SNOWBOMBING 2012 9-14 APRIL 2012 MAYRHOFEN, AUSTRIA
Snowbombing HQ has got another surprise up their sleeves for you lucky people! The World’s Greatest Show on Snow is proud to announce three more very special artists…
We’re pleased to welcome three awesome additions to the lineup that are sure to please an eager Snowbombing crowd. Joining Dizzee Rascal we now see Frankfurt’s finest – BOOKA SHADE (LIVE), British House taste-maker – SWITCH and Disco sensation – FAKE BLOOD! This triple packed addition of talent is set to make this year’s Snowbombing the most exciting yet!
Prolific German techno duo, BOOKA SHADE will be wrapping up warm and taking to the mountains for a spectacular live show. Ever busy in the studio, BOOKA SHADE will bring you live performances of tracks from their acclaimed albums; Memento, Movements and More! BOOKA SHADE have seen global success with production and remix duties for the likes of Depeche Mode, Moby, Yello, Hot Chip, Roxy Music, Kings of Leon, Tiga and The Knife, to name a few. The duo, comprising of Walter Merziger and Arno Kammermeier, were recently voted as one of the Top 5 Live Electronic Music Acts in the World by Resident Advisor. Their avalanche of dance music is certainly not one to be missed!
SWITCH, formally known as David Taylor, is the man behind many a musical anthem. He has got behind the production wheels for acts like M.I.A, Santigold, Christina Aguilera and even Beyonce! Some of his best work to date has been with long running studio partner Diplo under their Major Lazer moniker with their album “Guns don’t kill people… Lazers do!” Still in hot demand in the studio and on the stage, Switch is without a doubt one of the best names in British House Snowbombing has ever seen!
Finally, Snowbombing welcomes someone who you might recognise from British Big Beat duo The Wiseguys. Theo Keating, now known better as FAKE BLOOD completes the 4x4 announcement! After the incredible success of The Wiseguys, Keating went on to pursue his solo career as FAKE BLOOD. Still championing bold Disco breaks and lively funk samples, FAKE BLOOD saw his music rise through the UK charts in 2010 with “I Think I Like It”. Having graced remixes for Armand Van Helden, Underworld and Hot Chip, FAKE BLOOD is undoubtedly a tip-top treat that we are all dying to hear.
As one of the largest and most highly regarded resorts in the world Mayrhofen is completely taken over for a week long party of hedonistic adventure and extreme sport. The resort also boasts some of Europe’s most lavish spas so you can relax and enjoy the amazing spring sunshine and snowy mountains of one of Europe’s most snow-sure, late season winter resorts. The nearby Tux glacier (Austria’s highest lifted point) is also only a short (free) bus ride away, and although open all-year round, it’s at its best in spring.
Snowbombing is an entertainment and accommodation package, where you can choose a variety of accommodation options to suit your preferences and budget; from 5 star luxury Spa hotels, to pocket friendly pensions. You can add a variety of extras to build a package to suit you including a variety of lift passes, bespoke parties, including the infamous Arctic Disco and the bonkers Back Country Party plus ski & snowboard lessons, equipment hire and airport transfers.
Prices start from £289 for accommodation and all the entertainment. So don’t be shy, secure your place at the World’s greatest and wackiest show on snow. Click Here for tickets.
