PARTY AGAIN?
THE OUTSIDERS’
The Outsiders party is an experience of music and eye catching interactive installations that will make you look before you leap. We want to give artists an opportunity to experiment outside the regular artcircuit. We are calling all creatives in any genre and art students from all departments to contribute, participate and interact with each other. We want to create a platform where people from different media backgrounds can meet and exchange ideas. The style of music that you can expect will be a strong back beat and a heavy dub sound that will rock your body and get your fingers popping. From old soul and funk moving into disco and hiphop topped off with some snappy ear cracking techno and a blend of bebop jazz. The atmosphere is generally positive and the Outsiders create a place for people from all walks of life to meet and greet and get down to the get down. Want some get some, better yet take some!
