The Royal Weekender – Zouk’s 15th Anniversary Trilogy To mark the milestone that is 15 years, Zouk is throwing a massive 3 day event, headlined by the djs that have made milestones in history for their genres- from techno God Jeff Mills, to Hip Hop mixmasters The Mixologists and MC Trip , to our very own local heroes residents djB, Sonny and Aldrin. The lineup in Zouk, Phuture & Velvet Underground over the 3 day festivities is a reflection of Zouk's consistent policy of pushing the musical envelope and supporting and showcasing as many genres as possible; moving seamlessly from techno to hip hop and drum & bass, deep, minimal house to garage and eclectic beats + lots of live elements but always maintaining the quality. And as is customary, celebrations at Zouk are never just about the music, they are major productions in themselves! The Crystal Ball, Part 3 of Zouk’s 15th Anniversary Trilogy will be no different! This is one long weekend at Zouk you sure don’t want to miss! Read On! The Royal Weekender – Zouk’s 15th Anniversary Trilogy, Part 1: Jeff Mills (US) Thursday 13 Apr 2006 at Zouk Arguably, the biggest techno export from the US, and still remaining current as ever, Jeff Mills is back on his 6th visit to Zouk, in time to kick off our 3-day 15th anniversary in style! This is also a special year for Jeff, as he celebrates 10 years of “The Bells” – his seminal cult single released in ’95 that took the dance music world by storm. A must have in every techno djs’ record box, “The Bells” is still currently heard in almost every techno set, making it THE most played track in the history of techno! Let’s not forget his lightning speed 3-deck wizardry that continues to amaze clubbers and win new fans throughout the world. So ladies and gentleman…. stand by!
