The vinspired Lake of Stars Festival takes place in Malawi, deep in the heart of Africa:
October 15th - 18th 2009
Keep an eye on here for info on the festival and on the many global vinspired Lake of Stars events planned for 2009.
'In today's saturated festival climate Lake of Stars is utterly unique: Lake of Stars unites myriad people from all over the world whether NGO workers, adventurous festival goers, backpackers, Malawians, and South Africans, through the universal language of music. It's a sharp reminder of what festivals should be about, and combined with the stunning setting, unbelievably friendly locals, and dizzying range of music, Lake of Stars stimulates, challenges, opens your eyes and ears, and redefines the festival experience as we know it.
THERE ISN'T ANOTHER FESTIVAL LIKE THIS ON THE PLANET'

Since 2004, autumn in Malawi has seen the Lake of Stars Festival take place on the palm fringed shores of Africa’s third largest lake: Lake Malawi. The festival raises money for charity, promotes Malawian music and provides travellers and Malawians alike with the opportunity to enjoy fantastic live music in an exotic and beautiful location. International and African artists share the stage -so far Seth Lakeman, Annie Mac, Groove Armada’s Andy Cato, Felix B (Basement Jaxx), Yewande (US), the Chibuku DJs, Bugz in the Attic’s Mikey General, Ben Westbeech (Brownswood), Rodney P & Skitz (1Xtra), Blue African Skies, Goldfish and Oskido have all journeyed out to the warm heart of Africa to perform. Joining them have been some of the biggest names in Malawian music – Tikhu Vibrations, Wambali, the Black Missionaries, Lucius Banda, Joseph Tembo and Tay Grin to name a few. Performances range from African jazz and gospel groups to beatboxers, circus performers, and DJs.
We are finally ready to start promoting my 'I Surrender' single with my album, 'Ella Trip' coming right after -yey!! What d'ya think to the video teaser?

Not too late to get advance tickets for my shows coming up - including two tickets for £5 for my Birmingham gig (3 Nov). And remember I'm playing with Ebb at the ICA in London (9 Nov) - this is a very special performance and it would be great to see you there. /MaJiKer
"Larry and I would blow up balloons, set up the food bar, prepare the punch, and give out acid, but we also spent a lot of time in the DJ booth, watching Nicky's every move. He pretty much taught us what he was doing". says Frankie Knuckles We're doing another Love Fever Party on November 7th... This time we've got NYC Legend Nicky Siano over for a proper disco session. We'll be putting our usual Love Fever attention to detail into the sound system, decor, staff, artwork, balloons, roller girls, projections, etc. And music wise we're got a Funktion One system and two rooms of underground disco new and old. Expect a night of disco fuelled Love Fever debauchery. www.lovefever.org for tickets and info ..
