A COLOURFUL SURPRISE READY FOR BLOOM AT MCQP

‘Flower Power’ is the theme for this year’s Mother City Queer Project on 18 December 2010. With so much to celebrate this year, including South Africa’s proud hosting of the World Cup 2010 and 150 years of flower sales at the Adderley street flower sellers market, this exclusive event, boasting an intriguing mystery reveal, promises to be even greater and greener than before, with Green Point Stadium as the appropriately chosen venue.

As the first post-World Cup lifestyle event to be held at Cape Town’s fantastic brand new stadium, MCQP organisers have raised the bar right to the top. Party-goers will experience five separate indoor levels and nine entertainment areas that each display a unique sub-theme. With comparisons being made with Sydney Mardi Gras and Rio Carnival, this fabulous event will set the stage for the stadium’s long-term post-World Cup goal of becoming the premier destination in South Africa for sports, cultural, music, entertainment and community events.

Guests are invited to commence their evening in style at the Mercedes Benz, Red Bull ‘Red Carpet’ Entrance, before mingling in the stadium’s various wine bars, non-smoking and smoking lounges, and for our special guests, the VIP Lounge. VIP ticket holders will be treated to full access to all areas, secure parking underneath the stadium, a Mercedes Benz drop off at the red carpet entrance and an exclusive VIP area with its own dance floor, toilets, snacks, bars and entertainment.

With special entertainment ranging from the 70s Dedicated Disco to the ‘Gay Athems’ Caberet dance floor as well as a live bandstand featuring Flash Republic from Johannesburg, whatever your preference in music and atmosphere, MCQP has the night covered. Guests can raise the tempo in the Hippie trance dance floor or even test their vocal skills at the X Factor live stage.
After weeks of buzz and curiosity regarding the ‘Big Reveal’, an exclusive surprise event with a strong gay focus about to take place at MCQP, we can now confirm that guests, celebrities and local and international media will finally bare witness to the very special unveiling of the ‘MCQP Mystery’…

Tickets are available on an early bird special at R180 for general entry and R350 for VIP during the month of NOVEMBER ONLY. Normal pricing resumes in December at R220 for general entry and R400 for VIP and are available from Computicket and selected venues around town.

DJ Dean FUEL Fans the Flames of SA’s Club Scene

It might seem easy to mix a few tracks together but it takes more than just turning tables to build up a track record like local deckmaster DJ Dean FUEL. What sets – and keeps – DEAN FUEL above the dime a dozen DJ’s popping up every other week is his distinctive knack for connecting with the crowd. A skill that helped get him noticed at his first unofficial gig in 2001 after he “nagged and convinced” his way onto the decks at a party, then kept the crowd going until long after closing. Almost hard to believe when you consider that the only hands-on experience he had up until then was practising on his pair of turntables at home with second-hand vinyls.

Born into a musical family – his father was a guitarist in the infamous S.A band, The Delians – FUEL grew up exposed to lots of different music and learnt to play the guitar and piano very young. But it was only after he attended his first underground raves that he discovered his passion – DJing. His biggest influence, he says, were DJ’s Carl Cox, Jeff Mills, Sasha and Digweed spinning the decks at these events. ‘Watching those wizards truly influenced what I wanted to do,’ he says.

FUEL’s come a long way since then and is now the only local spinner in SA to have played alongside 8 out of the top 10 DJs in the world. Some of his biggest events to date have been heating up the 7000-strong crowd for Jamiroquai a few years ago, performing alongside world-renowned SASHA in March 2009 and opening for the World’s number 1 ranking DJ for the last three years, Armin van Buuren, during the Godskitchen Boombox Tour in June 2009.

When he’s not mixing with the bigger fish at huge ‘raves’ and festivals, he’s keeping his local fans entranced with solo sets or alongside some of SA’s finest such as DJ Fresh, Ryan Dent, Erica Elle and Roger Goode. Between his main residencies at two of Cape Town’s ultimate haunts, Fridays at Karma Lounge in Camps Bay and Chevelle on Saturdays, he has also rocked the decks at bars and clubs around the country such as Club91 and The Bang Bang Club in Cape Town, Natural Groove and Truth in Johannesburg, 330 in Durban, Numbers in East London and 52 in Port Elizabeth.

And his music hasn’t stopped on our shores either. Dean FUEL’s mixes have travelled around the globe via various album releases such as his first international single, Sexy Hippie, a collaboration with Adam Metcalfe which was signed to Danish record label IBOGA Records in 2007. Since then, he’s joined forces with studio partner Sentrafuge to release Trippin’ Out on the House Anthems 4 album in 2007, This One’s For You on House Anthems 7 in 2008 and Wild Ride on Reloaded Vol.3 – Plastik Park in 2009. Currently he’s booked solid at clubs and parties around the country – including the Olmeca Tequila tour parties – and mixing and compiling the next Anthems album due for release in early 2010.
