After just 25 years we’re holding the last Blonde party. We’re delighted to be back on the rooftop at Century, where we have held so many wonderful events.
Tim Red and Luke vB will be joined by Jon Dasilva (Hacienda), who was one of our original guests for Blonde at AKA.
Few of today’s DJs can boast a pedigree like Jon Dasilva, who was recently voted in at #25 in Iconic Magazine reader’s poll of All Time Top 50 DJs.
Considered to be Hacienda’s most singular resident DJ, Jon Dasilva was fresh to the scene in ’87, finding DJ inspiration in the House and Disco Djs of deepest New York and Chicago, amidst a sea of influences from Bowie to Dub Reggae to Kosmische Musik to Dicso. His broad musical tastes and ability to work so many genres into proper dance floor action mark Dasilva out as a next level DJ, taking his cues from the greats that inspired him, including Francois Kevorkian, Ron Hardy and Lil Louis. A lesser known side of his influence was Jon’s inspired warm up sets at the Hacienda.
It’s been an incredible adventure for us and we felt so lucky to get the chance to play the places we did with many of our absolute heroes of the scene.
Thank you also to the amazing people who made Blonde so special for us. We look forward to dancing with you one last time.
