Beats Pacifik and The Downbeat are proud to present:
Back to Back, a night dedicated to the inability to plan. Pairing DJs with The Guru, with little practice and no plan to bring the full spontaneity of professionals reading the dancefloor. Back to Back features a mix of genres to take you on a journey through the spectrum of electronic music.
The fourth edition is very special as not only does it mark one year since the idea first came to fruition after a telephone call from the downbeat and 24 hours to plan and promote, it’s also Guru’s birthday.
So to start the night we will have RyGuy, everybody’s favorite and an absolute House and UKG legend of the island paired with Guru for a legendary opening set of wobbly basslines and jackin’ house steppers. Next we are so excited to be able to feature the smooth side of Drum n’ Bass with Spoon, a talent that has been rocking the floors of Victoria and beyond for ages. Guru and Spoon will bring a sultry smooth liquid vibe topped with some DnB stompers to ease into the madness that awaits. For our final pairing, we’re welcoming back the duo that started it all, Bogman and once again, Guru. One year ago, the legend that helped to create the Deepwest Soundsystem Crew came together with Guru to provide some of the highest energy hardest hitting, amen smashing Jungle that they could muster. And believe us when we say Bogman and Guru can and will bring the roof down.
