Taking the friendly competition that has existed for centuries to a new level, the Latin nations of planet earth have amassed the technology, using whatever means at their disposal, to be the first to host a cosmic carnivale. ARGENTINA, MEXICO, COLOMBIA, BRASIL & even CUBA are in the race! These and many others are in contention for this desired accolade.
'Latin Space Race' or 'Carrera Espacial' takes local Latin events to a new astrological level. Everything Uber Lingua does is cutting edge and this party is no exception... Adopting a futuristic theme, Latin Space Race explores ultra-modern music, video, performance and costume sourced from the many Latin nations. Unlike other Uber Lingua parties this will have 5 rooms (2 up on usual) with a dedicated Argentinean room, a Brasilian Room and a Mexican room... with the bigger downstairs space and beer garden being more free-form and LIVE focused.
Performers and Punters alike should dust off their space suits for a launch into the stratosphere! DJs, MCs and musicians are being gathered from the Uber Lingua crews in Sydney and Melbourne (about 10) with a few coming from Canberra also, so it's one big gathering of east coast alterna-latinos! There are even rumors of MCs teleporting in from Wellington.
The Audience has a part to play also, upon entry each punter will be asked to vote for their Latin Nation of choice... encouraging the performers to 'bring their people'... Punters who wear Future-Latin fancy dress get a bonus vote! Punters who go as far as wearing a Hispanic Space Suit get TWO BONUS VOTES!!!! At 2.30am the winning nation of the Latin Space race will be determined and the victorious nation is awarded the final set of the night on the main room sound system with all other spaces closed down by that point, they will have the entire party at their disposal to drop their victory set! The competitive aspect of this event goes further with a moon walking competition held for the punters at the peak of the night.
Performing on the night we have the Sydney TIMBALADA posse, inspired by the Brasilian act by the same name this crew of sexy girls and hot bare chested Latin men drop a live Batucada percussion set that will bring down the house. Cuban reggaeton swooner POCHOMAN delivers a powerful set of vocal passion over modern beats dropped by local selector Mashy P. Likewise Columbian wordsmith and Radio skid row reggae presenter ALTAFARI works with African born DJ producer Jonah... Melbourne's CUMBIA COSMONAUTS drop a future cumbia set similar to what is popular in Argentina & Mexico at the moment, featuring Columbian accordion player Don Carlos Parraga Garcia Rico Urunena Ijo Mal Parido. Brasilian Baile funk MCs CITY OF GOD ELETRO brings the high tempo energy of the favelas to the crowd.
DJ wise the likes of Sydney prodigal son Gonzo the mad Peruvian (now living in Melbourne), DubChaman (Arg), Bruno LT (Rio), bP (Melb), saka la mois DJ (Mex), conquistador Michael Correa & Canberra's Panama Embassy (featuring DJs Angel & Brujo) will grace the decks. Guido Melo & his hip hop loving brother DJ Jurt from Rio, DJ Spex (Arg), Patto (Chile), Vapor (Chile), Mashy P (UK) & DJ Mono (Palacio Bros - Arg) are also on hand... with many more from other nations TBA...
