We’re Lost In Music’s 2014 in Review
Hi everyone!
As 2014 draws to a close, it seems apt that we take a look back at what the year has had to offer.
Ten Walls
Ten Walls continues to build
DJs, MusicXOYO, London (28th November)
Last week saw (friend of the blog) Catriona and I looking to relive some memories by going to see Ten Walls play a live set at XOYO London. Revisiting the moment the crowd carried out a sit down during Walking With Elephants at Unknown never fails to make me go a bit tingly (I love that I got to be part of that!), but was he going to live up to the memories back in the confines of a club venue in the UK? I would say he did, but in different ways.
Marijus Adomaitis had kept his identity secret for much of the early months of his new project under pseudonym Ten Walls. Although his secret is now out, his ever expanding army of fans will likely know him only as the latter and his brand continues to grow based on this. Armed with his soundboard and accompanying visuals, he had the audience captivated from the moment he hit the stage.
A tale of two festivals… Part II: Unknown Festival, Croatia, 2014 – Days 5 and 6
Bands, DJs, Festivals, MusicRovinj , Croatia (8th-12th September)
Featuring: John Talabot, Jamie XX, Eats Everything, Jungle, Ten Walls, Mano le Tough, Simian Mobile Disco, The 2 Bears, Waze & Odyssey, Disclosure, Last Waltz, Jackmaster
Thursday was the day of our Island Party and we were looking forward to seeing John Talabot and Jamie XX back to back. We optimistically (or perhaps pessimistically by this stage) looked out of the apartment window to be greeted by…torrential rain. Oh dear. It looked like the Island Party was unlikely, but, having not yet heard from those infamous mouths, we made our way down to the meeting point to find out whether it would be going ahead. With confirmation that is had indeed been cancelled, we were told that some of the artists from the cancelled Island and Boat Parties would be playing on the pool terrace during the afternoon – that was our plan sorted then! To our delight, one of those artists was Eats Everything! One of our highlights from Ibiza this season, Eats never fails to play for the crowd and always has a cheeky grin on his face. We couldn’t resist a photo opp…and of course a dance!
