BERLIN MINIMAL AT THE MEX

All the way from Berlin, Dewalta is making his debut in the Comox Valley. Friday May
11th sees DELIGHT return to the Mex Pub and transform it into a glowing white theme
party to celebrate minimal house music! With a background like Dewalta�s, the stage
was set long ago for this yougin to blast some serious holes in the fabric of music,
time, and space. Dewalta a.k.a. David Koch budded from a large family in southern
Germany filled with theater, literature, and music. Early schooling came in the form of
the interdisciplinary Waldorf school (also home to electronic pioneers Abe Duque and
John Selway) tasked with nothing less than helping young people fulfill their unique
destinies.

In 2003 Dewalta started to acquire studio equipment, experimented with different
sounds, founded a disco band, and made his first forays into producing electronic music
events. Berlin was also a vinyl paradise which David did not overlook, quickly amassing
a collection delving deeper into electronic music. His eclectic endeavors continued to
dominate composing theatrical music, expanding his studio, studying jazz at the music
college, and partaking in the bohemian urban paradise that was and still is Berlin.

By 2007 he founded his meander label and began releasing his first electronic records.
Just a year later long time friend and Vakant Records big daddy, snapped him up
leading to the drop of the "salgaro/farina" EP (va021) on the world's dance floors. With
a bass presence not easily described in words and the musical expanse that floats on
top of his debut Vakant release, Dewalta became instantly known to all those seeking
massive funk with their freak. With so much music already under his belt and the
platform that is Vakant, we envision a mad scramble of the world�s sound technicians to
technically accommodate such a talent in the time to come.

Joining Dewalta, all dressed in white, are James Boatman (We Have Friends Music), a
veteran of Vancouver�s thriving scene and Solomon Potashnick, DJ extraordinaire from
Victoria with Island style party credentials flowing from his mixer.

Clothing and jewelry vendors will be on site to accent your brilliant attire.

White theme dress strongly encouraged for all!

$10 Cover, Doors at 10pm.
