LABVAKAR, LATVIJA!

Hello, dear Friends!
This is a serious one.
Well, we heard some critics, and we feel ourselves, that there is a problem.
So we have an idea how to solve it.
This is very experimental solution, so we dont know yet how good it will be.
We re talking about Face-Control. As we’ve seen some very unpleasant behaviour from some of the visitors, we decided to somehow reduce the amount of random, unknown persons in Space:Garage.
How we gonna do it? We will let in only people with flyers or the ones on the guestlist.
Flyer will be not available to everyone, it will be sent to people we know trough the e-mail.
These people are welcome to send the flyer to people they know and want to see in Space:Garage.
So this way everyone is kind of responsible. But again, this is experiment and it might not work.
We will see.
The bottom line:
in few hours you will recieve a special flyer to your mailboxes, on draugiem.lv, one.lv and such..
You can pass it to your friends.
If you havent recieved it, you can write to us to -contactforfriendship-(åt)-gmail.com.
But in this case, please provide your name or somehow make sure we know you. If the only information will be your e-mail adress like kisaxxx69 or something, it will not be accepted. The same way you can apply to guestlist.

Lets try then.

And also this Friday’s party itself suggests more intimate atmosphere, than usual.
Apart from usual minimal techno vibes we have a special guest from Moscow - DJ Vobla.
The style of her sets is usually described as “The Disco of the Pioneer Camp”.
That means soviet, russian, italian and all possible pop-hits mixed alltogether.
But, suddenly it doesnt sound cheasy, but rather elegant and veeeery entertaining. :)
Besides, Vobla (real name - Jana Zhukova) have a long and dramatic relations with our city.
Like, only few months ago, she had hundreds of offers to play on Russian Oligarchs parties, along with Pugacheva and Kirkorov, but now she is living quietly in Singalong hostel.
Another special guest on Friday - DJ Datashock, which is a secret nickname of Ivars Mednis.
Dj Datashock has spent some time collecting rare records from the beginning of the techno era.
Think - old-school hardcore jungle, early techno, acid and rave anthems.
Plus special appearance of Bar-Jockeys Arnis & Dima Jakuzzi.
This Friday, Fabruary 29. in Space:Garage.
Entrance ONLY with flyers or guestlist.

The picture below is NOT a flyer. Real flyers will be sent trough e-mails.

Aye! See you soon!

* Be sure to check the Rigatronic track on Jay Edit myspace, which he wrote, as he say: to show my respect for your amzing city and people. Appreciate it a lot, Jay! Thanks!
Also, unexpectedly we got to know, that Jay is back to Riga on 8th of March, and it seems he is going to join Dave DK, who is playing in Space:Garage on this day.

VINYL IS BACK IN TOWN

Hola!
Riga have seen a few attempts to open “real” record shop. None of them survived, unfortunately. While paying respect to those who tried, we welcome 33/45 - new record shop in Riga. New shop claims to cover a good selection of modern dance music. With no doubt we’re going to support this important detail in Riga’s club scene.

So, this Friday, February 8., Space:Garage is hosting 33/45 Record store Opening Party.
Featuring special guests from Mannheim, not the last city on German dance music map. Mannheim, among other things is famous by hosting Timewarp festival, one of the largest electronic music events in Europe.
On Friday we have two of Timewarp residents - Nekes and Jay Edit. Nekes is also known for his Oslo records - house/techno label, which he is running together with Federico Molinari and which was voted “best newcomer label 2007″ in Germany. Supported by our resident DJ - Kone.
So, that is what gonna happen this Friday.
Flyer (as usual) is here.

The shop itself will be located on Dzirnavu 43 and will share the space with Ripo Skateshop.
Working hours, starting from Friday, February 8.:
monday till friday: 11.00-19.00

saturday: 11.00-16.00

See you soon and have a nice week!
