If you haven’t sorted your plans for New Year’s Eve in Peterborough and fancy a party how about joining two masters on the turntables for a great night to see in 2024?
Eclectic Ballroom and The Queen’s Head in Peterborough are bringing us a blockbuster event on Sunday December 31 with two fantastic DJs – A.Skillz and BOCA45 – fusing
hip hop, funk, disco and soul, at break neck speeds.
A.Skillz is a true party rocker behind the turntables, captivating crowds with his ability to embrace all aspects of music that he takes inspiration from and mash them up into a unique cocktail, infused with his own signature flavour of funk.
With his DJ bookings taking him to the four corners of the world, he has appeared on stages big and small and no matter what venue or style, he brings the house down.
Having clocked up over six million + plays on his Soundcloud page, his records have gained the support of the biggest names in the industry, from Jazzy Jeff to Pete Tong, Annie Mac to Zane Lowe, whilst his DJ mixes have won over an army of supporters and resulted in him being commissioned by Radio 1 to put together a special DJ mix for their Beatles tribute night, that even had Paul McCartney tapping his feet.
Here is a little taste of what to expect:
BOCA45 (Scott Hendy) immersed himself in all things hip hop from a young age and has been unleashing funky gemstone productions on the world for years under his various guises. He formed Dynamo Productions with Portishead’s acclaimed resident DJ Andy Smith in the early 00’s and they found a new place musically, fusing the best elements of hip hop, funk and beats.
The duo quickly picked up a residency at Fabric live and found themselves taking their new sound across the globe. Boca45 is also obviously a DJ of some renown having taken to the stage across the world's clubs and festivals.
Banksy personally requested him to DJ at the opening party for Dismal Land in 2015 and he can also include Serge from Kasabian, Geoff Barrow (Portishead), Huey Morgan and Craig Charles at BBC Radio 6 as part of his large group of fans.
