Angelspit in Singapore

Come 5 December 2008, the Singapore Dark Alternative Movement (SDAM) will revolutionise local club culture once more with internationally-acclaimed electro-industrial talents, DJs DestroyX & Zoog (Angelspit) of Australia / Germany respectively. As the only club event featuring exclusively Gothic / Industrial / Electronic Body Music (EBM) / Darkwave / Future Pop music in Singapore, Dark Fridays fourth installment promises another stellar night of mayhem and misdemeanors for devotees of the Goth subculture and dark alternative music.

Headlining Decembers event are DJs DestroyX & Zoog (Angelspit), hailing from Sydney, Australia and Berlin, Germany respectively. Formed in 2004 in Sydney, Australia, the eclectic duo featuring Amelia DestroyX Tan on vocals and Karl Zoog Learmont on keyboards has won the dark hearts of fans from all over with their innovative blend of electro-industrial music, featuring DestroyXs sublime vocals layered with a crushing bass and stomping beats. This overwhelming success has seen DJs DestroyX and Zoog supporting preeminent industrial legends such as Front Line Assembly, KMFDM and the Cruxshadows on their world tours. As an added benefit, the 5 December installment of Dark Friday will mark the official Asian Record Release Party of Angelspits third album, Blood Death Ivory.

Hot off the success of the inaugural Dark Friday held at Legends @ Orchard on 5 September 2008, followed-by a sequel on 3rd October, the SDAM has breathed life into local club culture with an exclusive and bonafide Gothic / Dark Alternative clubbing experience held at a new haven within the walls of MOONSHINE. The benchmark-setting event has drawn considerable attention as the new and emerging Mecca of Dark Alternative Music in Southeast Asia, since hosting on separate occasions, DJ Panic of the notorious Slimelight Goth club in London and DJ Eskil Simonsson of Sweden's darkwave kings Covenant.

As Dark Friday is held as a social imperative to promote the Goth and dark alternative subculture in Singapore, a reasonable S$10 cover will be requested of all patrons. The uninitiated will find their musical sensibilities bombarded with EBM, industrial, goth and electro. Yet familiar dark alternative anthems are likely to be spun amidst new, groundbreaking releases with local deck surgeons DJ Saito Nagasaki (Aesgrade), DJ Mentor (Xho in a guise) and DJ Murderfreak in tow.

Dark Friday has also attained international sponsorship from global publishing and promotion company NetManagement who has remained staunch in support since the Machines Against Hunger launch and charity event (Beneficiary Action against Hunger) for Singapore and Southeast Asia by SDAM, held on Friday, 13thJune 2008. As part of their gracious gesture to relinquish one Friday a month to the alternative social collective, MOONSHINE has adapted quickly to SDAMs devoted denizens, serving up S$15 absinthe shots while also providing a cosmopolitan outlook on their unique and vibrant aesthetics.
