“Foreplay” will get you excited for Love Parade by bringing together an unreal collection of West Coast tribal/breaks/house/world talent on 4 soundsystems. Featuring some of the leading DJ’s in California’s world/breaks scene and the unparalleled intensity of the Mutaytor, Foreplay promises to be a legendary meeting of the beats. The 25 piece music/dance/performance art behomth known as the Mutaytor is a part hip-grinding, techno/retro-funk, part audience-interactive, post-modern circus, the first durable chunk of American music to emerge from the Burning Man subculture. Combining drastically advanced elements of the Blue Man Group, Parliament-Funkadelic, the Crystal Method and Crash Worship, Mutaytor provides riotous and surreal entertainment for everyone. The sound is tight with over 100 drums sounding like one sinstrument, the show manic, and the vibe all-inclusively friendly.
The brainchild of Brazilian natives Alex Koberle and Emiliano Benevides and Americano bassist Carl Remde, Bat Makumba is the crossroads between the traditional music of their equatorial homeland and the punk, rock and funk influences of the U.S. locals to San Francisco. Bat Makumba’s show is a hip renegade carnival party full of tropicalia tinged ska, punk-influenced forro, and rock-infused samba. DJ Laird has quickly become one of the Bay Area’s most sought after DJ’s being named to the coveted “Nitevibe Dreamteam” svereal years running. Janaka [Selekta] is the founder of Dhamaal, SF’s premier South Asian arts collective, and a star in his own right.
