The tireless Tomoki Tamura, who just held an eight-year anniversary event in London then appeared at Sonar Week, Barcelona the next day, showcasing Rick Wade, Robert Dietz, and Tuccillo on his HOLIC TRAX label, is returning to WOMB to lead the party/label HOLIC!
This edition of HOLIC will be Tomoki Tamura's first event since his Open to Last set which created a frenzy of excitement on Valentine's Day. It will feature a live set by pioneer artist Soichi Terada who has released many records, with a focus on Far East Record (his own label), since the dawn of Japan's house scene.
Around the '80s and '90s, Soichi Terada released Larry Levan playing at Paradise Garage on his own label. This phantasmagorical collection of sound was re-released this year on the illustrious Dutch label Rush Hour and is getting enthusiastic attention worldwide all over again.
The second guest for the night has also been decided: Sprinkles aka Terre Thaemlitz! A genius deep house DJ with a background in the 1980s Manhattan club scene, Sprinkles aka Terre Thaemlitz is armed with filter and echo effects, which he uses with complete mastery. His mixing style reveals his genius, in the way he softens the edge on sounds with his filters or creates dreamy effects using the echo. It's a must see act.
In the VIP Lounge, Japanese house resident artist Toshiyuki Goto will be our guest and we'll be holding Ugly, presided over by You Forgot. Oath's specialty house party will serve as the host and the space will be abuzz with old and new house, jazz, disco, and rare groove. There will be a grand assembly of HOLIC-related artists in both Womb Lounge and the Middle Lounge as well.
Just as you would expect with a title like Back to Paradise, this is destined to be a rare midsummer night's party!
