‘Dancing shoes
and pretty girls, boys in leather kiss girls in
pearls’, the lyrics once recited by the biggest
band of eighties pop seemed pretty apt last night
when entering Pacha London for the seriously glamorous
Rockcity. Sexy dancers seductively shimmied around
poles in minimalist white outfits to funky and soulful
sounds, capsulated by an atmosphere so electric
and surrounded by some of London’s most beautiful
clubbers.
Rockcity hit the capital for its second instalment
after the phenomenal success of its first event
back in November. Promoted by Italian duo Manuela
and Rosario, best known for their well established
night Vertigo at The Cross, Rockcitys aim was to
bring together London’s most glamorous clubbers
for a celebration of colour and style. And they
certainly did!
With as much effort put into the décor and
theme of the club as there was with the DJ line
up, these guys are definitely on to a winning formula.
American DJ Kenny Carpenter, a forefather of dance
music, headlined the night. He emerged onto the
club scene in the 70’s and has continuously
developed his sound to stay at the top. A favorite
of many clubbers his sound is his soul with a hint
of Balearic beats and vocal anthems thrown in, cumulating
into a set that has your feet moving non stop to
the beat and your body gyrating across the baseline.
Kenny played alongside Azuli front man David Piccioni,
House FM’s Tony Nicholls, Jeffrey Hinton from
Drama/Queer Nation and Vertigo resident Micky Guy.
Between them they provided 2 rooms of music which
complemented each other brilliantly.
Pacha London has enjoyed immense success since opening
just over 2 years ago and it’s not surprising.
Not only is it beautiful, the Moroccan feel to room
2 with the leather beds, not only look good they
make for the best chill out area – but the
service is second to none with both security and
staff being amongst the most polite known to club
land…it makes for a pleasurable night out.
Rockcity will be held at Pacha London on the 5th
Saturdays of the month, with the next event on 29th
May. This is a night to check out if you like to
dress up and get down to the signature sound known
to Pacha worldwide. |
