Music : House, Hard Dance and Drum and Bass
In the most exciting recent announcement in Welsh clubbing, one of the most successful ever dance events – The Evolution Experience – is returning to the Pembrokeshire scene after six years away. On Friday 21st March (Good Friday), the Matisse Music Venue in Haverfordwest will be transformed into an ‘Oz’-themed extravaganza to host the reunion of the original Evolution Experience team of DJs and performers, with German superstars, Cosmic Gate, confirmed for the headline slot.
The return of The Evolution Experience has been a long time in coming. Following its inception in August 2000, this small band of promoters and DJs rocked a sleepy corner of Wales for over eighteen months with a string of sell-out events, which led to it being dubbed ‘The biggest, loudest night in Wales’ by clubbers’ bible, Mixmag. The team aimed high, and brought big name talent and top-end production to west Wales for the first time, and the this formula proved a hit, drawing punters from across south and mid-Wales, and establishing The Evolution Experience as a nationally recognised entertainment brand.
Back together for another bite of the cherry, the team have secured one of their strongest ever line-ups, with Trance duo, Cosmic Gate, currently storming the European charts with their new CD, ‘Back to Back 3’ (featuring smash hit, ‘Firewire’), flying in for the vaunted headline performance. Strong support comes from Welsh wonders, Danny Slade and Jason P, and the original Evolution Experience residents, and the second room will play host to Welsh star and veteran DJ, Lomas, and the cream of local talent on the decks. There are many more DJs to be confirmed.
In addition, professional club décor companies will transform the club into a stunning ‘Emerald City’ for one night only, in line with the event’s ‘No Place Like Home’ theme. Finally, clubbers can expect the famous Evolution Experience production values, with a huge PA, and top quality lighting being brought in especially for the event.
Tickets are priced at £12 in advance and more on door, and are available from a range of outlets across south and west Wales. Limited VIP passes are available at £25, and include a host of extras such as priority entry, chill-out balcony access, and a champagne reception. Buses will run from a number of destinations. For more information, visit www.evolution-experience.co.uk or search ‘Evolution Experience’ on Facebook to join the group, and keep up to date on the latest developments.
