All the way from Berlin, Dewalta is making his debut in the Comox Valley.
This Friday, the Mex Pub will transform into a glowing white theme party to celebrate minimal house music! With a background like Dewalta’s, the stage was set long ago for him to blast some serious holes in the fabric of music, time, and space.
Dewalta (a.k.a. David Koch) came from a large family in southern Germany filled with theater, literature, and music.
In 2003 Dewalta started to acquire studio equipment, experimented with different sounds, founded a disco band, and made his first forays into producing electronic music events. Berlin was also a vinyl paradise which David did not overlook, quickly amassing a collection delving deeper into electronic music.
His eclectic endeavors continued to dominate composing theatrical music, expanding his studio, studying jazz at the music college, and partaking in the bohemian urban paradise that was and still is Berlin.
By 2007 he founded his Meander label and began releasing his first electronic records. Just a year later long time friend and Vakant Records big daddy, snapped him up, leading to the drop of the “salgaro/farina” EP (va021) on the world’s dance floors.
With a bass presence not easily described in words and the musical expanse that floats on top of his debut Vakant release, Dewalta became instantly known to all those seeking massive funk with their freak. With so much music already under his belt and the platform that is Vakant, we envision a mad scramble of the world’s sound technicians to technically accommodate such a talent in the time to come.
Joining Dewalta, all dressed in white, are James Boatman (We Have Friends Music), a veteran of Vancouver’s thriving scene and Solomon Potashnick, DJ extraordinaire from Victoria with Island style party credentials flowing from his mixer.
Clothing and jewelry vendors will be on site to accent your brilliant attire. White theme dress is strongly encouraged for all!
Doors open at 10 p.m.
