Balance w/ James Zabiela @ Brown Alley – Feb 2nd
Darkbeat is thrilled to welcome back one of their favourite sons, the enigmatic James Zabiela for a special extended set to launch of his new ‘Balance Series 029’ album.
In an era obsessed with fetishizing the ‘old-school’ James Zabiela has always boldly rejected this view. He has championed new technology, pushing their capabilities beyond belief and in turn inspired a generation of DJ’s who aren’t afraid of taking risks.
“Your turntables can do that…OK well watch this!”
Beyond taking risks with his technical prowess, James Zabiela has never shied away from mixing genres, styles and tempos in ways not often seen. You never know when he might drop in a drum n bass interlude followed by classic 80s synth pop into storming techno. And you know what, it always rocks.
James Zabiela has a long and rich history with Darkbeat, Brown Alley and Melbourne. Finally, he has solidified himself into folklore by creating his masterpiece, Balance 29. Join us for what will undoubtedly be one of the shows of the year.
