we’re always a bit late with our party reviews. but faux rivage is definitely worth to be remembered. well usually all of our parties are. but this one (which we co-organized with the main man mr. hobby from overdose and with copains sauvages) had sun, a lake + fireworks which made it probably to the party of 2010 so far.
-
we took advantage of the noisy festivities due to the swiss national holiday (actually the swiss national holiday is august 1. maybe it’s because bienne is not really that swiss that we do it one day earlier….?) and squatted a beautiful place in front of an empty block at the lake of our city (thanks to the guy who usually squats the place and who lent us his household stuff).
-
it started early in the afternoon with bbq, bathing people, romping children and summer music:
west coast hip-hop (daddy c), cumbia and françoise hardy (raphallus), live music (bienna dub orchestra) and old school electro (shool0mate 508) when it got darker.
-
the children left after the city of bienne had finished exploding a lot of money around 11.30 pm and the whole thing turned into a rave. the place got pretty overrun by an unexpected number of people. counted on the 420 liters of sold beer (big up to jrom who went on a mission and supplied us with more barrels from the place he works. and a huge big up to helena. without her the bar would have collapsed) and the unknown amount of vodka, there must have been kind of many.
the party went on until the morning with tech music from milwaukee, goodman and c-me (copains sauvages), experimental live electronics from feldermelder, dubstep and bass music from zenit and faust (bass vandalizm), percussive tribal afro house and uk funky from raphallus (bass vandalizm) and deepness from mr. hobby.

big big up to the peaceful party crowd. and yes we were lucky that the police only got there by around 10 am when there was nothing left than a dozen of confused jaw chomping kids looking for their shoes or something…
-
stay tuned. the coming party season starting next week gonna be huge!
