z List Uber Star’), it’s little wonder that his arsenal of tunes effortlessly grace the CD wallets of the world’s biggest Trance stars – including Eddie Halliwell, Tiesto, Armin van Buuren and Paul van Dyk (who has regularly called upon John’s silky remix skills to work magic on his globally revered Vandit label). With gigs in every corner of the globe – from Colombia to Cyprus via China – to his name over the last 24 months alone, John Askew is a Tech-Trance star that continues to shine ever brighter as each single, gig, album and week passes.

Ben Gold
Nation: United Kingdom
At just 25 years old Ben Gold is one of the most multi-talented names in the electronic dance scene. The son of the legendary Graham Gold, Ben combines a highly acclaimed career as a leading studio engineer with that of one of the brightest young stars in the trance scene, playing at some of the world’s leading clubs alongside world class DJ’s who all regularly fill their CD wallets with his latest works. A versatile producer who has seen tracks featured on leading compilations such as Ministry Of Sound’s Trance Nation Harder, Trance Nation Deeper and Europe’s biggest dance compilation, Dream Dance. As well as regularly winning plaudits such as Armin Van Buuren’s ‘Tune Of The Week’, Above and Beyond’s ‘Tune of the Week’ and often featured in Mixmag as their ‘Tune Of The Month’, Ben’s productions are also consistently featured on leading radio stations such as Radio 1, Galaxy and on leading radio shows, including ASOT by Armin van Buuren, Club Life by Tiesto and TATW by Above and Beyond.
