Anthony Pappa Review at Zouk
The night began as usual with people gathered in front of Zouk awaiting entry… or at least the means of entry. The resident DJ spins his trance as the crowd, decked out in fashionable raving gear, work up the courage to flood the dance floor, or simply waiting for the mood to kick in.
The resident DJ then steps down, making way for the headlining Aussie, Anthony Pappa. He breaks down the previous set to a simple rambling bass. He then steps up the droning bass into darker breakbeat with R2D2 similarity sound effects splattering in the background. After introducing the family of sounds that is to continue through his set, he breaks it down once more and builds it back up to a funky string release backed by trance. At this point, most people were dancing in their hearts and worked the dance floor with the additional stimulation from lasers, lights as well as individual LED dancers witch was an amazing sight to behold.
More breakdowns and releases follow until one of the finest peaks of the session; atmospheric sound-scope carried further by high-pitched clicks and beeps intricately arranged. Thus creating a robotechy but melodious beats. The courage Anthony Pappa had to create the contrast between atmospheric scopes and static was refreshing. He continues further with some dark acid. What Anthony Pappa brought forth was the bravery to mix in clicks and beeps as well as his ability to reenergizes the audience with his breakdowns and releases. All his skills were backed by a generally dark ambience. Fantastic!
