Overknights feat. Tom B. - Feb 17th 2011!!

Next Thursday we'll be hosting a special gig with Dj Tom B., straight from Paris!
We must say we have a thing for Brasil, especially Biga who had the pleasure to meet Thomas last year as he exported his own personal selection of brasilian tunes out to the Favela Chic in Paris...
Since then Biga and us were just waiting for the right time to turn that gig around and have Tom B. over here in Florence... so, now, the time has come:
Thursday, February 17th 2011 @ Cargo, Firenze!!

Thomas Bignon aka Tom B is known for spinning Funk, Brazil, Bootlegs, Latin, Afro, Disco, Broken, Live House, Hip Hop, Brazilian and Jamaican Jungle... ! He's been active on Paris' black music scene for over 15 years as an acid jazz bass player, a funk band manager, event organizer and music journalist. Of course as well as being a Dj and founder of the Booty Shakers Crew and the Redo De Suinge, an international network of brasilian spinnin' dj's. He's a Dj resident for the Avenida Brasil parties, the Favela Chic, the Rua Carioca parties as well as official Dj for Paris' Samba schools!! (Zabumba, Aquarela, Sambatuc, Bloco de Paris)

So if you're around you probably don't wanna miss this funky samba sound....
Cargo, Florence, FREE ENTRY!!

Overknights feat. King Bleso - Jan 14th 2011 - Firenze

We'll be proudly hosting a gig with one of our favorite funk dj's as well as one of the leading figures of the italian hip hop / ragga scene the early 90's ('Isola Posse All Stars', 'Sangue Misto', 'Sud Sound System'..).
Many projects, collabo's and alias' throughout the years ('Gopher D', 'Unto Ke', 'Bleso Wastasi') have brought King Bleso to explore hip hop, raggamuffin and funk, as a beatmaker, mc and musician not to mention his earliest musical efforts in what would be his 'first love': punk rock ('Rabid Duck').
His latest project called 'King Bleso & The Voodoo Soul Unlimited' goes back to playing the instruments releasing a tasty, percussive funk/rock album called 'Oku'.
As a Dj he travels only with his 45's treasure box filled with funk, soul and rock jams that are able to move your feet for you....;)
So we strongly suggest anyone around Florence and in the need of some serious funk to come down to Cargo on the 14th of January...
Entrance is FREE... aka Drinks on YOU, Music on US....
