Good Life @ The Vaults, Cardiff Bay
Wed 31 Oct
Lo-fi house favourite Tristan Hallis, aka DJ Boring, returns to Cardiff as The Vaults continues to build on its impressive list of bookings. A freaky night littered with high quality house and techno beneath the streets of Cardiff awaits; promoters Good Life promise to give The Vaults the makeover treatment, bringing their notoriously twisted décor to the party.
DJ Boring is a stand-out name in the announcements made for a new term of electronic bookings throughout the city. Once the mysterious figure behind Winona, a pivotal track in the birth of the lo-fi house movement, Hallis’ cult following has developed into a genre-wide reverence. And credit where it’s due, you’d be hard pushed to find an artist more deserving. The Aussie is famed for his catering to the crowd and setting, spinning a superb mix of disco and sunlit house tracks at day parties before delving into a collection of fist-pump techno as the sun goes down and the strobes emerge.
For Tahn, Boring’s latest EP on UK label Shall Not Fade, highlights his aptitude as a producer as well as a selector. The deeper into his back catalogue you go, the more justification for his popularity you’ll find. Expect the finest tricks and treats from a DJ at the top of his game.
Tickets: £12/£10. Info: www.vaultspresents.com CHARLIE COTTRELL
